To think the lead singer of the Arctic Monkeys is a dick?

[YellowTulips]

WTF - just watching Glastonbury - thinks he is Elvis. Lost all that Northern grit. Awful. Awful.

[FrancesHouseman]

Very fucking odd. His show-voice is ridiculous!

[YellowTulips]

Yes - boo hoo

Why do people need to lose their accents when they get famous?

Agghhhh

[Oldraver]

I've got it on in the background and its not holding my attention..so I conclude its/they are being crap

[LittleNoona]

They're all dicks.

In fact, I'd go so far as to say they're cunts.

Can't stand them.

[YellowTulips]

LN - read your post

Laughed too much - new undies requiredr

[crazyhamsterdisguisedasahippo]

They are definitely Dicks !!

Posh boys that pretend not to be so they can 'fit in'

[burberryqueen]

agree arctic monkeys are total cunts, didnt tony blair say that he liked them to show that he was down wiv da yoof?
says it all really.

[LackaDAISYcal]

Oh, I like them and their hard Northern grit, and didn't notice a loss of accent. They're talking to Jo Whylie on the sofa now.

Not sure about them being a "headline" act though. In fact I've just been musing, watching Portishead that the whole thing is turning out to be a bit of a revival festival rather than something current.

[LackaDAISYcal]

hahaha, JW just said he was "chanelling Elvis" YellowTulips, are you JW?

[YellowTulips]

Forgot Blair said he liked them - nuff said. Seen the interview - off his head!

[YellowTulips]

Ha ha - not JW

Just (as a northern lass) not impressed!

[SwedishEdith]

They were very, very boring. But, god almighty, how inane is Jo Whiley - "You nailed it". Jeeze, she has been so, so lucky in her career

[YellowTulips]

All the DJ's are sycophants - it's like the inevitability of poo in a nappy.

[LackaDAISYcal]

...sometimes I really wish there was a like button on MN!!

[YellowTulips]

Have a soft spot for Lauren Laverne (not sure on the spelling). She might be a mackem but she's a bright lass.

[madmayday]

Coked up.

[dopeysheep]

Dunno about the Arctic Monkeys who are seven kinds of shite but watched Rizzle Kicks earlier being interviewed ( badly) and they were wasted as well.
Greg James then said afterwards "they've been in hospitality for several hours and are very 'relaxed'"

[dopeysheep]

I dislike monkeys anyway, definitely my least favourite animal, so arctic ones are no different. Shit throwing tossers.

[AHandfulOfDust]

No-one from Sheffield is a dick.

Tru-fax.

[SyraCusa]

Posh boys that pretend not to be so they can 'fit in'

Not true. Alex went to the same school as me, definitely not posh.

I didn't see Glastonbury tonight so can't comment, but would have thought pseudo-transatlantic rock posturing more likely. I don't really blame them though, they were killed by over-hype after one album.

(It was Brown, not Blair, who pretended to like them. Blair would've handled such questions with less cringeworthy embarrassment).

[TheRealFellatio]

It was Gordon Brown, not Tony Blair.

Which is even worse.

[AKissIsNotAContract]

I saw Craig Charles interviewing someone earlier and he was completely wasted too.
I couldn't even name a song by the Artic Monkeys, my mum likes them though.

[NickyNackyNooNoo]

Oh no, I luffs Arctic Monkeys and was going catch up tonight

I shall watch later and make my own mind up

[nellyjelly]

I thought they were good. Surely the rock and roll oosturing was just an act, part of the show. Hence the slicked back hair etc.

Agree about all these acts looking wasted though. Must be a pain to interview them.

BTW Craig Charles was nterviewing Nile Rodgers! Heis a bloody legend woman!

Pah!

[nellyjelly]

Posturing not oosturing!
