Primal Scream 2005, absolute car crash

We luckily arrived just in time for the highlight, as we went to see the Freestylers in the dance tent and then it transpired they cancelled, so we headed over for the Jaxx. Great memories:

To the fest? I didn't go to that one, just meant when the song goes off.

@deebeedoobee @pilton digger how was the Weekender?

I always look back fondly on the Alabama 3 Glade performance of 2015. Just one great big danceathon with a set list that featured every song I wanted them to play. An absolute banger of a show.

Barenaked Ladies in 93 and 99.

I know it sounds weird, but they were one of the most infectiously fun live bands I've ever seen.

And Beck '97.

This! Massively agree! One of my best sets this year. Right at the front (with George the Horse) going mental. Every time I see them they are fantastic! - Jessi

The choice between them or IDLES was my clashterfuck of the weekend.  Happy with my choice though

Friendly Fires this year was an unlikely highlight for me

Glad you enjoyed Dee

Bananarama this year. Remembering all the words and dance routines took me back to my school days. Loved it and there was such a great atmosphere.

Bar Steward Sons of Val Doonican at Avalon this year. I cry with laughter watching them. 

Thay are so much fun - great choice Cury Girl

[glastofun]

Maximo Park 2009 (I think) on a Thursday. Few other live acts and the crowd were desperate for them. So much fun!

Hot Chip 2008. Other Stage, as the sun was setting, amazing! 

Lady Gaga Other Stage 2009.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Hinds at The Park on the Sunday in 2016. I was a broken man but their energy and enthusiasm was infectious, brought me back from the brink.

Ta, will take a look! Shindig is similar FYI and Dub Pistols plat every year/programme a tent.

[TheNewUnion]

It's that mean Eddy Grant again. With Chic at West Holts a very very close second.

Mucky weekender and Shindig have the same production company.

This year, For me the funnest and funniest was the bar steward sons of val doonican on the Avalon stage. Classic songs such as the lady in Gregg's, Walking in man piss and massage in a brothel. Much better than the originals, lady in red, walking in  Memphis and message in a bottle

Hope they get booked for next year. They finished their set joined on stage by Hobo

Got their whole glasto set on a limited CD, 100 copies only, they produced . Brings back some great memories of their performance.

I missed out on the cd but I have it saved so I can still listen to it. I’d never heard of them before Bearded theory last year.

John Otway.

Saw him a number of times in the Cabaret Tent and once with band on the Acoustic Stage.

Very fond memories of this set brightening up an otherwise dreary afternoon in 2008. Chas and Dave also great for putting a smile on your face.
