proposal for arctic monkeys glastonbury 2023 setlist

ok now that we're less than a week out... here is my dream glasto setlist that i know will never happen :) split into acts and 28 entire songs long cos unlike am themselves i remember that they have seven whole albums to curate a setlist from. in a perfect world they will have a string quartet at minimum so i am picturing a little ben chappell choppy and disorienting montage of footage on the big ring screen between 'acts' with an orchestral interlude. give those old men a minute to catch their breath 😮‍💨

act 1 - an introduction

one representative song from each album, in order, cos remember how they did that at the start of the tbhc tour... i know i sure do. four out of five original/NOT goofy bossa nova version. mirrorball w strings like it deserves i scream i beg i cry

act 2 - for the lads

old classics and basics for the annoying 40 year old men who complain am have changed since they were teenagers. 505 - miles kane’s version obbbvvvviously

act 3 - for the girls and the gays

appreciation hour for some discarded classics and new songs and personal favs that do not get the time of day they deserve. boring ppl can go piss or get another beer during this part, idc. secret door w confetti like it’s 2009 baby

encore - the one we deserve

so if miles is already gonna be there... they might as well do a tlsp song!!!!!! standing is the obvious choice but meeting place fits this encore more to me. alex on the piano during star treatment. body paint crazy extended outro goes without saying. strings on all four songs in a universe where we know peace 🙏
