I love the Arctic Monkeys on record but live they are strangely passion free. Turner is in danger of going full on Bono here.

It's utter pish, he's singing in a stupid voice. I'm watching Sparks with Cate Blanchett one more time then that's all for tonight.

+1 for not digging this arctics live performance. Was quite looking forward to seeing it too.

[MountcastleHibs]

Opinions eh… no different from when I saw them live a couple of weeks ago and smashing it. They have 7 albums to choose from and have evolved massively as a band since their first album. Alex Turner is cool as to me too.

[marinello59]

They weren’t that great before Turner put his guitar down. This is next level awful now. Still hopeful they finish with a two or three song burst of magic.

My issue is they’ve already played a couple of he ones I really like and it didn’t get any better. I don’t think I’ll be lasting to the end.

Turn over to Fever Ray.

Agreed. I don’t follow them that closely, so maybe it’s the way he sings now, but almost seems like he’s applying that slightly posher altered voice on the newer different stuff to the whole performance. Also finding him a bit weird. Anyway, each to their own.

That sparks lot was the most bizarre thing I’ve seen in a while though 😁 certainly not for me either.

It’s like Hibs for me. I always stay until the end even when we are 3-0 down just in case.
Fluorescent Adolescent ….. loving it.

Don't think it's anything to do with evolving as a band though. Hear that a lot. Plenty bands on tour with many more albums than AM have and still play their older hits the same way. Especially at a festival!

Turner has turned into an insufferable egotistical gimp in my opinion.

He’s a bit of an oddball, but I do think part of that is his stage persona.

I read an interview with him before the last album, and he says they’ve slowed down the songs because he can’t sing them how he did when he was 16/17. I think that’s fair.

[Hibby70]

Think it will be a competition to see who is the worst headliner this year. My money is fully on Guns'n'Roses mind you they truly are an abomination.

I'm struggling to pick more than 10 bands from the whole lineup that I'd want to listen to. Mind you I don't think I've even heard of 99% of them.

I’m not sure even ‘love is a laser quest’ could get me to turn it back on.. and I can already picture them murdering ‘do I wanna know?’ 🙈😂

Good night 😁

Eh? He's only 37. They haven't exactly had a packed gigging schedule the past decade either considering the gaps between albums.

Can't or doesn't want to are too very different things.

Exactly. He’s matured as an artist, they’ve become more accomplished as a band.

Absolutely fine when you're playing your own tour.

Completely disagree. They don’t need to change what they do for Glastonbury. People don’t like it - turn it off, watch something else.

From what I’ve seen on Twitter, people seem to just think that they should play songs from albums one and two. You can definitely prefer their earlier stuff, even their headline sets from 07 and 13, but they’ve earned their spot tonight and I’m enjoying their performance.

😂 Are you being serious?

You don't think they should have to change what they do when playing at, probably the world's most famous, festival? Honestly?

Every band on the roster will be expected to play their biggest hits. It's a festival. Foo Fighters are a prime example, you think they won't play their hits same as the album tonight?

Same as the album was the key point. They may as well not have bothered playing some of the songs.

His heart just isn't in the older stuff anymore, and that's absolutely fine, nothing at all do do with age though. Just don't play festivals then.

Anyway! If you enjoy it all power to you man. No point arguing over something that's so subjective! Both like the same band at the end of the day 👍🏻

It’s not a new thing, the way they are playing these songs. As I have already said, they’ve evolved as band and have a taken a new spin on it. If people don’t like it, don’t go and see them. Paolo Nutini has done the same thing with some of his music too. People will no doubt have their opinions about that too.

Nothing gets discussion going more than football and music for me. Enjoy the rest of your weekend mate.

A rather wet but excellent show from Muse tonight in Glasgow. Great band.

Iron Maiden on Monday night at the hydro to follow. Can't wait.

Absolutely pished down. Great vibe though, everyone just embraced it.

I got burned to **** at download festival 2 weeks ago and soaked through tonight. Can't beat live music.

Not been the same live in a very long time.

Easily one of my favourite bands ever. Don't bother going to see them live anymore though.

Not even to do with not liking their new stuff, love The Car. It's exactly what you just said, seems methodical rather than anything else these days

Gone from being edgy young and enthusiastic to now being a tad boring. Just look at the Foos last night, all the energy of 18yr olds but are now all in their 50's and the crowd loved them.
