    Kasabian are sounding pure pish live. I've heard better live acts down the local.

    It's about that at most festivals, but people pay a lot of money for T and deserve better organisation, facilities and acts.

    It's lived off reputation for years, I'm glad people are starting to realise this.

    Kasabian headlined the Friday at Rock Ness last year, my weekend ticket cost me £99, nothing they have done in the last year justifies them now closing T in the Park.

    Crap like Jessie J, The Wanted and Olly Murs is * scandalous at a rock festival .. every one of them should be bottled off.

    I disagree with what pretty much everyone here is saying. I think Kasabian have sounded quality tonight. Far better than 2010.

    I'm surprised at the guy who said they were poor at Wembley supporting Oasis. At the Murrayfield gig on the same tour they very nearly bettered Oasis. I wasn't that into Kasabian then but I thought they were outstanding that night and I got right into them after that. Wish I was there tonight. * the mud.

    I've seen them perform better tbh. Think the fact they seem to always be at T doesn't help. Don't know if it's the weather or not, but the crowd seem * as well. Full of folk who just want to hear Fire etc.

    Aye, I was at that Murrayfield Oasis gig and they were outstanding that night. Yeah, I agree about the crowd most of them probably couldn't tell you any songs other than the likes of Fire and Fast Fuse

    Watching the DJ sets and I can only think, why not just play the CD?

    I want to see musicians play.

    Calvin Harris is a dj/producer/singer/singwriter! The guys extremely talented and to be able to perform in front of all those people and tak them all on a musical journey is pretty * amazin.
    It's very ignorant when people that have no idea what they're talking about spout off about Djs when they are hard working musicians like any other,even the ones that don't produce.to be able to mix and forge the music together in such a way should be applauded.
    If its not your thing then fair enough,I don't like jazz,dub step or listening to Micheal Jackson but I'd never try and tell you theres no talent there??
    Rant over lol

    its not just a rock festival anymore just like every other festival they have branched out and tried to accommodation for more people so that they can experience the festival.
    anyway calvin harris set was * * worthy * raging I left before he came on or I could have got backstage for it :31:

    I like lots of musicians and appreciate their talent if it's not my genre of music.

    I didn't see any singing in his set. The sounds were all prerecorded and he had his hands in the air when different noises came out.

    Festivals are all about live music where the band are reacting and playing to the crowd.

    Watching on the tv this year, the festival was pretty poor.

    The Isle of Wight had Bruce Springsteen headlinging.

    We had two bands that appear too often and the stone roses who are too scared to be shown live.

    Where is this too scared to be shown * coming from? I remember in the past eminem, beyonce and guetta not getting showing live on BBC because they are the biggest performers. If they are on tv they wouldn't have sold all their tickets
