They played it in Hyde Park three years ago so you never know. A truly lovely piece of music but it does lower the energy somewhat.

True true. I'll keep my fingers crossed. I bet I end up seeing them at Hyde Park and Glasto in the hope of different setlists.

In terms of criminally underrated songs I'd love to see Strange News From Another Star make an appearance, but like NDLTR it's not exactly a party anthem.

i'd put in 6 new songs, and something like MOR,sing,charmless man and some rarities

thats massivelly different, but still crowd pleasing

I think they've played badhead almost every time i've seen them. Love that song. And i think i'm alone in adoring Tracey Jacks. Helluva track.

Hehehe it was the Steely Dan sheen to Ghost Ship that had me pining for a numbah.

Fuck yes, that's it. Steely Dan. That's an inspired and gloriously accurate comparison. Spot on Wooderson.

Not alone - possibly my favourite track from Parklife, banging tune.

Incidentally Damon wasn't the only one blubbering at To the End in 09, I was a wreck!

I had a rough year in 2009, my girlfriend at the time broke up with me then attended the festival with her new boyfriend/my ex-friend whom she cheated on me with. So I was a blubbering wreck during To The End / This Is A Low.

Also sob story over : I then went to uni and ended up with someone much better looking .

The denouement to this anecdote was more blunt than i expected. Made me chuckle. Well in son.

Met my girlfriend during blur 09. Would be an absolute dream them playing. Just them releasing a album is amazing. I would absolutely love them to play - special night if so. Tender would make me cry like a baby.

First gig we went to together after that festival was the last ever oasis gig at v fest and we love Noel so if it's Noel then Blur we'll be blubbering wrecks before blur come on...

I'd definitely keep the ones that I've put in bold. They played Sing at Hyde Park in 2012 which was excellent. I'd love to hear Charmless Man live.

    • Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!
    • Great start for them 
    • Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...
    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
