I thought it was pretty good. I reckon she's a class act and the session musicians prove they are vastly superior to most established bands. No surprise there though.

know it sounds daft but how do you access the 'red button'? pressed it and it just took me to 3 separate bbc channels, no choosing what to watch, that right?
spose i can look on iplayer during the week for bits and bobs.

just caught a bit of the maccabees, really like em.

So far I've liked The Waterboys , Staves , Young fathers and thought Paloma Faith was pretty decent. I'd like to see Suede but would no doubt be dragged along to see kanye. I doubt I'd miss the who for anything though.

Alabama Shakes ye gods she WAILS, loved it.

We too are couchgoers but the beers in and the surround sound is worth it looking forward to Motorhead, Hot Chip, Waterboys, Goat, THE FRICKIN FALL! and don't know what

Yeah, thought Young Fathers were very good too. Enjoyed The Waterboys set too as a bit of a throwback. Reckon I'd definitely head for Suede this evening.

Enjoyed Paloma & looking forward to Suede. Bit sick of seeing Burt Backache now though ..feel like I've seen his set 3 times ( & the singers were pants)

I saw a bit of the Young Fathers, it was good to see what they actually look like, I've only seen them in dark, dingy little clubs! Seemed to fit the festival scenario just as well.

Not seen anything that makes me think I ever should have gone or ever will go!

That set looks amazing.
Loved the stage-crasher! upset him that 😆
Seems to be going down well despite the pathetic "protests"

Looks like Kanye's scared of getting showered in pi55 so he opted for the low lights as a form of shelter.

Kanye, king of the bellends.

10's of thousands of white people on mass shouting the N Word. Oh Kanye you're so edgy.

His sound does cross the hip hop, rock divide though not my cup of tea. I am surprised anyone in the crowd can see him. I think I would be searching out some drum and bass right now. I have not been enthused by the coverage so far apart from Jungle yesterday.

Have to say im loving the Kanye West set so far...Black Skinhead was superb.

Bit like the man himself in how he splits opinions.

That lighting rig is a crap idea. Not enough variation and too hot for the cameras.

Anyway Suede are on.

I was pleasantly surprised. Then he started warbling in auto tune, which ruined it.

I've nae time for kanye or his posturing so i've avoided him - George Clinton/Funkadelic on west holts stage and Deadmou5 on the other stage are far better, it must be warm at Glastonbury as there's been a few bare chests on show during deadmou5's set so far

Suede - meh, never really got them. Lead singer bloke looks old now.
Deadmau5 - preferred Skrillex last year

Going to see what this Hopkins bloke gets up to now as everything else is a bit underwhelming.

Never really got on with Suede, I would have to burn my TV if it had been polluted by Kanye West, so am currently watching Burt Bacharach on the red button.

I like some of his songs, but he shouldn't be singing. He's a composer, not a frickin singer.

I don't think Brett looks so bad for a 47 year old. He should have his feet up whinging about all the shit bands at Glastonbury - like all of us, that's for sure, not hanging around a stage with loads of people singing his songs at him.

I think the ones I'm going to see tomorrow night at Hampden park may be a bit better 🙂

And 'give it up for my lighting guys' ... he's having a laugh, surely, isn't he?

Enjoyed Vintage Trouble, The Maccabees and a bit of Suede. Paloma wasn't bad, if a bit bland for festival music. Even on 96" with full cinema surround, Kanye doesn't do it for me. Too busy thinking what all those lights are doing to my bulb life. I'm 47 too.

Suede are still a class act.

Sleaford Mods scare me. Even though they're 200 miles away, I worry any minute now he's going to break into my house and start shouting at me.

Well, I have to admit it, I enjoyed Lionel's show. He put in a great performance - some crowd.

John Robb summed up that bland shit best by saying 'we had punk to get rid of this'

Edit. I think he was talking about war on drugs. I stand by the bland comment about alt j though 😉
