Perturbator are good, they are among the new wave of synth bands who are clearly influenced by metal and John Carpenter, similar to the likes of Power Glove and Carpenter Brut.

There are loads of bands I'd like to see over the three days but I hate festivals, I always have done.

However, on the other hand Glastonbury looks shit, and I don't think it's had a great line up since the first time Radiohead headlined back when OK Computer came out, that was 1997...

Yep. At the London 02 next month.
I also saw them the last time they were here on the Sonic Boom tour.

Nice, it's been ages since I saw her in concert, she's one of the best for performing.

Great night

Watching boring ****in' Radiohead at Glasto.

Thom Yorke is the worst singer i've ever seen. He doesn't sing he just sounds like he's moaning in his sleep. Which is what i will be doing if i watch much more of this pathetic noodling drone.

They are like Coldplay but Coldplay have two decent tunes.
