    Plan B is fairly terrible.

    He's a poor version of Smokey Robinson

    Jimmy eat world must be one of the great underrated bands. just watched a cracking set by them there, huge crowd as well, but they never get any publicity. How plan b and glasvegas get so much is beyond me, utter tripe.

    great festival this year, can't wait for the reading coverage now!

    I think Beyonce pretty much sums up what Glastonbury has become.

    was hoping they'd leave the backing track at home..............

    (saw Bryan Adams in the 02 on Thursday and there was no dancers b/s, no costume changes,...........just 2 hours of solid music with 5 guys on the stage and just the instruments)......

    What is going on with Glastonbury and this years Sunday headline act? After a weekend of switching between the BBC channels to watch True Musicians I have turned it off as I cannot watch that Muck.:mad:

    Yes, a show of contrived synchronised dancing, over pre-recorded music littered with unrecognised samples, and various unashamed displays of ostentatious wealth and celebrity.

    That's what Glastonbury is all about, isn't it?

    Glastonbury abondoned rock years ago. On the main stages, last year i think Slash was the only rock act and this year they had U2 and biffy clyro, thats it. I like they way they throw random acts in but its more non rock than actual rock now a days.

    I think Beyonce is great at what she does but it aint a rock festival if she is headlining.

    Bono - Chris Martin - Beyonce
    I think Beyonce will outdo Bono on the Bullcrap talking contest. She will also out do both on dancing and most number of sequins.

    On the positive side for any of the blokes still left there the place will be swimming in punani.

    Really excited to see QOTSA on BBC. Anyone who is at Glastonbury and goes to Beyonce when Queens are playing seriously need to re-evaluate their lives.

    And none play 'rock' music, which disproves your point that Glastonbury is an exclusively rock festival.

    beyonce is a good singer and dancer but watching dumb teenage girls sing sing "put a finger on it" as they show their ring fingers or beyone urging the females in the audience show the men the dismissive "talk to the hand" gesture is everything Glastonbury should not be in my view

    a lot of great bands still play the festival but pop acts are now headlining and there is no doubt the festival has lost a lot of credibility in recent years

    She is a grade A a*sehole.

    "Glastonbury is her dream come true"

    She never heard of it until her moronic boyfriend somehow got on the bill a couple of years ago.

    I really, really wish she was dead.

    ANY band.

    She shouldn't be there, end of story. They have sold out big time.

    They might as well get a sponsor next time, because they have lost every ounce of credibility putting this fat-assed moron on tonight.
