If 2011’s line up were actually this years line up what would you do differently?

Knowing now what you didn’t know then would you still see the same bands?

i wouldnt have watched u2. i cant recall what the other choices on the night were because i was so 100% sure they were going to be phenominal and didnt even give any other act a seconds thought. severely dissapointed.

Would have spent less time out stood still in the open on the friday - saw 2 door cinema club (no idea why) bb king, wu tang clan and bright eyes before radiohead, all in the rain and whilst i stand by most of those choices they had an effect - A couple of mates ended up back in the tents before the headliners and whilst i stayed out till sunrise the next two nights, it had a profound effect to my sunday!

Would have gone to the se corner earlier without making the journey to dance village to see fatboy slim as well.

I'd have definately gone from Radiohead to Primal Scream, instead of trudging my way around the Other from the Park , down past West Holts to the Pyramid in the mud and rain to search for Brother and crew by the big tree atop the Pyramid. I Lost charge on my phone, missed half of the U2 set as not really paying that much attention. I eventually found them , got pissed off and went back to the tent before the end of their slot, soaked to the skin. I'd have been better of finding shelter and listening ti Primal scream. It was a better gig anyway , watching back when i got home.

I would not bother going to see radiohead. The field was uncomfortably full and we could barely see the top of the stage, let alone anyone on it.

I'd stay longer at BB King than slope off to see Fat Boy Slim. Norman was good and enjoyable, but I'll have less chance to see BB in the future.

Pretty happy with our choices really. Sacking off the Saturday headliners to spend the evening in the naughty corner was brilliant :) Had low expectations but actually thought U2 were really good - played all the hits, hardly any preaching and they spoke to an ASTRONAUT for crying out loud... not their fault the weather was shite. Chose Mozza over Radiohead and by the sounds of it that was a good decision, decided to risk seeing Pulp though which was ace, though squashed. Caught most of Janelle Monae's set by accident and loved it. And obviously Queens were awesome :)

Hoping our charmed life continues this year!

Just Beyoncé for any of the other headliners that were on. QoTSA, The Streets, Kool and the Gang. Any of them would have done.

Only saw Beyoncé as my group wanted to and we had to make a quick escape after the headliners so it was worth sticking together.

Wish i never watched morrissey. Although professional as always he really didn't want to be there and said that everyone was just getting their spot for u2. Wished i went to see the coral at jp tent instead.

On the flip of the perilous journey from Park to Pyramid in the driving rain, i got close to the stage in the Park to see the Radiohead set. As a fan i loved it :)

    • Very different in terms of time of game,  yet remember how excited I was before the first game in Euro 2016 having grown up not sure I would ever see wales in an international tournament. That day scraped a win against Slovakia and was just happy to see wales score and win at a tournament, little did I know we would finish in the top 4. Hope Scottish fans get the same experience.

    • Jesse Malin was just fantastic at Union Chapel tonight.   now.. back to Le Mans...
    • I don't think I'm alone as a Scotland fan that there is no way that I could possibly fall asleep knowing we're about to play our first World Cup game in 28 years! Pure adrenaline is keeping me wide awake (and plenty of rum)!
