You're missing out. Its a great tune to steal a jumbo to and then jump out just as the chorus kicks in. Or have it playing as you're cruising around looking for 2x4s to kill.

And also, listen to Traffic by Traffic and Ginger Bakers Airforce. 

Personal favourite is blasting All Saints' Pure Shores while lobbing grenades at oil tankers.

Most people would associate Winwood with Higher Love. A Feargal Sharkey type I suppose.

And let's not forget that if it weren't for that last song, a whole generation of teenage boys would never have seen *that* video.

Proclaimers  got a big old crowd last year, and if they show up again this year as rumoured they'll do so again. People just plain like 'em.

In contrast, while Winwood didn't clash with the Stones, he very much clashed with the timeframe people felt that they had to start assembling in front of the Pyramid 

Winwood had a pitiful crowd that thinned out steadily the closer it came to The Rolling Stones set time leaving about 200 hardcore absolutely loving his set. We walked out of the acoustic tent and strolled to the Pyramid and worked our way in from the back and got a good spot on the hill,  sparked a joint and The Stones walked out. We could not have timed it better and those who abandoned Winwood's set halfway through really missed out. 

Back to Art, I said on the first Art Garfunkel thread that I would gladly hand over my man card and weep openly for the majority of his set and it very much appears I won't be alone on that one,  especially looking at his current set list. An Efests communal "weep meet" sounds great.

Don't think the Proclaimers will be there this year - they are playing Truro on Fri, Weston SM on Sat and Croydon on the Sunday. Shame, they're great fun.

I believe they can walk 1000 miles to be there at our door.

Yeah, that's only 6% of what they usually walk.

They do normally fall down after that, though, so they probably wouldn't be up for another gig after that mileage.

Jesus!

It's now officially beginning to get at me!

Headliners of Coldplay, Muse and potentially Adele made me smile, but now the prospect of missing ZZ-top, Art Garfunkel and Foals killing it on the Pyramid have me now beginning to hurt. The hurt this first missed Glasto since 2004 will bring will only get stronger once feels.................. :(

Oooh, er, I'd say there's an outside chance he might slip one in! :)

I've pretty much agreed not to see Tame Impala because I have picked a big part of the lineup and I know the mrs will hate them, so it's out of Art or Chvrches on Saturday. Not my final decision but I can probably influence it!

I'm trying to make the Art/Chvrches decision. Two of the acts I most wanted to see! I'm slightly leaning towards Art as I don't know when I'll next have the chance to see him, and I don't think I'll be short of opportunities to see Chvrches. It'll probably come down to my mood on the day - whether I'm up for a bit of a dance or a bit of a cry.

Also - the Acoustic is gonna be absolutely overflowing for this, isn't it? Even with the three-way clash with Tame Impala and Chvrches

Aye it will be rammed. I dismissed the idea of it because of that until I realised that there is a 55 minute gap between TLSP and Art. Saturday night is looking brilliant, it's just that sub decision that is a bastard.
