I caught the last 40 mins after legging it from the Park. I enjoyed it overall - the sound issues from the first bit had been ironed out at this point and she sounded really good - but it was also clear that it was most certainly a miss from the festival's pov and also from the artist too. It didn't feel like a headline festival set in any way. The staging was pretty incredible but did contribute to it feeling more like an arena show grafted onto a festival rather than something tailored for the occasion. I think she was pretty nervous and there wasn't really a great deal to bring the casual audience onside, not much interaction or anything special for Glasto. It's definitely possible to make melancholy work on a big festival stage - see London Grammar for example - but this wasn't really done here. I think more media in the run up to the festival could definitely have helped - the fact that there were the BBC interviews with Dua, Coldplay and Simz but not SZA for example set the tone - but instead it felt like the festival knew they'd made a mistake and let it sink.

Big danger that the pyramid loses all of its artistic integrity by doing things like this just to satisfy punters with little musical taste. The Pyramid schedules enough legacy acts as it is.
