After all that i missed most of it
can someone give me a little recap?
I missed the very first bit before Breathe myself but just give me a second and I'll recap the rest for you!
Edited to add:
Thanks to enajh2 for providing me with the audio for the first part I missed:
* Discussing nicknames - "Lazmondo" (what the hell?
) vs "Bang-Bang"
* Lowe sweettalks Larry by saying he choose the right interviewee - Larry and Adam are more sought after than Edge and Bono he reckons.
*
"Glastonbury never seemed right before - this time around we have to do it. It's not a 360° show and we're out of our comfort zone."
* "Despite everything we have something to prove and its about the songs. Glastonbury is about a band being able to get up and play the music and there aren't bells and whistles necessarily - that's a challenge for us".
* It's a small stage, sort of going back to the roots of the band. "It's somewhere we're going anyway, we just didn't quite think that Glastonbury would be the first outing because it's such a big deal. We're getting back to our roots a little earlier than anticipated." (indoor tour next time?)
(Breathe intermission)
* Bono's back problem last year and Edge's appearance with Muse and the disappointment of not being able to do it.
* Larry says it's taken a lot of time and energy to "ramp up again" and reschedule for this year - not to mention deciding on the setlist.
* "Again, Without all the bells and whistles its like four guys back in the room playing through different setlists". Larry says he's glad it is happening finally but also nice for it to be over with finally.
* Larry confirms there will be surprises in store for the fans in the setlist and that it's been difficult to put it together. "We've gone through a number of combinations - everybody seems to have a slightly different opinion which is not good news."
* "Lazmondo" says there are a few different camps: The Where The Streets Have No Name-camp, The Achtung Baby-dynamic approach camp (where you sort of build slowly) and yet others want to open with 40. "There's an awful lot of opinions"
* Zane Lowe requests that the band opens with Zoo Station - or "just open it with Streets and get it done!" Larry is wondering where to go from there, but Lowe points out they have a lot of hit records to follow it up with.
* Lowe says he'll do it for them; "City Of Blinding Lights->The Fly->With Or Without You->Zoo Station->Pride->Breathe->Until The End Of The World..."
* Larry wants him to send him a postcard with his setlist request before saying his goodbyes: "We're all looking forward to it, there's a lot to play for because we wanna get it right - we want to make it the best Glastonbury ever!"
