    Yeah I've a feeling that the Bjorn Again could be a ****take for someone massive.

    Some great bands but some poor ones. Sat on the ticket stage will be a super finish with Bloc Party Kasabian and hopefully the Prodigy pull a big performance out of the bag. But that clashes with the green room's finishing trio of Athlete Interpol and Ian Brown.

    Sunday is marginally better day. The foo fighters are a brilliant choice to close the festival. While Doves and New Order should be great lsitening on the 2nd stage.
    The Dance stage on Sunday is brilliant finsihing
    Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!

    Great weekend, what stood out for me was Razorlight, Kasabian and Ian Brown, although I didn't see anything that I didn't like, and that includes your man from Busted's new band!!!

    Everything was going swimingly until yesterday afternoon, remember when siting in the hot sun to drink loadsa water folks!!! I got some sunstroke and passed out!!! mad embarrassing, kinda put me in a bad mood for the rest of the day, ah well live and learn!!!

    I witnessed the collapse. It was a tense and worrying moment as Drums wobbled, wobbled and down... I think the Beautiful South just got a little heavy for him is all.

    I was like that for the Killers. I stood like a grumpy fool, wishing I was under a cold shower with a cup of tea and a fathita......

    It was a bit hot yesterday alright. I saw someone else getting carted away after sunstroke too D Red, so you're not alone. I was near the barrier outside the pit for a while and we got cups of water from security every 2 minutes so I was grand. Went for a lay down in the Green Room during Suzane Vega and the Alabama 3 which was the job, nice and cool

    Well I wouldnt really know too much of either of their stuff appart from the obvious.

    I was plesently surprised by Vega, good voice, good songs and got the crowd involved enough.

    Alabama 3 arent really my thing in general I think. They did a good rendition of the Sopranos theme song and had another one similar but then they went a bit too red neck folky for me and their song with Aslans Crazy World in it wasnt the best (although the girl who sings with them was hotter than anything the sun threw at us that day, although I was a bit back).

    Ha totally hear that. I regularly drifted in and out of these phases. The funniest things is that you're completely aware that your acting like a moany five year old but are powerless to do anything about it. I was there during the killers, but witnessing a four person stack of grown men, wobble in slow mo before plummeting death(or at least a comical injury) helped to remedy it somewhat

    I saw one of those pyramids getting pulled down by security, hillarious stuff! The guy on top must have been going 30 miles an hour (slow for a car, fast for a person) when he hit the ground... splat!

    Ha a pyramid started in front of me too. Three and then one man on top. Then a man solo'ed to my right. Then a naked guy got up in a thong thing. I didn't need to see that. A group of three brothers were in front of me and I couldnt decide which one deserved to be slapped first!!!

    I was a moany five year old but I did my damnest to not be too annoying as I was meeting my gf's best pal for years for the first time and didn't wanna appear too much of a nob!! Pity I don't exercise this approach on this board

    Just to be clear ...'Woke Up This Morning' is an Alabama 3 song.

    Haven't heard the thing they've done with Aslan but as I detest Aslan and that horrible horrible horrible 'Crazy World' song ...I'm guessing it's muck.

    If that girl is the one who sings 'Bulletproof' and she's as easy on the eye as she is on the ear -then i'm raging I missed it.

    Ya I know, just didnt know the title. Great song

    Muck of the highest order, made from spring water and Woddies finest compost. Its $hite!

    She was a bit easier on the eye actually
