Lewis Capaldi

The Cure/ Vampire weekend are a close call but I'll go for the Cure.

[uscore]

Friendly Fires, Wombats, Christine and the Queen.

 

Surprised myself with the Wombats one, but I was up on a viewing platform, the weather was amazing, and it was just a very nice feel good set, with all the hits.

I left the Park after Idles, I wanted to stay for MK, but was on my own. I had no money, nothing to drink & nothing to pick me up. I went back to my tent. I am a bit gutted I missed him, but I had to really. Glad he was good. I hope he got a decent crowd.

Does @Hugh Jass have any current running totals yet or do we definitely have to wait until the end of the week? Just interested and impatient, that's all.

Sorry but the totals will not be revealed until the final votes are cast. I don’t want to encourage tactical voting.

I’m already noticing that acts playing more than one set are suffering as their votes are getting split. Fontaines would be a contender had they only played once.

[Lunabella]

1) IDLES (Park)

2) IDLES (Truth)

3) The Cure

Awe man sorry to hear that, I thought he put on a right show, we climbed up the hill after his set to have a drink and "sort ourselves out" and tbh the cat power set looked very lack luster in comparison kind of felt bad that they followed him.

Fontaines DC (rabbit hole)

Idles (Park)

Snapped Ankles (William's Green)

The hottest and the most pungent set I’ve ever seen (the two may have been linked). I was really looking forward to them but the heat in that tent was horrendous and meant that I struggled to get into it.

[The Spandex Warrior]

1. Nick Mulvey

2. Idles

3. Chemical Brothers

honourable mentions to The Cure, Friendly Fires and Lukas Nelson

Yeah, I was going to see Snapped Ankles there but WG really was unpleasant, humid and with a terrible stench so I sacked it off and went for s pint next door instead. 

[EugenesAxe]

1) Tame Impala

2) Jungle 

3) Billie Eilish 

Honorable mentions for Jeff Goldblum and Mac DeMarco though, both put on cracking sets.

[JohnEW52]

1. Christine & The Queens ( one of my top 5 sets out of 11 festivals)

2. Nick Lowe (especially his beautiful encore of Elvis Costello’s Alison, which Nick produced).

3. This is The Kit

Honourable mentions to Rosealia, Vampire Weekend and the Jeremy Hardy tribute. 

Combination most hilarious and teary moment was hearing a recording of Jeremy singing Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah in the style of George Formby from I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue.

Most relevatory moment was realising why I hadn’t bothered seeing Hawkwind for 47 years.

Most surreal stage change was watching Rosalia, where I was at least 30 years older than the average age of the crowd and dashing across to see the end of Steeleye Span’s set, where at 66 I was below the average age.

Ha! That’s true. A couple of my mates had to leave. No idea why they couldn’t have opened the sides of the tent.
