They’re knocking the absolute bollocks out of this set. I feel half mesmerised and half ecstatic.
art you can wallow in, dance to; they’re in a place that’s so sublime and so primitive.
Kudos also to the BBC for how they frame it all nowadays.
::jealous::
They are amazing. Enjoy.
They’ve tripped up a few times - I’ve seen them a few times and this is not the tightest of performances at all. But the occasion and mood are more important I suppose. Nice to hear them revisiting their 90s work.
That actually felt like a farewell set. I really hope not…
Ah, that sounds great. I saw them in Atlanta nine years ago. Would love to see them again. Great show.
They really know how to build a set, and Glastonbury tonight was a prime example, but I wish I liked them as much as as my other musical tastes indicate that I should.
I’m only 3 minutes in and already know I’ll be agreeing with the OP.
And as for the Saturday headliners … I’ll never understand the popularity of Foo Fighters; isn’t it just shallow, superficial crap - what do they do that isn’t cliched and derivative?
I’d definitely take a Glastonbury moment and head off elsewhere.
LOL. The Legends slot on Sunday afternoon slays me every year.
Unless you watch it you can’t describe how the audience pumps up the old timers - who’ have thought Barry Gibb, Barry fucking Gibb … can’t believe I’m saying this but … truly bloody marvelous 
Anyway, Ed Sheeran closes tonight, which will be a thing - I sense a Glasto moment.
So on the Glastonbury thing, there’s so much you can’t help but miss good things. I saw Brandon Flowers say they’d played Mr Brightside fifteen hundred times and this was probably the best time - this is a side tent, though officially one of the six stages. You know you’ve having a good gig when noise builds from the back of the room …
Also, back on theme, Radiohead did do Creep
I was there when Johnny Cash basically started that whole thing off. According to Andy Kershaw, Cash was nervous as hell about the gig - worried about the reception he’d get - but that really, really wasn’t a problem at all. 
(as an aside, good to see the Bishop of Bath and Wells hanging about at the side of the stage)
That’s so sweet - he and June look so nervous and they really don’t know what to expect. You can see the Legends culture hasn’t developed just yet.
Takes him about 10-15 mins to relax and feel the vibe. Bless him!
It was great. I’m pretty sure Radiohead played that year too, but not on the main* stage.
*as in the old Pyramid stage went on fire a couple of weeks beforehand and they had to get one in from another festival at very short notice
Seeing as I’m still awake and rambling the best thing that year was Orbital on the NME stage. Mind. Expanding.
