![]() Neil Young and Lenny Cohen were excellent when they performed and I'd call their music a bit more than 'ppo'. pop even You're just 'avin' a pop Tudor. The great thing about Glastonbury is that there's a huge range of music, to suit just about all tastes. Also, the Festival seems to being out the best performances. Neil Young was great, certainly not a has been, as were Madness and Mumford & Sons, all different eras & musical types. It's the lesser known ones that can spring a real surprise. I'm a fan of a local band who I think are brilliant & are perforning at Glastonbury for the 2nd time ( http://www.3daftmonkeys.co.uk/ sort of music hall meets folk rock, I don't expect it to be televised ) just a couple of years ago they were playing for free in The Lifeboat - St. Ives & you could tell they had future. One of my great musical letdowns was getting to Cardiff to see the Stones only to find the gig was cancelled as Keef had cut his finger. I'll be recording them tonight, as they must near an end now.

You are not quite there, in terms of old, but you are nevertheless foul. In which country is someone of hughes' age not considered old? I will be when I get to his age and I'll be happy to be called old. "Grumpy old man" is a idiom, idiot. Get a life, or get out of Sydenham- an area you clearly hate and you might like your present life better. |

Graham Penzance Further to the Stones: 'Keef' has come up with some of the best riffs in rock. Funny enough Graham the last time I drove to Cornwall and Perranporth twice in 1980 (long bloody journey) to the sounds of 'Start Me Up' and the song that reminds me of Perranporth 1973 was 'Angie'. |

Woo, that was a bit nasty, wasn't it. Well, poo to Glastonbury, so there. Tudor Hughes, Warlingham, Surrey. As a baby boomer the Stones relate to my salad days but I don't mind Glastonbury. On TV naturally, there's no way I'd go near the place these days. There's dross but some good stuff too. The original poster has a point though, a weather forecast for those in attendance is useless. -- Jim |
