Yeah I've advocated The Chems to get another Pyramid slot for a long time now. One of the best live acts in the world, one of the best electronic acts in history, great friends of the festival and who, according to Emily, pulled a crowd of 200,000 to the Pyramid in 2000. I get that the Pyramid has changed a bit and the need for diversity and equality etc. I agree with all that, but it looks unlikely we'll ever see an act like that on the Pointy stage again and that's a pity if so. Not many electronic acts have the visual show for the Pyramid but they do. It's incredible.

Roisin did look really good from the TV coverage. She's got great stage presence. That was a bad clash. Annoyed I missed her.

Yeah indoor lends itself well to these shows. I found Disclosure at Primavera a bit boring in all honesty.

Other Stage headliners yeah, assuming the next album doesn't see a noticeable drop in popularity. Didn't Disclosure headline the Other Stage? There's no comparison between them and Bicep IMO. Bicep light years ahead as a live act with the huge light show to boot.

It was magic. Earlier on Sunday I was struggling a bit but that was an epic finale to the main stages.

Headliners like Sigur Ros, Sister Sledge / Chaka Khan and Leftfield next year would be nice Mr Kerridge please

At least it means badgers aren't standing in the way. AC/DC on the Pyramid would be seriously good craic. Love the idea.

The man is an absolute w*nker.

Returning: Stevie Wonder New: Roger Waters / Idles Never: Eurythmics / Creedence Clearwater Revival

That would be way too dangerous IMO. Would cause a potentially massive security issue. I can only imagine how bad Arcadia would've been had they turned up for their DJ set.

Could easily imagine Sigur Ros on the West Holts. Reckon I'd enjoy that a lot. And if Doves are back touring, health issues permitting, get them on the bill. Not sure what stage. Maybe the Other slot taken by Supergrass this year.

I was surprised at just how good St Vincent was. I've seen her before with David Byrne but this was very different and I really enjoyed it. It added to what was an epic run on Friday from Confidence Man to Foals via Supergrass, Idles, St Vincent and Khruangbin.

Did anyone make it into the Funkingham Palace for Greg Wilson, Four Tet and Nick Warren on Thursday night? I regret missing that but the queue was a bit of a joke so can't complain that others in the group decided against it. Between that and the crowd at Sasha being too big and a bit dodgy (plus the sound being crap) it was an annoying couple of hours.

Yeah I'll get a chance to watch the set this week without being too pissed off hopefully 😄

Yeah we all have a few each year mate. I'm pretty raging at missing Herbie because we couldn't get the girls in the group ready to go on time. Should've just went on ahead. Regret missing Fontaines for Diana Ross but can always we them on tour later in the year. And regret not going to Digweed on Friday night because my feet were absolutely fucked. That was pathetic. Should've spent more time at IICON too. That place is pretty mental. I loved Foals by the way 😅
