Just remembered now, that I was gutted when looking through the official round the neck program that they weren't on.


Was convinced they should have been on Sunday around 1ish on the Other Stage, but they weren't shown on the listings.

Unfortunately my Clashfinder was pretty much ruined in the ques at 9.30am on the Wednesday morning and finished off in the Friday rain.

Did they actually play?

I feel I need to go back and check my booklet but I'm convinced I checked it for about 20mins that day thinking I'd got the day wrong or something.  :blink:

I didn't see them but they were billed on the screen as coming on after Clare Maguire (who I did see and thought was great - just cutting through the Other Stage at the time and stopped to watch her set). But you;re right the Clashfinder had someone else on - think it was a mistake. Whoever it said was on, my mate was keen to see and I had to warn him he had duff info.

Yep they played - info was wrong in the mini program (they were billed as playing in the main A4 guide though).

Really hate to rub it in - but they were excellent.

Yeah they did and they were great :) I missed them when they played before, had to make a conscious effort to see them this time to make up for it.

Yes, they played. And I'm afraid they were absolutely superb!

I saw them whilst eating breakfast, was great. Not a great time to have been sat in the sun though!

My mate was well miffed when we stumbled across them on the way to Joy Formidable. Especially seeing as I pointed it out on the timetable that they weren't there and got him to go over to Jamie Woon instead. The last song and a half seemed good anyway.

It had me worried that they weren't down in the mini but a quick check of twitter confirmed they were on. They were supurb plus I bumped into someone special to me and spent a few hours with her after which was nice.

I wonder why they weren't included on the mini line-up, wouldn't have thought it was a last minute thing or anything.

Yeah I was there early waiting for them, one of my favourites for the weekend! Thought it was a pretty poor attendance though, maybe this explains it!

Massive blow to know they were on.

Didn't have a mobile with any charge to check it out and the fact the rain had killed my clashfinder had me second guessing when they were on.

I should have stuck with my gut feeling that was when they were supposed to be on.

Shame to hear they got a poor turn out aswell  :(
