Great to see orbital rock the crowd at glastonbury last night. anybody manage to see it? the tv coverage was really poor over here. especially after they have made so much effort at glasto for the last 10 years. 2 opening tracks and one perfect sunrise to finish. chime for the finale was just awesome, very emotional for them.

got my copy of 'one perfect sunrise' through today. stereo 8 mix is definately the way i would want to end it all. :D

Apparently some of their Glasto set is being repeated on the Steve Lemaq show tonight on radio 1 [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1[/url] at 20:00BST then it'll be on the Listen again player from tomorrow. Yeah deffo sad to see the end of them, some of the live shows they did were pretty amazing, cutting up the tracks and adding some killer samples such as Bon Jovi and Belinda Carlisle :twisted:
