I be nervous  just hope it show not be Apocalypse to Axl/GNR.

They will be fine 😉 I don’t think it will be any worse than Reading and Leeds 2010.. as great as they played the critics and British crowds crucified them. 
 

for example..

So is this broadcasted online or only in the UK? Actually is this live broadcasted at all or posted afterwards?

It will be watched by Millions in the UK on the biggest network. Do you get BBC America? Or worldwide? Perhaps it's on there. VPN iPlayer is probably the way to go on the BBC website. It is being broadcast at a max ultra HD which will I'm sure appear as a download in the days/hours following....

It's gonna be perfect weather. Warm but not too hot....just need the guys to give a decent performance now...

Without venturing to much down the rabbit hole, I'd argue Download is more 'lefty' now... Glastonbury has a lot more national (unsure about, but would also presume, global) coverage and covers a wider range of genres. The media coverage in the build up to Glasto somewhat proves that. Don't tend to see Download getting full sets broadcasted live anymore.

Download is very much a left wing festival, as is glastonbury and pretty much every music festival in the UK. Music festivals are the epicentre of summer culture. They tend to be attended by younger people, people more likely to believe in freedoms and rights, take drugs etc. I was at download 2017 when it was announced jeremy corbyn had taken the tory majority from government and it was the biggest roar and singalong of the entire weekend. Left wing people tend to be higher educated and more well travelled so it again naturally lends itself to music.

If your a lefty it is. Download > Glastonbury 

Point proven with English being his first language and the incorrect use of 'Your'

There's a difference between being a 'fan' and saying something complimentary though. People always confuse that as everything has to be an extreme now. 

I accidentally watched Robbie Williams live on TV the other night. Thought it was a great show, he came across as a decent guy and I enjoyed it. I can't stand his music though and would never dream of buying or even listening to it normally. 

Yeah I saw him at Isle of Wight fest on TV. Was impressed actually. Angels is obviously an all time great song, but he's a good showman for sure.

I wondered how long it would take grumpy old Noel to chime In with his opinion....honestly if Fernando had half a brain, he would collect all these articles, ping Axl and give him a greivance, a point to prove. Axl has always given more when he's backed into the corner with the world against him sorta thing (see Axl/DC as recent(ish) example...)

It's unbelievable how this attention seeking c*** is still getting some mainstream spotlight in 2023

for example.. 

 

I was at this gig. They crucified him because he came on just over an hour late, and made absolutely zero effort to engage with the audience at all. he won them back during This I love, but then came all the superfluous band solos even though it was obviously going to be a shortened set, and then they cut at midnight so the set was less than 90 minutes, 20 minutes of which had been dizzy solos bumblefoot solos etc. The actual vocal and musical performance from the band was brilliant.

I was there too and completely agree. I remember saying at the time (and stand by it) that if Axl had been on time and had Slash and Duff behind him it would’ve been hailed as a triumph.

So many fucking idiots with big fuckin mouths in this video.

[SilverMachine]

While Arctic Monkeys' set on the Friday is being shown on BBC2, GNR's performance is being shown live on fucking BBC1  - you couldn't get any bigger exposure in the UK - there will be literally millions of people watching this.

Going to be funny seeing unaware parts of the country's reaction when they come out to Its So Easy!

Yeah. And probably they all were the first to buy tickets when the reunion came around. And those are the people the band relies on to charge the prices they now charge.

Oh Jesus! That's a flashback...I remember clicking on NME the next morning and watching this...first time I've seen it since...plenty of reasons to get at the band, some of these twits should try being fans such as us!

 

Anyone watching Glastonbury coverage on BBC2 now...first show of 2023 festival....just previewed sets and showed Sweet Child video to showcase guns...getting close folks!

It’s the other way around. Arctic Monkeys are on BBCOne 10:30pm-12:00am Friday and Guns N’ Roses are on BBCTwo 10:00pm - 02:00am Saturday.

That was the one I watched. He made me laugh quite a bit too!

So should we expect Axl singing Wonderwall?

Also...I feel like I used to work for the Eavis's with all this praise...but in all the festivals I've watched over the years, some dodgy sound and editing comes to mind...honestly, mostly the camera work, shots and sound is 2nd to none at Glasto for a live event!

[Ratam]

I read run the rumour that Britney Spears would be Elton guest. Apparently who said it is Elton husband.

some chatter of what some people probably outside the hardcore GnR fanbase are thinking:
