If you're claiming this then so am I (and completing the set!).

[Tranquility of Solitude]

Can I have the Quiz at West Holts to complete my set?

And just one act per letter - no show-offs (broke this rule myself 😛)

What's your criteria for choosing one? 

I'm tempted to just ignore you for the sake of it 😜

Because for many letters I struggled to think of even one, having a top three is just showing off.  Where I actually had two or three that I could think of, I tried to think about what would make me look cool - happy for someone else to set the rules on that one.  Work away on the ignore, if this doesn't blossom into a brilliant conversation I'll assume that's what's happened 😉

2011 Headlined The Glade on The Sunday.

2016 also The Glade cant remember details.

EDIT on looking at my Spotify playlists 2016 would have been Sunday sometime before Earth Wind And Fire headlined West Holts.

thanks, when they played the nme stage, it was at the height of their fame and the field was rammed. i can remember it went mental for 'step it up.'

Yeah, mine is the opposite, for most letters I'd struggle to choose one - although I do share the same problem as some with grey cells not remembering years of over indulgence.

That was one of the first I thought of, such a unique year 😊

Whichever act starts with X at this year's glasto is going to have a packed crowd of alphabet hunters

Hallucinogen. Was that Hallucinogen in dub many years ago. I still reminisce about it. If I get dementia then I hope that is one of the last memories that fades

Definitely not missing Queens of the stoneage this time - I've seen them a couple of times elsewhere but that doesn't count, 5 minutes will do...

[GlastoRob2957]

Disappointed in this, I think I have seen all but Q, X & Z elsewhere but not at Glasto. Also would have more in the bag if it wasn't for the pesky 'the' rule (Wombats, XX)

Fair play to all of you posting in here for remembering all these sets … so I expect anyone beginning with z to have a good turnout of efesters at the farm in June
