budvar Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 I always raise this topic to find out what I missed out on (I love a good cover version). For me it was Nightcall by London Grammar. I know it's a standard part of their set but it really is quite something. Nice hearing a bit of Queen from the Foos too. More randomly the Ambling Band (?) played the Tetris music in the T&C field - took me a while to work out what it was! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mash011 Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Didn't see a lot of covers but off the top of my head it'd be Whitney's version of 'Magnet' by NRBQ. Don't really know the original but I've seen them doing it before on video and it's cracking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfko Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Another vote for First Aid Kit doing Kenny Rogers - The Gambler. They could have covered Aqua - Barbie Girl and I would have loved it after the performance they gave to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andeeroo Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Agreed on First Aid Kit and Flaming Lips. Cut Capers did a great version of No Diggity on Thursday night. Barry Gibb's Boyzone cover too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
