I have for a few of Kae's sets. My favourite one is probably actually in the Rum Shack on Thursday night in 2014 I think just after Everybody Down was released. They were so overwhelmed by the recepti

Only sets I was physically in attendance for, right?

In alphabetical order:

Adele (Pyramid Stage, 2016)

Coldplay (Pyramid Stage, 2016)

Margo Price (Park Stage, 2017)

Radiohead (Pyramid Stage, 2017)

Run the Jewels (Pyramid Stage, 2017)

St. Paul and the Broken Bones (Other Stage, 2016)

The 1975 (Other Stage, 2016)

The National (Pyramid Stage, 2017)

The xx (Pyramid Stage, 2017)

Thundercat (West Holts Stage, 2017)

A special mention to Barry Gibb and Biffy Clyro, with the former just a delight and the latter - even on subpar form - still very much the equal of Ed Sheeran afterwards. (Seen Sheeran a few times, and his Glastonbury headline set remains the softest of the bunch.)

8. Neil 
9. Fogerty 07
10. The Rutles 
11. Primal Scream 05

Could basically cut and paste this list...but I didn't go to Primal Scream in '05, was over at Bright Eyes (who was great, if off his tits). I'd swap in Coldplay in 2011 instead (really showed U2 how to headline that stage...the projections on the pyramid were brilliant, at the time I couldn't believe that nobody thought of using the stage like that before!, though looking at how it was achieved, I can see why).

The Scream in '05 was unreal. Could swap that in for the Rutles if forced. But the Rutles>Paul in '04 was just perfect.

Good to hear Bright Eyes was off his rocker. Everyone was in '05. Hugely underrated year. 😄

I think the rain on Thursday night and subsequent state of the site afterwards got a lot of the headlines, but I had a blast. Might even be my favourite year! That or 2009.

In no particular order, mainly because it's been the 21st century for such a long time, I can't remember

Radiohead 2017

The xx 2017

Kae Tempest 2017

Battles 2008

John Grant 2016

Underworld 2016

Elbow 2014 *

Gorillaz 2010

Chas'n'Dave 2005 (I sh*t you not)

Confidence Man 2022

 

* Yes I know that it was essentially a  carbon copy of the superior set they played in 2011, but I wasn't there.

I'm sure I've forgotten loads that are better than some of these, but this is what springs to mind.
