Yeah, that's way hard.  Given that two bands couldn't go on, it might be fair to give it if anyone got either of the first two.

Happy to give it away for The Subways! Clues I had were that their name is similar to a Jack White side project. And they were like a not crap version of The Ordinary Boys.

[Homer]

Sorry, was on a phone break.

Correct- I thought it was 2010 before I checked as it was the 1st year I had been in a while and 1st year I did early morning litter pick and was part of the West Holts crew

Not what I was thinking of ...

Was it when news broke Attenborough would speak on stage, or was that the Saturday? 

[Quark]

Me blubbing like a child when the confetti cannon fired off during All The Lovers 

[Crazyfool01]

Nope and probably yes ... but unfortunately not there to witness that @Quark ...  I think a few of us may have shed a tear during Kylie 

[Tranquility of Solitude]

Me receiving third degree burns on my receding hairline after selflessly giving my hat to my daughter who had left hers at the tent. Before also blubbing during All The Lovers.

Did all this blubbering make the news ?  

[Homer]

I didn’t watch Kylie but didn’t she wear the hotpants or something?

(band who got booted off the other stage was the dead 60s btw)
