No, you reminded me of one of the greatest gigs I've ever been to. Chas'n'Dave acoustic tent singalong, absolute magic in the tent that day. I'll wait until my hangover subsides in future before getting snippy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see when they played sonisphere a few years back, had a mosh going, so funny. Now that I would have liked to have seen. I completely lost my voice singing along . I think the beautiful south played the next night in the same tent great sing along also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fingers_mark Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 1999 - Super Furry Animals ( fave band at my first festival ) 2000 - Moby ( on top of his game ) 2002 - Elbow ( Grace Under Pressure! ) 2004 - Hope of the States ( such a great band ) - McCartney was great too 2005 - Brian Wilson ( sun finally came out! ) 2007 - Arcade Fire ( owned the Other Stage ) 2008 - The National ( ended in style on John Peel ) 2009 - Blur ( clearly ) - Springsteen joining Gaslight too 2010 - Pet Shop Boys - LCD ( both so much fun ) 2011 - Chemical Brothers ( had to include them once ) 2013 - Rolling Stones ( clearly ) - Chic too 2014 - Arcade Fire ( see above for Pyramid ) 2015 - Jon Hopkins ( perfect Park headliner ) 2016 - M83 ( great in new John Peel ) Loads more close behind! Rarely see a bad one through choice, though Rodriquez on The Park wasn't great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeeroo Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 2008 - Had to go back and look at old pictures to work out who I actually saw that year. My findings have presented me with Seasick Steve. 2009 - Blur. Blur. Blur. Blur. Blur. Blur. 2010 - Ray Davies 2011 - Coldplay 2013 - Evan Dando 2014 - Arcade Fire 2015 - Hinds 2016 - Chvrches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Familiar2billions Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 19 hours ago, Untz said: I'm not sure about the entire set, but the beginning of the set was amazing. The energy in the field was so high - he could have dropped the mic after 99 Problems and walked off and it would have been enough. I did get a bit bored throughout the set, but I'm not a fan of Jay Z or rap in general. Fair comment, but yeah that intro was one of the best ive ever seen. A proper hairs on the back of the neck moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spindles Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 That Portishead set looks like it may have supplanted Blur as the all time favourite Glastonbury headliner. This forum has good taste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinK Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Only been to 13,14,15 and 16. For me Christine and the Queens were incredible last year in a difficult morning slot, on the other stage and in the rain. She nailed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil3rd Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Royal Blood in the John Peel tent. 2015 I think. They had the whole place rocking. Kasbian the same year. I watch the video of Fire on YouTube and it makes me smile every time. Christine and the Queens last year. Amazing to see live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
