What are they showing for the other 23 hours and 58 minutes?
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

I recorded it as I was otherwise engaged last night, I'll probably give it a watch later.

Don't bother Cheesey. If you do watch though, just fast forward to the end of Will's Killing Moon solo. He's added a nice liitle guitar effect at the end. That was the highlight, seriously.

I was there and they sounded exceptionally good to me (inc. Mac's voice!).....I would love to see it on tv but don't have Sky.....Camo netting was up and they played for one and a half hours..... longer than the headliners Foals...

The tent was packed with a mixture of young and old. I thought the youngsters were there for Foals who were on after but a lot of them were there to see Bunnymen because I heard them talking... and when the Bunnymen finished a lot of them left..... so nice to hear a lot of enthusiasm from the youth...... playing the festivals must be paying off with gaining new fans.
There was even crowd surfing....LOL

They did Crocs/HUH and one sad muppet lady kept shouting

play some old stuff oh please play some old stuff.... People Are Strange, Ocean Rain....
I wish they'd play some old stuff

LOL

The crowd reaction was great!

Stayed in The Word Arena all day, highlights for me were Bunnymen, I Am Kloot, Villagers, Foals and I have to say Adam Ant was great ~ what a showman, great for entertaining a festival crowd with his pyscho pirate act (or is it ;-) ) !!!

ps - Johnny Bramwell of I Am Kloot was side of stage during Bunymen set and he looked like he had just won the lottery, his face beaming as he drunk his Guinness and sang every word..... great to see one of my favourite singer songwriters enjoying the Bunnymen so much.

Sadly on TV his voice sounded pretty hoarse......

The crowd did look good and there was quite a lot of youngsters singing away....

Glad you enjoyed, Shaz...

That's a real shame because they were exceptionally good in the flesh (oooh errr)
