Oh FFS. We're not sure if we'll be back by then as we're going on a roadtrip to the Alps. Plan is to be back by the 20th but the point of a road trip is to be able to stop off where we want and not rush back.

Wasn’t there because some genius decided to put Beck up against her.

(Beck smashed it too)

To an equally dead AF crowd

Beck was brilliant... shame the crowd were there for Coldplay.

I fucked off sharpish after Beck, was stopped by a random girl who said "only you and your mate seemed like you enjoyed that as much as us"

He should have headlined the Park

I was right down the front safely in a small pocket of people genuinely enjoying it.

The Futureheads, third row.

 

Can't believe they're still going, used to love them.

I think it was a question of right act in the wrong slot. He was trying to inject to energy onto a jaded, early Sunday evening crowd and it didn't quite come off. Plus, as you say, a large number were waiting for Apple Martin's Dad and the Boys. 

Headlining the Park up against Coldplay would have been preferable. A smaller, more dedicated crowd usually makes for a better set.

You must have been where we were then, had around 20 or so people having a good time but was depressing looking around and seeing people actively ignoring one of the best artists of the last 25 years.

I love their version of Hounds Of Love.

I was literally listening to The Futureheads on Monday thinking if they don't come back soon then they never will. Well happy with that ngl.

Gave my christmas playlist its first outing last night, and Futureheads popped up - was wondering if they were still going. Enjoyed a few of their tunes back in the day.

Christmas Was Better In The 80s! Haven't listened to that in a long time. Good tune.

Most of their albums have a little bit of filler, but there's a mint setlist to be made out of them.

Aye, they did an amazing black eyed peas accapella cover as well at some point. I think it was good anyway, I haven't gone back to it in a while.

I heard Skip To The End the other day and it sounds so weird without the radio dj saying skip to the end at the start like everyone's limiewire version used to have.

Speaking of stuff I used to listen to, Taking Back Sunday have a few 20th anniversary dates in mid/late June. John Peel slot or nah?
