I've been really liking this singer, but her latest single is just Today by the smashing pumkins and where is my mind by Pixies. I suppose if you're going to steal...but it made me chuckle that her audience in the main think her ripping off these is like Oasis ripping of T Rex for us.

Did The Black Angels last night at New Century House 

"New" venue 

Decent 

Like a modern Academy

Venue is upstairs, downstairs is a food hall bar setup, also decent, would return for a non gig session 

Busy out everywhere in the NQ as well

Oasis ripped off T Rex? I never thought that!

Quite like to go there since its redevelopment - looks great.

also, at the new century bar

there was a quiz going on, we were only there for a pint but whilst there it was the music round, so sort of joined in with table next to us

10 songs played, name the artist/song then at the end the year

prince was on first, knew it was 1984, but then, they played Carless Whisper

100% for me that's George Michael, but 84 seems a bit early 

this lad was 100% it was Wham, but I was having none of it, little prick wasn't even born then

wasn't around when they read the answers, so been having a look

Spotify as you'd expect has it was GM

but Wiki has it as Wham, turns out it was a Wham album

Released on the 1984 Wham! album Make It Big, the single release was credited either to Wham! featuring George Michael (in North America and several other countries) or solely to George Michael (in the United Kingdom and some European countries) 

but it is a George Michael single, but it's not

I'd have been furious had they not given me a point for GM

felt like a school day that

Really? Best one in a while I'd say. But then I'm a massive GnR fan.

They’ll have to tune all the guitars down to keep Axl honest

Apart from London last year, he's been pretty good. They'll have some great guests as well.

I do wonder if they'll play it's so easy - can't see the lyrics going down well for the Glastonbury crowd.

what odds Axl acts the twat and decides to turn up late

I don’t think he’s caning a silo of heroin before gigs these days so tends to behave.

His voice is rank.

Don't get me wrong there are acts on there that I'd look forward to seeing but it just didn't really excite me like other initial line-ups have in the past or like the Bearded Theory announcements have this year.

I think the bigger acts are the best in a while. Would love to see Larna Del Ray live.

Her and Axl are good mates, be interesting if she guests on their slot.

I'd definitely go to watch Lana Del Ray. There's always an upside to the main stages not being packed full of things you want to see anyway I suppose. Get to spend more time in other areas and wandering about taking it all in rather than trying to get from The Park to John Peel as quickly as possible for something that you can't miss.

John Peel stage has been renamed this year

May be an image of text that says "It's also been announced that the John Peel stage, named after the DJ, has been renamed. It will now be called Woodsies after the field it's located in. Peel, who died in 2004, has faced accusations of sexual assault. "We've had 20 years of John Peel and it's been an honour to use his name," Eavis said."

John Peels son (Tom Ravenscroft) has a voice that makes me want to murder guide dogs. Sounds a right cunt.
