Anyone else balling their eyes out during that? Bloody hell! I’m 43 for fucks sake 

Me! It was epic. Everything I hoped it would be.

Anyone here that didn’t go to see them dropped a massive clanger.

I remember turning up to watch one of their gigs a few years ago and at one stage it was only me and the band there, filled up afterwards ha ha.

Theyve come a long way since then

[FloorFiller]

So. Good. Was half considering not bothering with their late night set so I could hang with friends more tonight, but after seeing that first set I realise that isn’t an option. Gojira and Idles as Friday headliners it is.

[dingbat2]

That was simply brilliant. Very emotional gig, made it all the more special. When his wife and daughter came on, it made me blub

 

[Skoo]

Lovely stuff

[shoptildrop]

Watched it at home but what a set!!! If I was they I would have done the Gojira / Idles combo so would have missed this set

Idles - SE corner..... Mental! What a set. Mental!

I hate you. 

 

 

Seriously, after the Park set can't even imagine. FOMO  strong

[Simpo]

If I was at there, and at The Park, a big part of me would have dragged me to Shangers. But even on TV that Park set was special.

I'm going to Kendal Calling, they clash with Doves, how shiiiit!

[Rubber Soldier]

2 for 2 tonight. Park set was unreal. Nearly burst when Joe’s wife came out. Truth Stage set was amazing too. They were my headliners ?

[OddRon]

did they play television at the shangra set? was the only thing stopping the park set from being perfect

[majormajormajor]

The shangri la set was fucking wild. So much louder and so raw. I fucking love them. Twice in four hours, what a treat.

Really don't get the fuss, heard it all before and done better with originality. "Owen Jones The Band" basically, white middle class men preaching at us. 

[Andre91]

I’m watching The Park set on iPlayer now. They’re just the best. 

[Hugh Jass]

Could hear their Shangri-La set up in Worthy View, must have been feckin loud down there.

Can't tell if you are trolling or quoting their lyrics? ?

I'm not sure I agree with the labelling, but 'Owen Jones the band' is feckin' class lol

[JSmurphy]

When Joe's wife and daughter came on stage to comfort him I nearly lost it tbh. Fantastic set. 

Sold out Ally Pally already!

This take has been done before and better tbf.

Don’t really get why peeps care about them being apparently middle class if their hearts and heads are in the right place and you agree with what they’re saying - Glastonbury is kept alive by middle class people like that. And it’s not like those naysayers are instead flocking to ‘working class festivals’ or rallying round ‘working class bands’.

It’s dead stupid to attack people who promote the right ideas and sympathise with the working class just because they weren’t all born poor. Give me that over a self serving Tory any day.

Also from the people locally who know and have followed them, they are genuine people who have faced their own demons, worked hard at it and done it the right way. 

Great set at The Park. Could have done with being a bit louder though.

Yes, the other Joe faced a lot of this too. Does it make The Clash any less relevant or important?

I understand your point, but their song I'm Scum says "I'm council housed and violent", when none of the members grew up on a council estate.

Good song though.
