I'm not in the slightest a fan of hip-hop, but I must admit to watching Jay-Z's set on Saturday night and quite enjoyed it.
Watched some Kings of Leon as well and they were pretty ace. Saw a bit off The Enemy on BBCi, thought they were ok.
Might have to watch The Verve later on t'internet because I missed their set.

I sincerly hope Jay-Z's private jet crashes crossing the Atlantic. Admit it Noel, he put on a good performance and he even vaguely sang along to 'Wonderwall'  Jay Z wasn't particularly good.(IMHO). Most of the crowd were just intent on having a good time despite him being on stage & were only there to see what all the fuss was about. The Verve were awesome, best set of the festival by a mile & second only to Roger Walters a few years back. Amy Winehose was visibly falling apart. Subways were excellent as was Duffy who looked stunning. Wanted to see the Ting Tings, but couldn't get near it so only heard them. The best night for me tho' was Friday, when we just wandered about the site looking in on the smaller stages, meeting all types in all sorts of weird & wonderfull places & just taking in the wonderful vibe of the place. |

The Verve were good. Really enjoyed their set. New single is sounding very good as well  |

Watched bits and pieces on BBC, didn't see The Verve but they were great in Luxembourg last week, my favourite set was probably Elbow from what I saw.

What's the big deal about Jay-Z playing? Didn't 50cent play at glastonbury a few years ago? I'm sure I didn't go to listen to him.

50 cent was at Reading no?
Jay-Z opened his set with Wonderwall. Nice touch.
