Not many good reasons to go to Glastonbury, but this was probably one of them.

Here's where the drums come in.

[DOGxDAYxSONxRISE]

Traditional as in...bluegrass type of music? cuz MOST of those styles don't have drummers...BUT you make a good point and I never once said you dont need a drummer, I was just commenting on there position relative to the audience. Fin.

[DOGxDAYxSONxRISE]

Jesus Christ thats a TALL crash cymbal

[JJ62]

No, he's a really short drummer

[DOGxDAYxSONxRISE]

They all are, thats why drummers never deserve the front of the stage.

[oryandymackie95]

You try assembling a traditional band without a drummer...see how far you get.

Park 2008 :)

[sparksrule]

The Park stage is nice. Saw John Cale there. Shame it was at the completely other end of the festival from where we were based!

[Ceolteor]

Better crowd at Oxegen

[oirer]

video rekindles some fond memories, plus we saw martha wainwright on the edge of the stage

[donaghk]

agreed

[youngknivesrule]

really bummed that they couldn't play a longer set - what they DID play was absolutely awesome though!

[delbongo]

I missed this because I had to see Jay-Z :(

[smnplmr]

My chum is the one with the glowstick, flapping her arms about on my shoulders! Think she was having a cake moment...

[Dela857]

LMAO, tell her thank you from me, she makes me laugh everytime I watch this. We were all enjoying it THAT much, just lacked the cake.

[smnplmr]

Will do! ;0)

[danieljamesmead]

@smnplmr She makes me smile uncontrollably

[Ubercool29]

I was at the front for this and I successfully started a fuck css chant after their show cos I wanted em to continue was awsome while it lasted though

[bethan418]

definitely, the fact they had to finish early made it even more special.

[olliemk1]

Best performance of any single song during the whole of Glastonbury. Amazing!

[mervpeplerisgod]

cheers for putting this up,all i've got was a crap photo on me mobile.brings back great memories,definitely best band i saw at glastonbury.

[Dela857]

Was an amazing set wasn't it, sorry for the shakey camera work, hard to dance and hold your arm up for 10 minutes!!

[collectstones]

i was there too, fucking awesome footage dude!.wish i was back there!

[jez119]

I was there man, can't believe they only did 5 songs.

too many god damn wires to set up!!

drummer was pissed off throughout

[officialdealornodeal]

This was by far the best set by any band at Glastonbury!!! Shame they were cut short. Thanks for the video
