I find them distinctly average in every sense, i just imagine they're more relatable to young brits.

I agreed with you entirely until I watched their set. Used to ignore them with disdane. (And I sadly don't count as young anymore....)
But (apart from his singing, which is poor) I thought that as a band they played really well and coherently, which is more than could be said for a lot of the other acts. Lyrics are a load of nonsense of course....

Rodrigo y Gabriela - that was fantastic wasn't it? I loved the beer bottle slide guitar bit at the end too!
I couldn't find the video from Glastonbury but there's other versions on youtube. I think they do it regularly...
