Honorable mention for Unknown Mortal Orchestra at the Park. Ah missed the Teskey Brothers. Think I was on shift. Saw them a few years ago (Bearded, I think?) knowing nothing about them and loved them. Thought they might be a bit 'lost' on the other. Glad it went well for them. 10 hours ago, Bristol Boy said: 1 Elton - perfect end to the weekend 2 Max Richter - not cried since Blur 2009 so bookies were giving long odds on Midday Saturday 3 Generation Sex - best mess around with mates of the weekend Lana might have made the list if she had finished her set. Young Fathers, Sparks, Loyle Carner, Hot Chip all quality. Only act I saw I really didn’t like was Joey Badass although he told the crowd they had witnessed an all time classic Glastonbury set. Max Richter was a lovely way to start the day. Just a shame it was immediately followed by going on site but hey that's the deal I make.

Sunday night / Monday 2am. Mental. Brilliant. I was hammered, but it was great. Ha, Henge was the thing that sent me back to the van. It was all just a bit much by that stage. At 2am any other day I'm sure I would've loved it. Just not Monday. I am grateful to them though. Meant I didn't feel quite as terrible yesterday.

1986 Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 1. Yusuf/ Cat Stevens - cried twice, amazing set list and his voice is flawless. 2. The War On Drugs - massive sound, sunset slot, one of my favourite bands, easy win. 3. Earl Sweatshirt - One of the best rappers around at the moment. Genuinely hilarious between songs and has a real confidence as an artist to shun all cliche moments from a concert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 1. Max Richter. Such a beautiful way to start the day. 2. Elton John. 'nuff said. 3. Ivo Graham. Got bored midway through GnR so pottered off to get some food and head to Cabaret. Half an hour of properly laughing my arse off. Honourable mentions to Slowdive, Teskey Brothers, Comet Is Coming, Gwenno and Wheel Of Four Tunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The field was so up for it and into them, it was the perfect combination of time, venue, place, sound system, people, band, everything. Just 😊 +1 honourable to Young Fathers, forgot them!

airwaves Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 I refuse to include Elton as part of my "top three". His set transcends everything on site over the weekend I'll give you Cat Stevens Fever Ray Cvrches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mario man Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 I was with my daughter so saw a lot less than usual, but still saw some great stuff - my 3 favs were: Elton - amazing experience which totally lived up to the hype BCNR - incredible set; absolute silence in the crowd around me (way back at mixing desk) so you know everyone is totally engaged - the reaction to Turbines/Pigs was emotional The Hives - I forgot how much fun they were, attracted a massive crowd and a great way to start the main stage music for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Badly Drawn Boy, The Unthanks and The Foos probably my favourite three. No real love Dave G & co, but being in that field with my missus and friends - all having the time of their life, singing and dancing in the sun - there’s nothing and nowhere like it.

Barney McGrew Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Only did Sunday, so: Elvana, Elton, Becky Hill Oh, and Doreen Doreen, shame it was such a short set though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRhys29 Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Elton aside, I'd go: Foo Fighters Carly Rae Jepsen Skindred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshuwarr Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 1. Carly Rae Jepsen Near perfect setlist, great crowd and she was so clearly up for it and having the time of her life. Hearing Run Away With Me live was what the kids would call a 'core memory' for me. 2. Joesef Was a hard decision deciding not to go see Lizzo but I'm glad I stuck around for Joesef instead. Enjoyed hearing all the songs off his record and being part of a lovely crowd that were all just there to sing and have fun. Perfect weather too. 3. Foo Fighters Not even sure I expected it to be in my top three but it was just all round good vibes. I really loved his performance with his daughter too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fingerbobs Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) 1. Queens Of The Stone Age - last saw them 20 odd years ago on the same stage and wow, what a difference a couple of decades makes. Absolute monster of a performance. 2. Sparks - great fun and the first set I properly enjoyed after spending much of the day in Festival Medical Services with concussion after a mishap earlier in the day. Ron Mael bounced through the whole set, singing flawlessly throughout and Russell's dance was the best all weekend. 3. Weyes Blood - another great set which made me feel quite emotional in that inexplicable Glastonbury way.

Soleili Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 1. Elton John - need I say more 2. Viagra Boys - never heard of them before the festival but one person in our group loves them. So glad I went to see them, the crowd was just absolutely electric and the band were so much fun 3. Fred Again - so much fun. The sunset, the pure joy on his face and how much the crowd was bouncing was such an amazing experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidpresentable Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 1. Sophie Ellis-Bexter 2. The Magic Numbers 3. Lana Del Rey (despite issues...) Also loved Texas, The Lightning Seeds, Dom Joly, Cerian, Foos and a few others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
