I would love to go one day just to take in the atmosphere, there have been a few problems there this year, such as the U2 performance being marred by the demonstrations and clashes. The problem is the fact they avoid paying tax in their homeland of Ireland, but hey we will avoid it if we got the chance.
It has been a nice hot day today, and it has been a case trying to stay cool. Us Brits are a Nation of moaners, we moan when it is too hot, too cold. When the weather is raining, when it is too sunny. Some people are never happy if they are not moaning.
Well going back to Glastonbury, it is always good to see new up and coming groups, I like to listen to differant stuff. I do get very bored with mainstream stuff. I touched on that earlier in this blogg. To be honest I own a copy of the Kings of Leon first 3 albums, but the fourth one, with the track "sex on fire" and "need somebody", I simply didnt bother with. The reason was everyone was listening to them, even the ones who dismissed them when they first started out. It is reflect in my choice of music and collection of albums, which consists of bands who are up and coming, or were underrated that they became cult icons.
The fact that Sex on fire was played to death on all the wanky local commercial stations had something to do with it, you know the sort. the ones with a playlist of 50 songs, have one adverts that get on your tits to the point that you want to throw the radio out the car window, then put the car in reverse to make sure it is dead. Half the songs are the ones released by the tossers who have been contestants on X factor. but I digress.
Mind you the samething has happened with TV programmes. It must be my way of wanting to do my own thing, To be honest I dont tend to watch alot of TV, if I do it is discovery turbo, or Bear Grylls sort of programmes. Again I lost interest in My family years ago, it is time they killed that show off in my opinion, it will get to the point where it is not funny any more.
