Fantastic, I didn't get tickets in 2017 so missed out on seeing them then.

Edit: Although I still don't have tickets for next year yet.

Haim new album getting terrific reviews.

[Andre91]

I’m watching Metallica’s set and I remember that I was on holiday in Greece at the time and I got up super early to sit down in the pool bar and use their WiFi to watch it

Thanks was so good! Love HAIM. I always go to see them at the festival. That set had me dancing around my living room and shouting "HEY!" with the band and audience during the multi drum finale. Loved it!

[Chapple12345]

I was due to see Haim at Latitude so it’s rather bittersweet to watch it now, their new album is brilliant so I’m hoping they come back next year to play both that and Glasto

Just started watching the Acoustic programme from last night.  Now Paolo Nutini looked like he was enjoying the festival!!

Loved watching that. Was one of our must sees. Admittedly with 50 others!  Their drummer has the best hair in the band !

OK. watching the Chems set and I am actually brought to tears.

Not only a great set, but the interaction of the crowd. Hugging, bouncing... even chatting to each other at close proximity.

I remember I had excess glow-sticks so was handing them out to revellers, families and youngsters. So far from the current situation 😥

For me the chems set in 2011 was their best. Kinda gutted it’s omitted from this weekends highlight reel.

Also no Portishead is a disappointing unless I’ve missed them off the schedules

Lovely stuff. I’m not surprised they are likely to come back I just wanted to see the evidence.

[kaytee...]

Nice surprise seeing Janelle Monae's 2011 set on now, thought it would be last year's

[CaledonianGonzo]

Yeah. Nice surprise and a set that slaps.

Both great sets. I think I only knew tightrope at the time, but we went along to this after Pulp's secret set on the Park. Amazing evening, classic Glasto 🥰

[CaledonianGonzo]

Aye - the Pulp -> J-Money combo was the way to do it back in 2011.

I was just gonna say this, when I saw them they did like 5 cover songs. Infact their last big gig at Fenway Park they did 6.

Beyonce did like 3? Prince/KOL/At Last (which she sang in a film so I wouldn't personally count this) 

The Prince one was great cos I don't reckon alot would know it.. Think he won an award for that song.. Did you go to fenway.. If so fair play...on the PJ covers they are on stage for 2plus hours.. Not sure how long Beyonce was on tbf.. And no I don't like her music but she does do a high octane show.. 

And one ton baby I won't give it a rest.. Chill out old son.. Day 2 of glastonbury.. I hope your on the cider.. Ti's fucking glastonbury.. Chiillllll out

Is Pulp '95 due to go onto the iPlayer? Sure I read that somewhere

[nikkic]

I mean Janelle Monae can sing, but she can’t paint for shit.

I'm just watching Elbows 2011 Pyramid set. I have always loved them from very early on ,met Guy Garvey in the toilets at the Apple store in Regents st when they had just released SSK 😁. I was at this somewhere by the sound stage,  texting my brother who was listening by our tent in Kidney Mead, to come down, he was not a fan then, got converted by One day like this at the end and by then it was too late 🤣. But really shouldn't this band now be headlining, and before we get the naysayers, they have a tremendous back catalogue now with one if the best front men I'm the business and would put on a great show as a Sunday Pyramid headliner. It's a mystery to me why the haven't.

If I had a time machine I’d be off to NME Stage to see that, plus Blur... Radiohead... Pulp... Spiritualised...on that same stage, on the same day!

My first was '95. I feel very similar. Isn't hindsight wonderful etc....

Makes you wonder what future musical behemoths we've possibly wandered past and ignored during the last couple of festivals.
