I was at this gig. Just found this video and memories came flooding back. I was just a wee little one at 13, could hardly see, but absolutely loved Portishead's sound and still do to this day.
Trance-Hop..? I don't think it gives the band enough credit. Maybe trance-blues? Blues-hop? Just saying, cuz I think the music in Trance and Hip-hop is more often than done with machines, not real musicians.
@unklekarma not as good as 94, when they played in a small tent, poor Evan Dando was late and turned up ewhen they should have, 8 on saturday night, he lasted about 2 songs and got bottled off, enter Portishead and the place went wild for 2 hours, if anyone has video of this, please share it, I can't find it anywhere, it was truly mental...
Me too! It was my first festival and this set was an absolute highlight - i was on my own for this and the mud, the drizzle, a can of cider and a joint, and this wonderfully atmospheric music combined to beautiful effect! i have been trying to track down a video of 'over' from this set for years but to no avail so if somebody could point me in the right direction it would be very much appreciated - it has a very special place in my heart!
Hey, me too. I was stood towards the back, had been there for ages as the band were running late and some kind lady offered to share her umbrella with me! Bloody brilliant performance!!

How in the world does this not have 478 billion views by now? This should be made the YouTube homepage until everyone's heard it at least once.

I think you're wrong there. While he did do an amazing cover, I'm pretty sure it's originally Portishead.
