This is about the best clip I’ve found so far. 11 mins long and good quality. 
 

I would’ve liked to have been there 👍

 

 

 

All the clips I’ve seen are like this. Just seemed like they were larking about. Some weird transitions, too many restarts The boiler room set was far superior and the reason i will watch Fred…

Cool, but the majority who fit this bill are probably not. Conservative voters do have to come from somewhere

Stupid discussion anyway. Nobody knows and unless he says something nobody will know.

If you’ve got talent, and he clearly does. Does it matter how you get there? Really? In the bigger scheme of things, you either like said artist or not really. 

To some on here it clearly does. 

He can’t do anything musically without someone mentioning something about his parents or wealth.

I went to go see them in January at Electric Brixton and it was a good laugh. Really not sure about this tweet though…

I actually tend to agree with them. That will knock the shit out of any of the Glastonbury headliners this year.

I mean, "not EDM" is subjective, but to me, it's basically Swedish House Mafia with added weepy piano, and a few extra pop remixes....

Set and transitions are sloppy as fuck. It's all over the place, and not in a good way. Barely a step above someone playing random shit on their ipod at a party. Fred BR or a regular Four Tet DJ set are infinitely better.

There’s a part of me that thinks that it’s supposed to be like that yano. It’s messy as hell and absolutely all over the place but it’s meant to be a bit daft I think. It’s not meant to be taken dead serious, look at them playing they’re absolutely taking the piss.

It's just not really for you I think.

It's a deliberate rejection of perfect sets.

But I guess that begs the question who is it for? And I really don't think it's a deliberate rejection of perfect sets, I think it's just 3 mates having a bit of a laugh, no need to intellectualise it beyond that - but it really does just sound like a few coked up dudes at a house party throwing up tunes from their ipods.

For me it’s the chemistry and the tunes they chose to play. When they dropped fine night tonight I almost shit myself. One of my all time favs. 

I don’t think it’s deliberate either. I just think they are having fun which comes across in the show. 
 

They could easily headline the Other Stage, it’s just a shame they’re not lol

You missed the Taylor Swift mash up

 

Fyi, Skrillex, Four Tet and Fred wouldve been in the Sahara Tent in the same spot as Blink if Frank hadnt shat the bed weekend 1. Dont think anyone wouldve been at another stage if it went down that way.

    • Having done all three, Porto is lovely, very chilled but nowhere near as exciting as Barcelona (nor as many options). Bilbao BBK has charm but again not a patch on Barcelona really.   ps and the beer was 5.50, not 5, last year 😉 
    • Honest question and with the risk of getting slaughtered, do you feel people should stop the chatting on the entire field? When my group is in the front rows we surely keep the talking to a minimum and largely only about how great or bad the artist is. But surely on the main field when you are further back (lets say around the bars (200 meters from the podium) you should be able to have a conversation. If people are still annoyed about that I would recommend them moving up further.
    • I just genuinely think they don't understand technology and its felt like this since the invention of the internet.   Also see say a speech on a Monday saying we want to be a world leader in "this thing" then on a Wednesday another speech saying "this thing" is bad and needs to be banned/regulated out of existance.
    • My party again had an outstanding 4 days in Barca. We made the right call to leave the festival site early at about 10.30 on Thursday to get ourselves some excellent steaks in the city. I am with everyone that the organization should have been clearer about what is going on and also if you would like to get rid of some attendees open more exits, they sent us from gate to gate until we finally were able to get out. Biggest 'disappointment' was the beer price, a YoY increase from 5 to 6 is absolutely nuts!!! (i am living in Switzerland so me making this comment says something 🙂)   Top 10:   1. Men I Trust 2. Role Model (could have been first as well, what a great artist and great songs) 3. The XX 4. The cure (the last 90 minutes) 5. Gorillaz 6. MBV 7. Ninajirachi (another big miss of the organization, clearly on the wrong podium and wonder if Olivia's surprise set had something to do with that and they had to reschuffle late the Occident, Cupra and Port schedules) 8. NewDad 9. Big Thief 10. Annastashia      We did 3 years Barca now and for next year looking at the Porto or Bilbao festivals as an option. 
    • Personally if it was me now, I would be grabbing a green camping ticket with the knowledge closer when I've refreshed that I can still choose general if I want to....you can't do the opposite!    I would say if you are happy to watch your headliners and big bands further back to be able to see who you actually plan to later then yes it is fine. Its a much difference experience to any other festival especially food wise and camping surrounds.    Once you're in the arena as well you're not going back unless you've got a gap. If I go again I'll be going with the option of not trying to push the front and enjoying further back as you actually put too much pressure on it than the time take away can forget to enjoy other acts.
