I personally haven't watched much because the TV coverage would probably just annoy me. I've watched a couple of sets live online though. Following revelations that The Libertines new album will be different from their previous material and will feature piano, organ and be produced by a guy who's done stuff with people like One Direction, they managed to slip in 2 new tracks without me even noticing. Perhaps they'll be different on record... Anyway, I thought they were much more coherent than usual and Pete looked quite well. Of course I'm in no way biased, but I thought Spiritualized were pretty amazing last night on The Park Stage. It gave them the opportunity to play a few lesser known tracks. New song 'Here It Comes (The Road, Let's Go)' is getting better every time I hear it. Can't find the Glasto version online yet, but this one from a while back is almost identical apart from having a less noisy ending... 2nd EDIT: Here's the full set because I know everyone really cares! ![]() http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0 ... ritualized |

Every year I watch a bit, knowing that all it's really going to do is remind me that TV strips most of what is good out of live music. And that's what happens - plenty of half decent stuff going on, but it sounds hollow on the telly. Sleaford Mods was the only thing I could watch all the way through. Motorhead are ace of course, but if you ain't there... Most of the rest were bands I half-like at best. We did watch 3 songs of Spiritualized while having our tea last night. It was the only thing the kids would tolerate, weirdly. |

the only thing I watched start to finish was the Super Furry Animals set, which I thought was brilliant and the last 2 songs (mountain people and the man don't...) just highlighted how bereft of ideas most bands are. I saw a few bits of others but my patience for tv music is limited |

Oh, meant to ask, who was the guy that did "the Broom" song just before Fat White Family. Sure I've heard it before, but couldn't place him. |

On the bill it had The Staves going on before Fat White Family, but I'm guessing it wasn't them. My missus watched SFA's set and thought it was pretty amazing. |

Yeah, it was a bloke who came on by himself and did one rather entertaining song. The Brooooooom The Brooooooooom. Looks like its on iplayer as part of the FWF set. |
