Showing Radiohead what a festival crowd wants, and Dave Grohl only used one guitar.

Ketty Perry was good too.

Can't hold that against them but yes, you're right - it's all about the songs and Dave Grohl like Cheap Trick has a great knack for pop songs. It doesn't matter it they're played hard and fast and a bit rough around the edges they are 100% bona fide great pop songs.

Well done the Foos.

Grohl is a decent guy but to me it was all noise and not much substance. If lots of posing and hair waving is your bag then I guess it is what the masses wanted.
As for good pop songs then Ray Davies he is not.
Radiohead are too far up their own asses with little recent commercial success to warrant their listing at Glasto.
All imho of course. Opinions make the world go round :-)

Radiohead sell shit loads of records so of course they warranted that slot as they have in the past. Best band of the weekend so far IMHO.

Some band with a mad bastard of a bass player who had the biggest bass I've ever seen.

Genesis sell shitloads of records. Radiohead last night came off like a band aping early Pink Floyd and Genesis before they were good. Trying to f*ck up their legacy to gain art rock respectability. Complete bunch of c*nts. Reports remain to be ratified but all but the pretentious few f*cked off half way through last night and the remainers were rewarded with the pop singles that Radiohead have been trying disown for the best part of the last twenty years. C*nts.

You just don't get it do you?

If they had carried on doing bends stuff they would have been finished years ago, instead they have experimented and become a better band for it.

Kid A pisses all over Pablo Honey IMHO

Foo Fighters... instantly forgettable songs.

Boring. Lead singer has a decent voice. But very poor material. Wall of bland noise.

I would be gutted to be there for that.

Other musical tastes are available.

I like the Foo Gighters, a real Everyman band. Radiohead were peaks and troughs and more memorable for it. I enjoyed Elbow yesterday and thought Katy Perry was fun. Against the grain for me, but enjoyed it. Alt-J are dreadful. Make the experimental bits of Radiohead sound like One Direction.

Please tell me you're joking? Radiohead, as mesmerising as they were at times last night, it was hardly a headliner performance. Not when compared to what the foo fighters just done. When you're headlining the biggest festival in the world you get down off your high horse and play all the classics that have got you the reputation over the years and not a load of unknown shite.

The crowd didn't complain and as a Radiohead fan they played everything I more or less expected them to play.

As Ed O'Brien said "We are not headlining, we are just a part of a massive and fantastic cultural festival where you have to leave your ego at the door".

Grohl was w*nking over his own ego tonight with how many f*cks he could get in.
