Similar to other threads but i had to make the point that Bon Ivers set on the other stage was absolutely beautiful.

When he played Wolves at the end i even shed a tear. Unbelievable.

Anyone else have that effect on you over the weekend?

oh yeah and down with flags and the thieving bastards that stole my coolbox. :(

Surprisingly, Blur! Never been a huge Blur fan but always had people telling me they are a must see. Pure entertainment!

Roots Manuva as well was the best I've ever seen him. Usually he seems a bit distant, but last night he seemed happy and was giving it his all.

Ray Davies - always a risky one in case he plays his solo material or is off form, but on the night he played a blinder, sitting outside the acoustic tent with a cider in my hand, looking over the site and the fireworks and stuff, whilst he played crowd pleasing kinks hit after hit.

In the bar afterwards, the whole bar errupted into a rendition of Lola! Great moment!

The Egg were even better than I expected.

Rolf, everyone says he's a legend, I wasn't 100% convinced, but now I am! Total entertainer.

2 Many DJs was a bit special, I have to say..

Lancashire Hotpots and Rolf were both great fun, and with only yards between then, greatly appreciated by my legs!

I also found a wicked mash-up spot about half way between Dance East and the ickle G Stage yesterday - Mr Scruff was on DE and MJ Cole then London Elektricity then High Contrast on G.. and based on which side of the walkway you stood you would hear one or the other, my brothers and I were just scooting back and forth depending on which was going through a better phase at the time (PS loved Scruff's animations!)

i thought friendly fires were amazing and the singer seemed to be overwhelmed by it all. enter shikari wer great even tho the set was cut short and we didnt get jonny sniper. was rather close to tears at doves when they played 10.03.

roots manuva, yeah yeah yeahs, the specials wer some of my other highlights and watching pharell williams flap about at the bottom of the pyramid as roadies dismantled stuff and oasis was booming out of the pa :(

Regina Spektor, she was absolutely amazing. Such a lovely, genuine person too. The crowd loved her and I still can't believe I've actually seen her, was at the front aswell! :(

Really wanted to see Bon Iver but ended up missing him somehow... :D

Pendulum sent my ten year old daughter dancing like a thing possessed, tony christie in the guardian lounge was slightly surreal but awsome, (I left with damaged vocal chords), klaxons in the sunshine on the park stage was great fun, (inspired idea to dress their roadies as wizard of oz characters.) and strawberry the clown in the kids field made me laugh til I cried....loved it all and will start the countdown to next year as soon as I've had a steam clean and I have a new pair of feet! :(
