Anyone there/watching it? only seen a bit tonight but thought arcade fire were stunning. i've been to every festival since 2002 (bar 2008), and that was one of the best headling sets i've seen. maddest band around too (apart from british sea power that is). couldn't get a ticket this time but wish i was there despite the reported terrible storms.

metallica headline tomorrow - will be interesting. i've seen them many times and despite they being an excellent live band i'm not sure how well they will go down, but the (few) rock bands eavis has put on in the past have always gone down really well - queens of the stone age headlining the other stage in 2011 being the last one

I've always fancied it but my despise of the general public would drive me insane. Plus they never seem to get the weather right!

Fair to say they blew away the naysayers. As a big fan I've not seen them enjoy a gig so much for many years. Rolled out all the classics as would be expected, and performed brilliantly - but then their talent has never been in doubt. Fade to Black was outstanding, and the balls in the crowd was a nice party trick. Hetfield was on great form - they all were, though Lars needs to calm down at times.

Wondered how they'd address the ridiculous 'bear hunt' petition and did it in typical 'tallica style. Also laughed at the Metallica Glastonbury t-shirt bearing some of the more scathing quotes from media and social media when they were announced as headliners. A not-so-subtle 'f*ck you'.

Not been to Glastonbury for quite a few years now and not sure I'll bother again. Due to family connections we always had 'resident' passes which allowed us behind the scenes - not into the backstage area but most of the private tents and other areas. It also meant we didn't have to camp. Unfortunately our local contact has moved away and not sure I can be bothered with it all - though we'll probably take my daughter when she's old enough. :ROCKS:

I enjoyed Metallica last night and they went down very well indeed.

Loved Hetfields subtle dig at Bruce Dickinson during the set.

Didn't go, but even though Metallica aren't my thing, they looked like they enjoyed it, as did the crowd.

A lot of redbutton/iplayer catching up to do, but De La Soul were fantastic, liked the look of Metronomy and am hoping Elbow were good too. The bits of Arcade Fire I saw looked bonkers but good and Dolly was excellent fun. Disclosure were supposed to be excellent too

Metallica were superb as usual.
I thought they would have eased the middle-classes into their set with a few slower numbers but oh no - a double assault of "Creeping Death" followed by "For Whom the Bells Toll" and as soon as you heard the crowd chanting "die" "die" "die" you knew it was on!

AC/DC next year anyone ?

When do tickets for next year go on sale? Or can you register for tickets for next year?
