What a moment this was. That’s a big crowd, right there. Packed beyond the tree at the top of the hill. 80,000+ fans helping him out. Beautiful.

FBS set on the Beeb already - https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001n9yr/glastonbury-fatboy-slim

Eavis has let a few run over on the Pyramid down the years, but they have to pay a fine - and offer an explaination - to Mendip Council. Probably in no mood to do that for Del Ray given that she started late...

Haven't seen today's performance yet, but saw him and Blossoms do their Smiths set at Kentish Town in 2021 and he didn't need lyrics then. Said at the time that they'd storm Glastonbury. Deserved a bigger stage/proper billing imo. (Edit: Actually, I think he DID have a lyric book on a...

Remember BBC 'only' record at five stages, and not every act allows it. They roll out videos after they've been packaged, which seems to take a bit of time. Don't miss the TV highlights section. One video includes Royal Blood, Warpaint, Young Fathers etc...

Contains swearing Contains swearing VERY sweary New to these guys. Very funny (unless you're Tory, I guess)...

She got lot loads of abuse/sexist commets online. Has asked BBC to scrap any footage, and says she'll quit. Not good. Also: this flag.

In related news (kinda)... ] Comments are amusing. Wok 'n' roll star etc etc.

He's a ridiculous talent. Described his friend Brian Eno as his mentor. Eno described Fred as his!

He. The tattoed guy just helps with live performances. Would have made a MUCH better headliner than AM. Massive with the kids. Playing four nights at Ally Pally later in the year. This is well worth a watch: And this short clip. TALENT, right here.

Panned in The Guardian. Given 3/5, but reads lower. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jun/24/arctic-monkeys-at-glastonbury-review-pyramid-headline Not a great advert for guitar/rock music, when it's struggling to be relevant.

She’ll still be bigging them up. “WOW! What a set!!!” Etc etc

£150/hr, though? (Camp Bestival price)

Ok, but it doesn't have yoga, hot tubs, ruddy George Ezra (had to check, mind), Cinch sponsorship, poetry readings...

Think I read somewhere that the waiver actually listed everything which could go wrong! Guess we'll hear a lot more about that...

Don't think anyone would accuse Leeds/Reading of being middle-class, but they're blatantly outliers in the festival world.

Funny line from https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/festivals-and-events/how-the-middle-class-ruined-music-festivals/ As one Reddit thread put it more poetically: “It’s so middle class these days the welfare tent is run by BUPA!” (Fact check: it’s not, not yet at least...)

Don't think the US Navy is in the speculation game. Wanted evidence. Took a fair time for the ROVs to get to the scene, but apparently they went straight to the correct location. Seems a few people knew what happened, but opted to stay quiet...
