2009 - 3/3 (Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen and Blur)

2011 - 2/3 (U2, Coldplay) (Went to Kool and the Gang instead of Beyoncé and nearly did Chems on Sat)

2013 - 3/3 (Arctic Monkeys, Rolling Stones, Mumford & Sons (indifferent on Sun so went with flow))

2003 2 (Radiohead and REM. Both were immensely brilliant.)

2005 1 (Basement Jaxx - no, I don't know why either)

2007 1 (Killers. Would've been better if they'd turned the sound up)

2008 Nil (I have no idea who I saw at all in 2008, to be honest...)

2009 1 (Blur. Damon cried. I cried)

2010 Nil (although I did catch the first 10 mins of Gorillaz and the last 10 mins of Stevie Wonder - just in time to hear Michael 'singing' Happy Birthday!)

2011 1 (U2. Unlike 99.9% of people, I loved it, despite getting wet through.)

2013 Nil. Portishead on Other made up for any other performance that year

2014 1 (Arcade Fire. Fantastic gig.)

2015 ????? (I like Foo Fighters, but enough for a whole set? Not sure. Not a Kanye fan. Let's see who Sunday is. Unless it's Blur, Stone Roses, or Fleetwood Mac, I'm probably a 0/3 for Pyramid this year)

I'm probably around 80%. Think I've only missed Gorillaz, Neil Young and Mumford.

The lure of the Pyramid at night always seems to get me. It might again this year. Two acts I'm not particularly arsed about but could see myself having a decent evening at both.

I'm guessing at around 75%. Over the years I've seen more headliners at the Pyramid than any of the other stages but that's just down to artist choices not because they were a big headline act. That being said, I do like the feel of being there with everyone else watching a big act. The atmosphere for Stevie Wonder was great and for Blur was amazing. Mind you, that's also true of the Other stage, West Holts etc

13 - 3/3

14 - 1/3

66%

this year i dont think ill be seeing Foos or Kanye so that'd take it down to 50%

i think the moral of the story is see who you want to see

dont feel like you have to see Pyramid Stage headliners.

theres always something better going on somewhere else if it isn't your thing.

    • Hezbollah rejected it. Really Israel should get the f**k out, and US and others should support the Lebanese govt in defeating Hezbollah.
