Manic Street Preachers took to The Other Stage at Glastonbury 2023 today (Saturday June 24) – paying tribute to Richey Edwards as well as duetting with The Anchoress and surprising fans with cuts from their seminal album ‘The Holy Bible’.Making their seventh appearance at the iconic Worthy Farm Festival, the band arrived on stage to the backdrop of a Jack Kerouac quote (“So, I say, life is too sweet to waste on self propaganda, i quit self promotion, I enter my page”) and a tranced up remix of ‘Futurology’ track ‘Europa Geht Durch Mich’. They then kicked straight into the classic ‘Generation Terrorists’ single ‘Motorcycle Emptiness’ before the fan favourite ‘1985’ from divisive 2004 album ‘Lifeblood’ – which the band recently revealed they’d be reissuing next year.“How you doing, Glastonbury?” offered frontman James Dean Bradfield to the large, early evening crowd, before telling them: “back to the ’90s we’re taking you”.
