Glastonbury the alleged bestest festival in world (I prefer Boomtown myself) which famously caused Brexit by having all the lefty hippies and hipsters be off partying rather than voting have made their firt line up announcement this year.
A rare metal/hard rock act in Guns n Roses has been announced as headliner (due to Taylor Swift pulling out at the last moment apparently), Elton John finally gets to play on his farewell tour with htis being his last UK show and one of the most disappointing live acts I've ever seen in Arctic Monkeys are back again plus Cat Stevens takes the legend slot.
My various other reactions are I didn't realise Goldfrapp is going by Alison Goldfrapp now, Lizzo is gonna be a show stealer, do people care about Alt J anymore as they aren't trendy or appealing to the old hippies and hipsters, it's nice to see Sparks are still kicking about and I need to see Lil Nas X for his blend of country rap. No Wet Leg, Fontaines D.C., Charli XCX and Wizkid is a surprise after having a strong year but they are probably touring elsewhere.
@Rambler I'd add in Marilyn Manson fronting Marilyn Manson too.
I kinda like Royal Blood, they are one of those bands that everything they have done since their debut would just be filler on their debut. They seem to have a lack of sense of knowing their audience though, when I saw them they had At The Drive In supporting so you’d think they are one of those noisy alternative bands but their live show has girls dancing in cages which isn't really a noisy alt rock thing so I don't reckon Royal Blood know what their crowd is which is why the new music lacks direction.
Yeah ever since Michael Eavis handed over booker duties to his kid Emily they've had blaze trailing ideas of booking rap and pop on the main stage too with a lot of patting themselves on the back for booking Jay Z to headline as if other festivals weren’t booking Public Enemy or Cypress Hill to headline a decade or two before them lol. But they have always had loads of stages (over a hundred I think) so like there is a jazz stage or the afrobeat stage etc but now there’s more emphasis of diversity of genre unless it's an odd metal act where someone like Gojira plays to a crowd of 50 people on the post-punk stage which is normally filled with the likes of Idles or Slaves.
I think it's more to do with indie rock losing it's appeal as unless they are a busker with a loop pedal like Ed Sheeran there's not been as many guitar acts breaking through the same way in the 90/00s where someone like Kaiser Chiefs were hot enough to do staduim shows at the time or bands like Muse, Biffy Clyro or Mumford & Sons were regualry produced. Even the big young bands like The 1975 and Bring Me The Horizon have been around years and years but just aren't as old as everyone else. Then again the underground/non-mainstream music scene is always more interesting and people have been talking about how rock music isn’t fashionable anymore for decades now.
Sandra Ann Lauer musics are very dreamy 80's music with her high pitched voice.
She has face looks similar as supermodel Paulina Porizkova during her age in 80's era.
This one song from Sandra I like to listen.
And Goodness knows
The wicked's lives are lonely
Goodness knows
The wicked die alone...
@Colonel_Mustache and his family with their seemingly 1% knowledge of music... Not to throw shade but it kinda seems like it sometimes. Them lawyers too lol.
