Why were so many tickets allowed to be bought in one basket, up to 12? In a year when we know it was going to be bedlam just opened it up for large groups to buy 12 at a time then bin then off when their other mates bagged them, causing this awful refresh lottery for the next hour.

Impossible. Had tickets in basket but couldn't get further than "proceed to check out". Have been going for years to GM. So sad 😔

Novel concept but It would be nice if they would just stop showing endless fucking repeats of the ball sailing 20ft over the cross bar while the actual game is still being played.

Another numpty reporting on what they've read not what they've seen. Guess I'll not be listening to the News Agents anymore.

Exactly, it wasn't as if it was being beamed in to anyone's living room without their permission. I tuned in because I love Bob Vylan but also I knew what was about to happen and was all in for the stink they were about to kick up

Anyone with an ounce of knowledge of the contemporary/alternative music scene would know Bob Vylan have been doing the Palestinian/anti fascist/anti government stuff for at least 4 years since they broke through and more veremently than Kneecap ever have, shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone.

The fact is no one was watching Bob Vylan who didn't want to watch Bob Vylan. You had to click on the link to the West Holts stage where it said in big letters, "now playing Bob Vylan". Manufactured outrage and disinformation of the highest order as usual.

What was essentially a message of hope and positivity about 2 working class black kids being able to tour the world as musicians and living their dream could be over because they dared to call out the IDF for murdering women and children. Out fucking establishment media and politicians sicken me.

Totally agree re Alan Sparhawk. Was out on a run when I first heard it and had to stop When Hollis comes in on Not Broken. Definitely broke me!
Can I also add These New Puritans to that list. Such an incredible sound best consumed with the curtains closed and candles lit.

Peel would definitely have loved you if he were alive today and I'm sure invited you in for a session! Hard to overstate how influential he was in the days where radio was king.
