Yeah he did. Quite possibly the best party Glastonbury has ever witnessed. No idea who was on elsewhere 

Was an amazing night, hence were I got my name from and the outfit I had on for the set in my photo 😀

That explains the suit, thought you’d been tangoed 😊😉.  It will be a party in the sun.

Was touching on my frustration with Chic live in another thread, but got me thinking - what's the weirdest venue anyone has seen them?

 

I caught them in a prison courtyard.

Wouldn’t say necessarily weird but the best and not a traditional venue was the 2011 Warehouse Project in its old home under Piccadilly Train Station.

Dude is likely loaded from his hedge fund investments and can thus have his private jet to fly to all these shows.

 

It's not that long ago he was flying Easyjet. I'm sure there was some sort of scandal when they wouldn't give him water to take his pills or something.

I didn't even realise they'd done that joint. Nice shout.

 

Mine was Fremantle Prison, WA. Unseasonably cold night too.

Was a great night, Johnny Marr guested with Chic and some great DJs Jeff Mills, Simian Mobile Disco, Bicep to name a few.

 

As the Warehouse Project is in November it was pretty cold too, but the MDMA gave a warm glow that night

Won't lie that the words "MDMA" coming from a user with an image taken from It Ain't Half Hot, Mum is not what I expected.

He'll probably claim he wrote it.

He does have form for this.

Nile self-confirmed so I'm certainly not questioning that level of info but with him at Glastonbury on Sunday 29th, that's 5 days in a row in 4 different countries... not sure he'll have ever done that before. He's also playing 5th July (not quite in screenshot below) so he has only 2 days off out of 11 (25th June to 5th July). Some sets, Glastonbury included, may well only be an hour long but it's still quite surprising to see. If he hadn't self-confirmed, we'd probably have him ruled out with that schedule/amount of shows on consecutive days

 

Edit - They're also playing Love Supreme on Sunday 6th July so that's 2 days off out of 12!

 

False alarm, apologies folks. But my lord, what a schedule he for them few weeks!

[NorthernSoul52]

He's going to be coining it in!
