Why do the national weather forecasters keep giving forecasts for
Glastonbury after the music has begun?

It is pretty certain that few festival-goers will take time out from
viewing the main (or any other) stage in order to watch the national
weather forecast, and the people at home and sitting in front of their
TV are not going to be affected by the Glastonbury weather.

So, why bother?

…..and, yes I am an insufferable cynic.

Because we are all assumed to be agog at this jamboree of juvenile crap and the cloth-eared musical retards in attendance. It's pop music; nothing else matters. Woo, that was a bit nasty, wasn't it. Well, poo to Glastonbury, so there.

Given that the Rolling Stones are performing this year, probably a lot
closer to 'senile' than 'juvenile'...

You are absolutely right. Probably the weather forecasting stuff is
being promoted by the BBC? They have nothing left in their repertoire
except that and Wimbledon.

Well some people are interested in it, just because YOU PERSONALLY
aren't interested doesn't mean that it is irrelevant or anyone else is
somehow wrong or inferior for enjoying or taking an interest.

Clearly Tudor feels that his trombone is far superior to any music that
might be performed at this tacky music festival called 'Glastonbury'.

There are a whole range of musical styles on offer at Glasto, does he
not like *any* of them?

To dismiss it all as 'crap' seems very sniffy to me and smacks of
'musical snobbery'.

Off topic? Well whatever.....

That's what I said - we're all supposed to be agog, hence the forecast. Personally I think the music is puerile and shouty. I was a big fan of the Beatles and Buddy Holly etc but that was nearly 50 years ago and one has to move on FFS.

Neil Young and Lenny Cohen were excellent when they performed and I'd call their music a bit more than 'ppo'.

You're just 'avin' a pop Tudor.

Tudor has always loved the trombone over all other types of instruments . My uncle was like that he always use to say "sod all that dragging across strings and banging the ivories; give me a blow job with an old brass" any day of the week.
