the latest from Glastonbury Festival, day 3!

eFestivals' Glastonbury Festival 2010 Blog

Saturday 26th June 2010


The latest from the eFestivals' Glastonbury Festival blog over five days at Pilton.

It's a scorcher! The main stages sparked into life in the sunshine and Rolf Harris started the party. Many of the campsites began to fill up and the day's entertainment was topped off with Gorillaz and a host of guests including Snoop Dogg, Bobby Womack, and Lou Reed amongst others. Unfortunately Mos Def had to cancel his appearance at West Holts and Femi Kuti was moved back to headline the flag filled stage.

Whilst on the second stage Flaming Lips delivered a lively set and Sasha got the crowd's seems in the air in Glade.

Earlier Snoop Dogg had drawn the biggest crowd of the day, and The Stranglers played the Other Stage for the first time, and said they rather liked it. Frank Turner, Mumford & Sons, and Florence & The Machine also stool to various stages, with Thom Yorke revealed as the surprise guest in The Park (a well kept secret).

The late night music venues proved a popular choice with crowds wandering around agog. Shame the DJ's played such poor tunes, it was the Village Disco who provided the most audible soundtrack for those in the campervan fields. However it was the other entertainment from a singing Bono puppet in an Irish bar, to blue mermaids, to Bez "DJing" and a wealth of other delights. Elsewhere the greenfields were a more chilled affair of soft glowing lights, more acoustic flavoured tunes, and chai.

Today will be another scorcher, and water is the order of the day along with resting my aching feet as much as possible.

We'll be back next week with loads of reviews and pictures of the festival online for you to enjoy.
