The sun’s gone down but the heat’s still incredible – and the crowds are heaving – as Gorillaz close the first night on the Pyramid Stage. Damon Albarn has assembled an amazing all-star line-up with the likes of Lou Reed, Mark E Smith, Shaun Ryder and Snoop Dogg coming on to the stage to join him alongside Clash legends Mick Jones and Paul Simonon in nautical attire.
It’s a very different show to last year’s barn-storming Blur reunion – and some in the crowd look as if they don’t know what to make of it – but festival-goer Rob says: “Damon Albarn is a genius – this generation’s Bob Dylan. Some of the stuff he does is amazing. He’s really leading the way”
