...because it was the greatest set that Glasto has had off the pyramid in ten years. Come. At. Me. 

LCD Soundsystem, Other Stage 2016, 'nuff said.

Correct! That set made the whole trudge of a weekend worthwhile. Nuff said.

If two of the best non-Pyramid shows of the last 10 years at Glastonbury have been put on by The Killers and Elbow there can't be much good stuff going on.

Where you at either?

[CaledonianGonzo]

The Elbow surprise guest slot at The Park last year seemed to cause nary a ripple beyond the folk who went to it.  The Killers one seems to soak up almost all of the limelight, with Liam taking care of the rest.

Favourite sets for me include The Radiophonic Workshop, Beta Band, Portishead and Beastie Boys.

My favourite headline sets on the Pyramid were Blur, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Pulp and Steve Wonder.

Was very good indeed...

Battles, Park, 2008 just about qualifies and beats everything ever.

The only people who liked the Elbow set are the ones that saw it..? 

[CaledonianGonzo]

If Elbow play a surprise guest show at the Park and noone was there to see it, did it even happen?

I mean, it was good, really good, but best in 10 years? Nah.

Anti-flag at Leftfied, The Hold Steady on The Other, Killers at John Peel, Elbow at The Park. All better.

Elbow? ELBOW??? You make some decent suggestions (I didn't see those) but then you ruin it all with that! Nope. ?

It was superb. Glastonbury turned me into an Elbow fan and I'll be eternally grateful.

I do love it when stuff like that happens. I just wish they'd turn the "elbow" dial down three notches and just let Guy Garvey run with it.

One of my top 5 Glastonbury nights.

That was pretty ace wasn't it. If I remember correctly wasn't it really rammed for the new big things that year, MGMT. Then as they finished the Park started to thin out for the mighty Battles arrival

...Elbow at the Queens Head was also something special that year

[SwedgeAntilles]

Honourable mention for Hinds at The Park in 2016 but LCD on The Other is undoubtedly the correct answer.

[BambooShanks]

For me, my favourite non-pyramid headliners of the last 10 years are: Chic at WH in '13, Massive Attack at The other in '14, John Hopkins in '15,  LCD soundsystem in '16.

No doubt I will be adding to that list next year.

ITT: people that didn't go see Portishead

+1 for LCD Soundsystem. 

You know it was a good set when, after waiting for Radiohead to triumphantly return to the Pyramid, the LCD set was still better. I also think battling with that dreadful mud all weekend helped the show. People were so up for it and determined to make it a great crowd.

I hear Macca’s gonna pull out again if peeps don’t stop talking about non-2019 non-headliners.
