It's amazing how the biggest act everybody is talking about this year is a politician. Corbynmania is sweeping the country. The scenes at the silent disco last night were unreal. I can't wait to see his appearance on the Pyramid stage tomorrow.

Check out Sleaford Mods on the Park Stage in 20 minutes. More politics, swearing and all round rage!

I see Nigel Farage is not happy at the BBC's coverage of Corbyn's appearance.
Maybe someone could explain to him that Corbyn was actually part of the festival lineup. For a politician to be on the stage at a music festival would be worthy of reporting in itself, but given that his speech was very well received and his name was chanted regularly throughout the weekend, it would be disingenuous for the BBC to pretend Corbyn wasn't a major part of this year's fesitval. You could even argue they've downplayed it by not making his speech viewable on the iPlayer website.
Ironic for Farage to complain about coverage anyway. He's the former leader of a dying political party - why does he get so much coverage?

Quite enjoyed some of the coverage. I struggle to sit down and listen to a Radiohead record but I find them to be a compelling live act. The Foo's were pretty energetic and put on a good show as expected. And despite a nervy start Ed Sheeran rattled through his hits and whether you like him or not its quite impressive that him alone can engage such a large crowd like that. Royal Blood were excellent on the Friday, probably my stand out performance over the weekend.

Amazing, not a mention for Biffy Clyro.

Amazing, not a mention for Biffy Clyro. I loved their first three albums. Since Puzzle they've just got a bit middle-of-the-road for me. |

The crowd for Liam Gallagher was amazing, watched him from the side of the other stage and the place was rammed.
