Glasto' 60 Day Challenge - The List

Evening all.

So, what with the Playstation network being down and my personal details currently being handed to every Nigerian Lottery correspondent, penis enlargement agency and online dating service in the world, it would seem I have plenty spare time to enrich your lives with the Glasto' 60 Day Challenge list. Here, you will find every album that Rachel and myself are going to cover during the course of our little adventure.

If you think that there would be better albums suited to the artists in question, please let me know via the comment box, on Twitter or Facebook, by no means is it set in stone, but I have often chosen an album that I think the band will be playing a number of songs from. For example, we shall be covering Build a Rocket Boys! by Elbow. Now you may think that their debut album was better than this, and you may be correct, but this is their latest offering, and it has been met by outstanding critical acclaim, they are touring the album now, so it seems likely that they will be playing a fair share of tracks from said offering. The same goes for U2, as good as some of their albums may be, the Joshua Tree is jam-packed with class, so that is what we will tackle. Suggestions are though, of course, welcome.

So here we go. The list, in all of its shiny glory.

So there you have it, the (for now) definitive list for the Glasto' 60 Day Challenge. The only thing left for me to ask is would people prefer for this to all be a proper website? Rather than just a rolling blog? And if so, can anyone offer me any advice on making one? I'd much rather the blogs by me and Rachel be in one central point, I'm just not overly technical.

Ok kids, bye for now, and as I said, if you have any thoughts, make yourself heard!
