Unfortunatley i missed it but heard great reviews he even played overtime,Eavis said it was well worth it and will foot the fine.
Blur where on BBC2 earlier and are coming up again soon,they really are on form and the set so far is fantastic,i'm in heaven.

Blur are rocking
Definitely a band of my generation, making me feel nostalgic.
Surprised they played Country House, even though it was their biggest ever single, they kept it off their latest greatest hits CD as I think it reminds Albarn of a the Oasis V Blur feud and the silliness that ensued.

<<I don't understand what you mean by "he was steaming." Can you explain?>> literally that. You could see steam rising from his body when he was playing. Very noticable through the backlight.

He was sweating, and the sweat was evaporating from him (as sweat is supposed to, to cool you down). Due to the spotlights behind him, it looked like mist, as though he was literally steaming.
I think there's a good chance Bowie will play Glastonbury next year. It was the scene of his popular comeback 9 years ago & Michael Eavis said he had some special artists already lined up for next years special anniversary Glastonbury.
