I was just watching and they played Warrior's Dance and an interview with Keith, Max and Liam is it? which was nice but I was hoping they had them getting the crowd to sit down

Also my V+ failed to record Madness and can't find it on iplayer anyone know what day it was shown??

The interview was good wasnt it, heres the coverage of when we all went on our knees, cant see it too well cause the cameraman lowers with them so it just looks the same.. tit.

[hobby123]

no coverage of streets or Q-tip either... shocker

[Robbie_D]

Ive just watched Sundays on TV on Demand on Virgin. And they played a few from Prodigy, Breather And Firestarter I think.

They never showed Blur - Tender, which I'm bit gutted about. Or even the crowd singing it before each encore, which was even better.

I wanted to save a few Vids off BBC for my iPod, and ffs they skip out half of Blurs songs!

Terrible coverage.

dunno but the bbc has taken it upon themselves to block various glasto vids on youtube.  this is an organisation whose salaries we as tv licence payers pay for...plus,  we pay to attend glasto. bbc staff attend as freeloaders.

watched the "Best Of" last night, when it should've been called "who's in the charts and happens to be at Glastonbury this year Of"
and ten minutes of some effing slappers talking about "fashion" WHAT THE HELL!!!!!

[Statik]

Some of them acts you just want to re-live on your screen while being there. I would love to watch the full set for Prodigy again, however we only get 13 minutes on the site (sod a highlights package), no Q-Tip either who I thought was great.

Just a shame since it was a fantastic set.

TBF, Blur have restricted the BBC's output of their set as they don't want too much given away for their Hyde park gigs, apparently anyway.

Coverage is still pretty crap though.

f**k it, who cares about the BBC coverage, I was there, experiencing it. Reducing it to something on your telly is never going to work, it's for people who couldn't get themselves there, I was having the time of my life on a sunny farm in somerset, I'm not really going to give a toss what the BBC decides to show to people sat at home on a Saturday night.

[jamestheraver]

At least its better than ITV's coverage of isle of wight, but then thats not that difficult  

[ministe2003]

Is neil young not allowed to be shown in highlights? Blur and Boss have been in but neil hasnt even been mentioned.  Would explain the IOW botch up

[Messi30]

Neil Young was shown at one point (only caught Rockin in the free world), think they showed as much of the ting tings tho.

[epping2ongar]

also there seems to be no footage of the Jazz world stage this year...

[chuckley]

I've seen a torrent for Springsteen and apparently it's his full set (according to the comments) but I havn't started downloading yet  

[Icewulf]

Click on here: http://www.bbc.co.uk...ry/2009/lineup/

And you can get almost all the artists' sets...

I don't know why everyone's having major problems

[benissright]

If the BBC arent showing a full set of Blur, Bruce or Neil Young, it is not their fault.

What i found annoying was driving back listening to radio 1

"someone has texted in asking for some bruce springsteen, sorry we arent going to play that!" followed by Zane Lowe doing his best to pretend he was John Peel and ignoring the fact completely that Springsteen even played the festival. Instead proclaiming x and y and z and everything else, was so absolutely incredible.
