Watching the stones is making me very wishful that Paul will return next year. I think it would be incredible 

Think his daughter Stella strongly implied that he'll be returning next year!

Just saw my Glasto at home pics on the BBC coverage! Bloody cried when I saw that empty Pyramid field

Havent removed anything really. Just adding. What Really keeps changing is whats live and what isnt. But if you know whats missing, then itll be easy to track down.

That Stones set was so good, first headliner I ever saw on pyramid. Set a high standard which is yet to be beaten for me

[MrZigster]

It was also (Stones Year) the year of The Host File Hack. The queue for Gate B was so full of techy types.

I think so. If you tried the full program command it could still search for things that arent visible. At least that was my impression. Cause yesterday when I attempted the full downlod it grabbed audio of coldplays set, which isnt on the page, but maybe the bbc sounds broadcasts. Still havent gone back to try it again so maybe there will be other things.

There can't have been many stronger openings to Pyramid headline sets than Crazy In Love and Single Ladies.

I wasn’t there, but what a power move. Speaks volume for how many bangers she has when she can just standardly open her sets with Crazy in Love like it ain’t shit.

Didnt see the Stones at Glasto obvi, but saw them the month before in the u.s. and was able to nab a $75 mystery ticket. They sold 1000 tickets each gig at that price and they were in every place around the arena. You couldve gotten anything from floor standing to upper level.  Arrived early and picked the right old lady who was assigning those tickets and got Tongue Pit. Walked in and was one person from the barricade. The people in front of me had paid $1500 for guaranteed Tongue Pit and early entry.  Dave Grohl was the special guest that night and they did Bitch. Incredible show.

Beyonce nailed this set. I thought both her and her band were great. Was really glad I chose to go to this. I had a really good time!

[fatyeti24]

Beyonce's is the set I've watched the most over the years, and out of the ones I was actually in the field for she's only bettered by the Rolling Stones.

Opening with those two and then closing with Halo with two giant Wayne Rooney's on the screen behind her. Nobody can't deny it was a classic set with moments like that.
