UEF Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Oasis in 2004. I'd been at the front all day. You know how you sort of... stop pooing for a couple of days when you go camping? Well it decided to announce itself halfway through their set. So I had to make my way back from the front row of the pyramid to Pennard (!) to get some toilet roll then go back out to the longdrops at the top of the field. Talk about a photo finish. I spent the rest of their 'set' in my tent feeling a bit overawed by the whole thing (Glastonbury, not the poo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie_corrigan Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Kings of Leon in 2008 but left half way through as I’ll be honest they were shite. Got off and went to the shiny new Shangri la area 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think this was the first year they had it, the location then by the railway track. Attached the map to show just how much the site has increased. Remember the tent being packed, him teasing the crowd a fair bit "Roses requests?", and the show being stopped a couple of times because people were climbing up the gantry thing in the middle of the tent. Great atmosphere, the set was pretty much just the first album as I remember. I've seen someone talk about that gig (possibly on here?) - one lad dropped some acid and then climbed up the pole in the middle and started doing monkey impressions at him which caused the gig to be stopped?!

DareToDibble Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I am having an absolute nightmare in these threads. After figuring out my first ever act was Kaiser Chiefs I've now just discovered my first headliner was Skrillex. I wasn't bothered about who we saw so went along with my mate and stood at the back near the ice cream van but even still...I don't deserve tickets anymore.

I will happily take them off your hands although the fact that Gorillaz were my first and I loved them even though everyone says they were shite probably damages my reputation somewhat as well.

I suppose at your first headliner you also have nothing to compare it to. For me just to be able to say that I saw Lou Reed live will always mark it as special. Would I have preferred Blur the year before absolutely but I went away from that set perfectly happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We taking headliners? If so consider that swap deal accepted. Gorillaz performance may not have gone down too well but they’re still a lot more credible than Skrillex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
