Glastonbury 2024 Music Chat

[Legion]

Dua Lipa, Coldplay and SZA will headline this year's Glastonbury Festival, organisers have announced.

It marks the first time in the event's history that female acts have taken two of the three headline slots.

And country star Shania Twain will play the coveted "legend slot" on Sunday afternoon.

Other acts on this year's line-up include Afrobeats star Burna Boy, who is taking his first stride onto the Pyramid Stage; and award-winning rapper Little Simz, who will play immediately before Coldplay.

Pyramid aside, that's quite a good line-up. Loads to see.

*insert "That don't impress me much" joke here*

Just catching up on some acts, Confidence Man were great. One of the best performances so far.

 

[Beckie]

Watching Coldplay on BBC 1. They always put on such a good show.

 

[Ginger Ted]

Not a huge Coldplay fan, but have to admit that was brilliant, right up there with the best Saturday night headliners I have seen

 

[Mouth]

Confidence Man are excellent. Never heard of them before this.

Coldplay were fantastic. Amazing show. Must have been unreal being there.

Not watched Coldplay yet, will catch it on iPlayer at some point.

A good set from Blondeshell. Definitely more angst than Avril.

James were magnificent, perfect Sunday afternoon stuff.

Shania's sounding a bit ropey...I'll happily leave Eily watching her and go make dinner before the football kicks off

This is terrible from Shania Twain.

I'm going to see here in Stirling on Tuesday, this doesn't fill me with excitement!

I've seen Shania Twain perform and she sounded better than that - bit of a shame there, but she's an absolute superstar none the less and put on a great show IMO..... It's easy to forget how big she got to when Come on Over came out, too - album sold like hot cakes everywhere.

I'm going on Tuesday too Mamacita

"Come On Over" is the world's 8th best selling album of all-time

Hope she sounds better on Tuesday!

Shania Twain was decent once they sorted out the technical issues.

I missed James yesterday. Anyone know how long before they're put on the iPlayer?

Two out of the three headliners this year should not have been headlining. Only Coldplay, who I'm not really keen on, were worthy of the billing.
