Goddamn. Guys a trooper. This is gonna be insane.

[kalifire]

I can only respect that. As a huge fan, I'd have been fine with them cancelling, given the circumstances. For them to play is absolutely fucking massive.

I fucking love all of you! Best news 

[kalifire]

Woke up extremely psyched for this set. 

Anyone else down the front for this one? Being around those who enjoy it will be essential.

Bladder allowing im gonna be up front from RTJ onwards tonight, but especially for RTJ. Curious to see how the Pyramid crowd outside of the front circle takes them, but also just want to be going ape with other like minded fans. Everything's adding up to this being really special. 

[kalifire]

I'm thinking of suffering Craig David for a good position. I would imagine crowds won't thin much for Corbyn, after which RTJ are on 5 minutes later. I don't want to spend the first 15 minutes trying to position myself. 

[superhands91]

So if we needed any more of a confirmation. Killer Mike just tweeted "I'm  doing the show today for you girl"

You have to admire this person, not just as a musician but as a human being.

Looking forward to this one!

Awh jeez. What a guy. Can't wait.

[st dan]

Hope the crowd is bouncing for it and gives them the set they deserve. 

[Slugworth]

This is going to be emotional and  expecting them to deliver an iconic Glastonbury moment 

[kalifire]

Anyone in the pit, feel free to tap me on the shoulder and share the love. I'll be the one shamelessly wearing a left shark Katy Perry t-shirt.

One of my top ten live acts last year, he was unexpectedly brilliant.

Mental

[kalifire]

Hard to tell how this went down overall but it was insane in the pit. Some hairy moments with that new 'form a circle then throw yourself around in it' thing the kids are doing now, but full of fans giving maximum love. The fellas looked genuinely touched as well.

Was fucking amazing, this. Hadn't read any of the stuff about Mike's mum beforehand and thought he was joking about her dying when he said she's somewhere laughing.

Watching it back now and it looks amazing still. Peeped @Mash011 bouncing around during Lie, Cheat, Steal on iPlayer.

Eagle eyes here. They filmed me during Lie Cheat Steal last time, too. Probs cos that song is my life.

[Winslow Leach]

It was really something special wasn't it?

Your hardly ever see a Pyramid crowd kicking off like that, the scarfs were a great touch and I got genuinely really quite emotional over Mike dedicating the set to the Grenfell victims.

Also peeped you through the crowd at Angel Olsen. Lots of Mash in my weekend this year.

[Badlands]

Just watched it back and was as good as I remembered. Glad I went to the front as the atmosphere was bouncing. Had no idea about his Ma until now.

Jaime's 'poetry spot', the only duff thing about the set.

[Wilfko]

Hi guys,

Was in the pit for the whole thing with some buds. I was wearing a Lions T shirt (Rugby). The Moshing was absolutely fucking mad and I had a blast. I was also wearing severely broken sunnies by the end. Everyone was great inbetween the chaos though, hugs and laughter all around.

Any footage of the Moshing on IPlayer? Trying to spot me and my buds.

[Amy Lawn]

Amazing, didn't know about his mum either, absolutely incredible. Loved it.

[Stokesy10]

Well impressed. Got the crowd going, never seen them before and knew one or two tracks. Seem like really sound and humble guys too. Great show!

[When Jokers Attack]

Loved it.  Completely forgot to get an extra scarf for my mate who is a fan.

[Guy Incognito]

Bumping this thread in order to share this banger. Feel like Killer Mike overshadows El most of the time on RTJ albums, with El's main focus being production of course. This vid is a good reminder of how sick El-P is, possibly my favourite ever verse of his. All the verses on this are of the highest quality, especially Kool A.D and Depsot's (wheres the album!?!?) and El-P ofc.
