Pet Shop Boys showing everyone exactly how you do a festival set as an established act; don't assume anyone knows you're deep cuts/new music just play the hits and have fun doing it. Knew they'd be good but that was insane. 

 

I'm not into hip hop that much but will check Kendrick Lamaar out another night.

The party's everywhere. All 4 big stage headliners absolutely smashing it by the sounds of it.

Sums it up perfectly. Not liking the act on the Pyramid? Terrible clashes? Who cares - as long as you like what you’re watching, I’m sure others will do too

Watching PSB now. Fucking awesome.

Do watch Kendrick. I only know a couple of his songs and I was captivated.

Thanks everyone, I've been on this site for years but not one for commenting much, I have enjoyed reading the comments whilst watching Glastonbury on TV most of the weekend.  Having not been unable to get tickets since I was last there in 2015 having this forum helped with the FOMO I once again had because I could not go to the festival, for me it is the best place on earth.  I'm now looking forward to working my way through all the sets on the iplayer, shame there is not much BBC Introducing this year but you can't have everything.

Again wanted to add my thanks to all contributors to this thread. We would have all rather have been there of course, but the coverage on the bbc and this forum have made the experience of watching from home a real pleasure. Thanks all and let’s hope we don’t need to be involved in the same thread next year!!

Take care everyone x

    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
    • Maybe you need a groovy mayor who can get you the money.   Anyway, looks like mayors going to get a whole load of fiscal devolution and greater powers...so best everyone gets one, a decent one, and get a load of Madchesterism.
