The BBC iplayer seems to have loads of these live sets in full.

they will vanish after 7 days though. http://www.bbc.co.uk/glastonbury has approx. 1 hour highlights for each act that last for 30 days (UK only obv)

Will have to grab 'em while I can..

Didn't bother to watch any of this, but did have a look at the line-up over the three days and quickly found that there would have been only about 3 or 4 bands I would have wanted to have seen, anyway. Pretty taken aback at how much the line-up doesn't reflect what I'm actually listening to in 2013 for the most part, even on the smaller stages.

Yeah, but even when it did, I'd spend more time on the 'comedy' stages and the other places than the main / 2nd main stage..

Actually, I was dismissive about Glastonbury this year as I am every year but the line-up looks pretty great to me. I don't know what the West Holts stage is but looks like I could've just hung out there every day and had a reasonable amount of fun.

It's a good field to hang out in, in general, not usually too packed and also surrounded with good food and drink places.

just watched the portishead set on my big tv.
f*ck.
not that much of a fan, but that was brilliant.
intense.
love love love the way beth turns her back while the band get into it, and just soaks up the noise.
thought i would get bored.
but no ... mesmerising to the extreme.
lucky you matt.
(mate at work also said they were his fave of the weekend ... hence the double nudge)

Will have to save a bunch of these to DVD before they go..

Mark G, Tuesday, 2 July 2013 19:42 (ten years ago) link

taking orders? :)

Algerian Goalkeeper, Tuesday, 2 July 2013 19:47 (ten years ago) link

Hmmmm. ()

I saw Portishead at the Tower Ballroom in Blackpool in '94. Place was full of idiots who wouldn't shut up. Final 20 minutes were glorious though.

Their headline set at the ATP they curated was probably the best gig I've seen. It SOUNDED incredible.

kraudive, Tuesday, 2 July 2013 21:15 (ten years ago) link

Not managed to find the full portishead set on BBC catchup or iplayer yet. So far my highlight is Bobby Womack. I love him anyway, but he was on fire.

Same here. Their first night at that was especially spine-tingling, I thought.

I went to Glastonbury in the early '90s when the crusties/ravers were climbing over the fence in their droves, but I don't remember it feeling particularly dangerous.

pretty intense Savages show in a third-full John Peel tent

I saw their Friday afternoon in the smaller William's Green tent and it was magnificent. Surprised they didn't get a better showing on Saturday.

Just watched Portishead now, brilliant. Beth seemed so nice at the end as well, really humble

Gouty_Ted, Wednesday, 3 July 2013 18:32 (ten years ago) link

yeah .. that was a real eye opener for me.
after the cold distance of the performance, the 'hope that was all right' outburst was totally unexpected.

Really nice page with all the links!

You have until 30th July to fill your boots before it's all gone.

(Well, the performances, I mean. I daresay the pics will be there forever)

Mark G, Friday, 5 July 2013 09:47 (ten years ago) link

sorry, that date is the 29th July at 01:51, certainly as far as the Portishead foorage is concerned.

Mark G, Friday, 5 July 2013 09:49 (ten years ago) link

rokia traoré! oh wait it's not actually on there :-(

Thanks Tracerhand, I found Portishead footage, which was amazing, and am about halfway through Savages now
