NewsRachel PilcherColdplay Pay A Touching Tribute To Viola Beach During Glastonbury Headline Set
Coldplay brought Glastonbury Festival 2016 to a close last night (June 26) with a predictably epic set, filled with their best hits, confetti, fireworks and some special surprise guests. The most touching and heartwarming moment, though, came when Chris Martin explained that, while they usually play a tribute to David Bowie during their set, they would instead use the Pyramid Stage to honour Viola Beach. The band - Kris Leonard, River Reeves, Tomas Lowe and Jack Dakin - and their manager, Craig Tarry, tragically died in February when their car plunged more than 80ft into a canal in Sweden.
NewsDaniel Wood, TV BloggerWhy watching Glastonbury on television is better then being there... Well, almost!
Okay so I want to begin this article with the prerequisite that, yes, I am jealous of all the people actually at Glastonbury, in my 25 years of life I haven’t even gotten close to legitimately getting tickets despite being up at the crack of dawn, using multiple phones and around a thousand constantly refreshing internet tabs, those elusive tickets have been slightly beyond my grasp. I have luckily managed to secure myself one visit to Glastonbury thanks to Oxfam and their need for volunteering and I had a bonafide magical time watching Elbow, Coldplay, Beyonce and others. I’ve seen locals complaining that yet again Glastonbury has made life almost unbearable. I’m watching Adele now after catching sets from Lapsley, Tame Impala, Chvrches, Stormzy, Ady Suileman (a new discovery) and that was in the space of an hour and a half whilst cooking dinner and playing with my dog, which I’ll admit is a different kind of leisure/enjoyment to actually being at the festival and enjoying it live, but it’s equally as valid! Yesterday I got home from work and caught Muse’s incredibly electrifying set and enjoyed it just as much as I loved their headline set at Reading a few years ago.
