Glastonbury 2023 – Saturday live: Lana Del Rey phase time, Guns N Roses set list and BBC iPlayer stream

I’m ducking out to help modify our critics who’ve submitted their Guns N’ Roses and Lana evaluations… Thanks all for following along and see you once again tomorrow!

This is amazing, it’s outright turmoil down at the Woodsies phase as Lana’s set was cut, after she began her set thirty minutes late. Fans are yelling and weeping, and Lana is attempting (not really effectively) to get them to sing a cappella. You can’t hear a word she’s stating.

Unless I heard that incorrect, Lana appeared to state recently that it was her hair that triggered the 30-minute hold up on her set tonight.

“I was so fucking livid that I am about to rush this set today,” she said. “If they cut power, they cut power, I’m super fucking sorry… my hair takes so long to do, I love you. Let’s keep on running this set as it’s supposed to go.”

While presenting the tune “STFU!” on the celebration’s Woodsies phase, the 32-year-old Japanese-British artist referred to Healy’s recent bigotry debate, in addition to his self-admitted porn practices.

Crouching on the flooring, Sawayama said: “Tonight, this goes out to a white man that watches Ghetto Gaggers, and mocks Asian people on a podcast… he also owns my masters… I’ve had enough.”

… for a really crucial date! Lana Del Rey, babe, where you at?

Rina Sawayama’s hour set was a throwback riot, the singer-songwriter and star accepting outrageous stagecraft on a celebration spending plan: outfit modifications, wind and fog makers, a tearaway match concealing a latex bodice (plus whip) below.

Sawayama is unquestionably a trainee of the pop form, riffing on everybody from Shania and Gaga to Evanescence and Loreen throughout her hour — however when the result is this good, it doesn’t matter all that much.

Highlights consist of the dreamy “Lucid” (“This song is about queer masturbation!” she boasts in her introduction), in addition to the program’s line dancing more detailed “This Hell”. “It’s pride month and I’m wearing latex and my p**** is about to pop out,” she shouts.

Surprise finest program at the celebration this year?

Rina Sawayama, presently slaying over on the Woodsies phase, simply took a minute prior to entering into her tune “STFU”.

Remarking on how she’s ill of microaggressions, she said: “Tonight, this goes out to a white man that watches Ghetto Gaggers, and mocks Asian people on a podcast… he also owns my masters… I’ve had ENOUGH.”

In case you missed out on the story previously this year, The 1975 frontman Matty Healy went on the questionable Adam Friedland podcast, where he took part in some unsavoury discussions with the hosts that consisted of negative remarks about ladies, bigotry towards Asian individuals, and a variety of remarks about rap artist Ice Spice, consisting of numerous efforts at thinking her ethnic culture.

Healy was, up until just recently, a director at the UK record label Dirty Hit, up until his function was ended on 4 April 2023. Sawayama has actually been signed to the label given that 2019. Following Healy’s podcast look, she discussed an Instagram post discussing it: “What the actual f***.”

Rumours are swirling that Paul McCartney will come out for a session with GNR eventually. My source validates that he’s presently enjoying their program from the side of the phase.

I simply asked individuals on Twitter what they reckon of the set up until now.

“I know its Glasto but Lizzo into GnR is a Venn diagram I’m not sure exists,” says Brandon Egley. “Might liven up when they reach the hits, bit deep cuts so far…”

“Mick Hucknell is giving a good go,” Cameron Clark-Dhir says, rather kindly.

My coworker Jacob, who’s onsite, simply informed me he discovered escaping the Pyramid Stage to head to the Acoustic Stage was “a doddle” when it’s typically difficult, which is informing…

And from Julian Stockton: “Surely the real question is why they were booked at all? They don’t care about Glastonbury, it’s clearly just another gig for them. You should ask Emily and Nick why they thought they were Saturday night headliners. Blaming the band seems to be missing the point doesn’t it?”

I’m unsure about that – I believe if you state yes to headlining Glastonbury you’re putting yourself up for criticism, no? I’ve invested the months building as much as this calling out celebration bookers for that really factor, too, so I believe I’m covered.

I’m unsure rather how they’ll follow Lizzo’s set, however Guns N’ Roses are scheduled to require to the Pyramid Stage in the next 10 minutes. I require surprise visitors, I require the greatest hits, and I require them to show up on time.
