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.

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.

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

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.

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)

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

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