Not for me.

No doubt he's talented but just don't like his stuff.

The likes of Galway Girl is just as cheesy as you can get.

Had stream problems on Moderat so clicked on London Grammar on John Peel stage randomly to see if the problem went away.

Blown away by them, great stuff, the lead singer's vocals are amazing. Soaring vocals a bit like Florence and the Machine.

Never heard of them before, mind you I am beyond out of touch at this stage.

Love when you stumble onto something amazing at Glastonbury. Same happened with me with Todd Terje in 2015.

Just finishing up now but worth a gawk if ye are looking for something.

Will check out Justice now, should be fairly banging.

After every year of watching this on tv I think I'd have to go but I just don't think I can cope with the scale of it. Like the trip from the campsite on a Monday morning of electric picnic to the car park is tough enough!!! I see it's not on next year so 2019 maybe!

The last time they played at electric picnic I went to see them grudgenly as had no interest, her voice is incredible. I was blown away. Would deffo recommend them for anyone going to ep this year

Not me. He's a talented lad but his music couldn't be more bland. As someone on boards so eloquently put it "he's for the housewife who buys 2 cd's a year".

Any recommendations for tonight? Thinking Justice as not really into Sheeran and Boy better know doesn't sound like my thing either.

Metronomy are playing at the John Peel stage. I'll be flicking between them and Justice.

Scorpion Sting

Ed looks a bit nervous haha.

ricero

Ed sucks. Wheres the ****ing umph gone from glasto ?

callaway92

Not my kinda thing at all at all.

Would want the main act of a Glasto type even to be a rock band, plain and simple

brevity

Not my cup of tea at all but to be fair its only him and his guitar, very daunting I'd say.

The fact that the crowd are into it is surprising.

Lament for real rock and roll

I agree, he's fairly bland but would have a draw from the younger crowd. Probably should have swapped him with Biffy, they would have closed the weekend in style.

Well I'm not a fan and I'm watching. Can't help but think it's totally out of syncs with the rest of the festival. Two spectacular sets from the Friday and Saturday headliners and we are left with a glorified busker for the Sunday night.

Anyway the crowd seem to be enjoying it so far.

tommythecat

I don't know how he gets away with this one man band lark it's a farce. And the only musical instrument he plays is a tiny twangy guitar with no tone!! It boggles the mind!

Yikes the crowd looks a bit dead.

Appreciate that Ed Sheeran is talented and has dominated the radio / streams over the past few months but it's all a bit meh for a Sunday headliner @ Glastonbury.

Well his fans are not normally up this late and they have school tomorrow.

johnpatrick81

The Killers Mr Brightside was absolutely rocking!! Crowd were insane. They said it was the maddest reaction it's ever gotten. Great stuff. What s band to have in a tent early evening

Mantis Toboggan

Love how he records the music at the start of each tune.

Dr Crayfish

God he's crap. The people at work wouldn't believe me when I said I didn't know any of his songs recently but I don't listen to music radio so I honestly don't know any of them so I thought I'd tune in to see what the fuss is about. A headliner at Glastonbury ffs, he's just so bland.

I didnt think there was a quota of band members needed to headline Glasto :rolleyes:

rtron

He's holding his own in fairness, hope a band joins him though.

So long Ed, Justice just started.

I dont think ive ever seen him have a band with him.

Mantis Toboggan

Was a poor start but he's getting going now

Annabella1

Each to their own
Not a fan but he is doing well
People are knackered Sunday evening so he is a good fit for a chill out

BillyBobBS

Sheeran sinking like a rock in a pond.

Lack of any decent music or rock stars anymore, bland pc metro sexuals these days

He'll earn my respect if he carries through then.Think the guitar is out of tune now.

Guitar needs tuning.

Limerick91

Ed is killing the crowd in a bad way. Sounds dead. Full of glo sticks and kids. Guitar almost sounds out of tune
