I'm trying to remember the 08 set, but all I can remember is the incredible crush as people packed in for Rage, so I think because of that I enjoyed the 10 set more. Plus didn't they open with Feel Good Hit of the Summer and Lost Art of Keeping a Secret? That was pretty good. Neither of them were the best I've seen Queens though.

Josh said in 2008 they played a pretty chilled set (for them) as they knew everyone wanted to go wild for RATM and they didn't wanna burn everyone out. Cool gesture really. Plus it meant we got to see this amazing altered version of Go With The Flow!

Radiohead in 2009 just edges out Nine Inch Nails in 2007 - and I think that's solely because I knew all of Radiohead's set but only knew half of NIN's.

Highly honourable mentions go to Brand New in 2007 in the R1 Tent, Arcade Fire in 2005 in the R1 Tent (and on the main in 2007 and 2010), Metallica in 2008, Rage Against the Machine in 2008, and Muse in the rain closing the main stage at Leeds in 2006.

Weezer in 2010 was everything that a festival setlist should be.

MCR in 2011 was great because it was surprisingly good, I was somehow right at the barrier at Leeds without meaning to be and just loved all the effort they put into their stage. I saw them at TITP that year too and on tour and they were nothing like that. It was awesome to see a band sink their money into a performance to make it memorable.

The Hives at 2012 was ridiculous. It was my first time seeing them and I'm now just angry at myself for not going to see them on all the previous tours. Saw them at Glasgow a few months later and they were just as good.

Kasabian in 2012 was great too. Again, didn't expect a lot, they were my least favourite headliner but they just put on a really good show.

Not got a lot of festivals to choose from but those were my personal highlights.

I tell you a great one people haven't mentioned!

Ash following enter shikari 2007. If, like me, you already couldn't stand KOL in those days or razor light, then it was a great double booking which seemed to cater for alot of us rock folk! Ash starting with lose control was amazing!
