Of course she does. But she uses a backing track which I thought was what people were against?

Well she has no choice. What I object to is bands using a backing track whilst pretending to play/sing making it look like they are playing live when they aren't.

Fair enough.Other people definitely had a go at her last year which she was really upset by.

Great set by Keane this afternoon

Then again Sleaford Mods is literally one bloke pressing play on a computer placed on a beer crate with another bloke shouting.

Slight edit

Just found the Paul Heaton performance on iPlayer. Wow. Rhianne Downey’s vocals made the brilliant Song For Whoever even better. And the reunion with FBS .

It’s interesting how sets improve as the singer’s vocals loosen up or the sound people get it right. First couple of songs PH was drowned out by imho an overly dominant keyboard volume.

It was special wasn’t it?! I got all emotional when Norman came on!

I properly love Paul Heaton’s voice, it’s beautiful. Him, Morrisey and Ian Curtis untouchable as singers for me.

For anyone interested, Kasabian are currently playing the 'TBC' slot on the Woodsies Stage

His voice is still excellent IMO

Dancing girls seem to be in fashion this year... maybe I'll miss the Germany pre match chat...

I can still remember being there in 1997 and seeing (in my view) probably one of the best Glasto moments being in the front row for Radiohead's legendary performance. That was a night that few have ever got close to replicating.

Just put on briefly before heading out. Cindi Lauper sounds awful

Yeah she wasn't great. Over,70 now I think, seems a lovely lady, but didn't sound great

I can't help myself whenever there's an opportunity to watch a Radiohead gig. I've seen the 1997 set twice already in the last week. Once we'd done Confidence Man, LCD Soundsystem and PJ Harvey on the Beeb yesterday, we had a scout around for anything else and it was all a bit meh, so we had to watch 1997 again, which is Michael Eavis' favourite ever set in the 53 years that Glasto has been going.

Great set from Barry Can't Swim just caught up with, well worth a watch!!

Couldn't find anything decent on iPLayer from this year so am watching this again now.

As much as your edit is both amusing and factually correct, I like them

Shame the lead shouter doesn’t share your sense of humour, I couldn’t imagine him making me laugh

I respect people’s opinions and we’ve all got different tastes but yes, fuckin ell (and I’ve been drinking) on one hand you get old codgers like Elton John and shit like Coldplay…and then you get Radiohead.
