Or you showed up for Radiohead 20 minutes in and were able to stroll nonchalantly into the pit?

Swapping your wellies for trainers might have meant you got to see even more of her set. 

Think I might have been wearing some good walking boots that night actually. Memory is a little stretched😌

On one of my frequent trips to the ground I noticed Matt wore sneakers… for sneaking!

Actually impressed you managed to see a chunk of each to be honest. 
 

The walk between Pyramid and Other is probably my least favourite.

Yeh there needs to be express route there for people explicitly legging it between stages and not ambling along for food!

[CaledonianGonzo]

There is - you're just not allowed to use it.

Everyone gets one stealth passage through there in their Glastonbury career. If you haven't had yours, maybe you are due.

I can't believe I wasted mine legging it to the Arctic Monkeys.

I waltzed in a few years back only to realise that my crew were behind me, humming and hawing at the threshold and - ultimately - scuppering our shot. I should have ploughed on.

If you didn't use your pyramid other pyramid run to see Jack White, Pixies and Metallica it was ultimately a waste.

None of them were particularly great to be fair but it's a cool run of bands

May be debatable, but that shambles effectively brought Jack White's solo career to an early conclusion.

I think so too. I think a lot of hype around him collapsed after that set.

He did headline Coachella the very next year.

And Mad Cool/RW a few years later. I’m not saying he’s fallen off, I’ve enjoyed his latest album. I just don’t think he’s been talked about the same way since his 2014 run.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pfffft. Facts. It was an instant and overwhelming self-cancellation.

Are we in agreement her best track is supercut?

The refrain ‘Cause in my head (In my head, I do everything right)’ is the biggest ear worm.

The feeling of...nostalgia? Supercut gives me is absolutely unparalleled, SO GOOD.

I said to my friend it sounds like Kylie Minogue and I mean that in the best way.

Solar Power feels like it's gaining a bit of momentum now after the tepid launch and leak.

[Tartan_Glasto]

It's defo grown on me a lot over the weekend, I'm really liking it.

Aye, it's a massive grower. Critical reception seems incredibly positive too. Can't wait for Mood Ring now.

[Matt42]

It sounds way better in the … sun…

Also it’s a perfect BBC Glastonbury montage song so she has to be performing.

One of my mates compared this with Hey Jude and I can't get the comparison out of my head now. Need an extended version with a 5 minute ending and I'll be happy.

Everyone says Beatles and stones but I can’t stop thinking about primal scream when I hear it.

Definitely has that crowd clapping along giving each other hugs kinda vibe. Very peace and love. She’s definitely been necking mushrooms.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'll look into it, but it's possible that Primal Scream may have some Stones influences.
