NINE BLACK ALPS

There's no denying their set on the John Peel stage was popular - Steve Lamacq reports there were queues ten-deep trying to get in to see them; but what's not clear is if they were attracting the audience because of their position on the lips of the glastocenti, or if it was because they were playing in a tent.

We're not sure if it's a result of his recent brush with mumps, but the piece we've heard from the set has him sounding very, very husky indeed, like Rod Stewart or something.

In other Glasto news: Apparently, they've been having to officially deny that someone got hit by lightning this morning.
