We didn't make the train to Glastonbury this year (soon we promise, loyal UK readers), but it's not like the Brit press is lacking for coverage. From what we can tell, there was lots of rain, no Libertines reunion, and friends say Björk and !!! slayed. So, just like a really rainy Coachella, then. Love oversimplifying.
To continue with our tenuously connecting Glastonbury to recent US fests, Lily's set this past weekend seemed a nice follow-up to her Jäger-fueled banter at Bonnaroo, where she said something to the effect of "I think the Specials are the greatest band in the world, and if you don't like it, you can suck my frock" (again, not an exact quote) -- before launching into the ska revivalists' "Gangsters." Lily repeated the feat at Glasto (as she does often on tour), only this time she was joined by former Specials singer Terry Hall and singer/guitarist Lynval Golding for the tune, the first time the pair shared a stage in over 22 years. Quite a Specials moment, eh? Enjoy.
