Completely agree 

I think it ruins the vibe a bit, just a big empty field. It always looked cool with the tents, fires etc.

Coldplay are the only act pulling a huge crowd I suspect.

Dua will have a crowd tonight.

It will be shame if/when LCD will get a small crowd at the Pyramid

Noticed none of the full sets are on iPlayer yet. When do these normally come on? Is it next morning or something? 

Seems theyre slow to upload them this time. Probably start coming up when Dua begins and the main stages wind down. There will also be the Friday night broadcast which has a bunch of highlights too. Wonder if theyre just trying some different things this year and very much dropping the ball

It was obvious 2 years ago but they seemingly do not learn. And when TLC was on the same slot it was rammed to the gills. Dont know why they didnt wanna give Sugababes some respect and schedule them accordingly. This is festival disasterclass of the finest

Sorry yeah two years ago not last year. Last year it looked like they’d learnt the lesson only to go straight backwards again now. 

 

Can understand them wanting to give PJ Harvey, Paul Heaton etc the slots they ‘deserve’ but it looks hella crap on TV even for those of us not lucky enough to attend Sugababes Day.

Maybe an early morning Pyramid slot like Rick got last year would have worked

not even that, just put her on The Park. Its whole reason for existence is housing acts like her. 🤷

I quite enjoy the eclectic line ups on the main stages.

 

One year they had Nick Cave followed by Mumford and Sons, I think.

 

The horrified looks on the faces of those who had come to see the Mumfords, only to be subject to Mr Cave was hilarious.

 

And Lionel Richie and Patti Smith!

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Perfectly healthy sized crowd for LCD in fairness. Now let’s just hope most of it has heard of them and aren’t just there for Dua.

Sorry, my reply was supposed to be to superfans message about sugarbabes, replied to your post by mistake, PJ definitely deserves better than an early morning pyramid slot, sugarbabes would have worked better there than on west holts

It's a shame some of the smaller stages aren't on iplayer, Would love to see Sprints who are on now at Left Field.

Big Special a couple of slots before them were one I'd loved to have seen as well

I could have quite happily watched Avalon for most of the day today

LCD sound ace, and a surprisingly cracking crowd by the looks of it so far....

Does your kid really need a bath? Pretend you're at the festival.

[dingbat2]

Can't beat a kraftwerk sample too...

Think we’re lucky to get as many stages as we do tbh. The viewing figures for West Holts and The Park must be tiny.

Yeah very pleasantly surprising. Might have helped that Dua’s album flopped but the majority of this crowd look to be into it.

Very good point.

[dingbat2]

Lcd smasing it so far

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Sounds sooooooo good.

 Crowd is stacked for LCD

[lemons]

Saw LCD on Wed but tearing up at Oh Baby opener

Legit don’t know how that has happened. Could have headlined instead of SZA on this evidence 👀 

[cdm22]

There is very little else on to be fair  (apart from Sprints) Gok Wan at the Glade anyone? Anyone? Hmm 😀

[Handshake]

Just catching up on Confidence Man, what a party. Love that they had a massive crowd that looked right up for it!
