    For me I think it depends where and when she's on. Not a huge fan but she's got good energy, might be entertaining!
    Although if you listen to any interviews, I get the impression she thinks she's a huge star!
    EP had her high up the bill at the start, little else to fill the gap at that point or an over aggressive agent me thinks.

    I see 20 years of Shine is on Saturday 5th of September with Dave Clarke, Darren Emerson & Funk D'Void. I wonder will any of them be added to the EP lineup...Fingers crossed for Dave Clarke :D

    Grace Jones I get the feeling is going to be one of those over the week that will be a must see.

    And fingers uncrossed for Darren Emerson.

    He'll be there alright in the crowd looking at his old mates up on stage.

    Ah I don't mean to be nasty about him. He had the guts to leave Underworld and he set up a nice little house label which I was quite into. I just never rated him as a DJ, certainly not at a festival where he just played hit after hit after hit. Not much imagination.

    A big element of that is probably the stage antics.

    Inflatable disco light lit Russell Harty for her to slap in time to the beat?

    seen her the last time she played EP, stayed for a few songs and then left...far too many rowdy women around for my liking :)

    Looks & sounds amazing - just jumped to the top of my EP must see list


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,598 ✭✭✭✭bodhrandude


    Hopkins looks so into it as well, looks like he is one of the audience when he hits these bass drops and goes mental, a pleasure to watch at his craft. He is so refreshingly not the EDM sound, that is why he is a big draw. I can see a clash central alright, Four Tet could still get announced for one of the smaller tents so I wouldn't be surprised if Hopkins is pitted against Four Tet and Underworld in the main stage.

    I'd recommend grace Jones...she was one of my highlights when she was there a few years ago

    It would be amazing if she had Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare backing though, they were the original musicians on her records and they weren't there in 2008, was still a good show though. Rfrip can you remember the start where she walked down this great big board walk coming from the back of the stage in the Electric Arena, I think she opened with Nightclubbing.

    Will she be on main stage this year??

    That Jon Hopkins BBC Glasto set is unreal! Fark me I can't wait, he's definitely in the top 3 acts I want to see.

    Great way to start the Sunday. I loved their rendition of Daft Punk's 'Discovery' a few years ago.

    That was the highlight of my weekend. First act on the main stage. They really blew off the cobwebs. Loads of people were sitting around in little groups in the grass. Then within 5 minutes everybody was running up to the front for a bit of a boogie.

    And that singer, with his weird hand gestures.... "One More Tiiii-iiime!"
