phillyfaddle Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) ? Tough one. Based solely on my memory of my enjoyment levels, I’m going for, in no particular order: Neil Young, Pyramid (2009) Hot Chip, WH (2015) Royal Blood, JP (2014) Flaming Lips, Park (2017) Iggy & The Stooges, Other (2007) Closely followed by Prodigy, Underworld, Stormzy, Jimmy Cliff, Eddy Grant.....and more! EDIT: Peatbog Faeries, Avalon....Sat headliner 05 or 07 I think, it was a riot in there!! Edited May 19, 2019 by phillyfaddle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was too young when they were big and they weren't touring by the time I was really going to gigs. Missed their Xmas number 1 thank you gig in the UK and now in two minds as to whether to risk seeing Prophets of Rage. Whenever we play 'fantasy Glasto lineup' (usually Sunday afternoon after we start drinking all our remaining booze) they are consistently my Pyramid headliners.

I was too young when they were big and they weren't touring by the time I was really going to gigs. This still hurts. My mother, little brother and sister went that year, loved the set and he (my brother 9 years old at the time) somehow managed to have his shorts signed by one of them. I was in Canada that summer and they also did Phoenix and Reading that year without me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazola Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Top 2 is easy, can't put one above the other: Chic at West Holts 2013, absolute party from start to finish Blur 2009, just incredible atmosphere, both the band and crowd seemed to know something special was happening. The rest is a bit trickier, so many to chose from, and for so many different reasons. But the following stand out: Snoop 2010 - I dare say the weather had a big hand in this, but it was such a good vibe in that crowd Underworld 2016 - another great party at West Holts The last one is a bit more obscure, but I would have to say Mundo Jazz the first time I saw them either 2008 or 2009. Became a tradition for a few years to see them Sunday night somewhere over by gate C, can't remember the stage. Not been there for a few years but was always a good laugh. It's also quite possible that Radiohead 2017 should be in my top 5, I'd built up seeing my favourite band in my favourite place for the first time so much that I got a bit over excited and over indulged and can't remember any of it ?

MEGABOWL Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) This could change tomorrow but for now I’ll go with REM 2003 Bon Iver 2009 (Park) Blur 2009 Coldplay 2011 Stones 2013 On another day Radiohead 2003, Gaslight Anthem 2009, Flaming Lips/The National/Pet Shop Boys/Stevie 2010, Elbow 2011, Chic 2013, Hot Chip 2015 and LCD 2016 would be in there.

Doug85 Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Not as much to choose from as others however: Foo Fighters 2017 Beans on Toast- Leftfield 2017: great set accompanied with the 2 girls who had written to him about their story and he wrote a song about them, they ended up dancing on stage with him whilst he played their song, such a lovely moment. Radiohead 2017 Wolf Alice 2016 First Aid Kit 2017 *special mention to Hobo Jones in 2016 though who started off my first Glastonbury in style in the limited amount of sun that weekend.

For those that don't know them have a listen to Forever Changes. I didn’t see them at Glastonbury but caught them at Roskilde, presumably that same year. I was aware of the high regard in which they were held but didn’t know the music. I went and bought ‘Forever changes’ immediately afterwards. The gig was a bit messy (and Arthur Lee kept addressing the Danish crowd as ‘Sweden’) but I realized that the songs were amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watergirl Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Great question indeed. 1. Rolling Stones 2013 2. Leonard Cohen 2008 3. Patti Smith 2015 4. Pulp 1995 5. Beck 1997 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarw Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 2004 Macca- my first Glasto and a fantastic sing along set with fireworks 2017 Kate Tempest never has a gig caused so much emotion in me 2015 Patti Smith just amazing 2011 & 2016 Coldplay two very different sets special in different ways for me but I couldn’t choose between them and they don’t deserve to have 2/5 ???? Too Many DJs Arcadia right mood right time total experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
