BambooShanks Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 In no particular order as they are all as special in their own way 1. Stevie Wonder - The first pyramid headliner I saw and will always have a special place in my heart 2. Chic (West Holts 2013) - Hit after hit after hit after hit after hit. Amazing set, fantastic atmosphere. The way the crowd sang get lucky at him at the end was wonderful 3. Massive Attack (2014) - Left me and my mate speechless. Absolutely breathtaking set 4. Kate Temptest (West Holts 2017) - Captured the mood of post brexit ref britain perfectly. A most cathartic and emotional set. 'Peoples faces' as a close to the set nearly got me crying. It was so amazing to see the support for her. 5. Jon Hopkins (Park 2015), I'd waited years to see him live and it was one of the best electronic live sets I've seen at the Farm.

Probably some more that I'll think of in a minute or two. I had to limit to five, and just put down what came to mind first...otherwise you'll go crazy. I left off Portishead in 2013, Nick Cave '13, mogwai...2014 at park? So many to choose from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
