As said last night - rocked my rocks last night watching Willie Nelson's EMG loaded Epiphone playing bass player surrounded by mouth organs, dead Martins and a steinway.

Also spotted Corinne Bailey Rae's guy with an Ibanez blazer (noted before on here.)

Finally - was Simenon playing his legendary P-bass?

Good start. Bring on the Muse ensemble tonight....and Scissors Sisters.....and on Sunday, the daddy of them all:

After reading the Mark Saunders interview in BGM last month (or maybe the month before), I wanted to catch part of Florence and the Machines set. Noticed he was playing a Sadowsky and not a Lakland, which he had been photographed for the magazine with. I'm not too in to her voice but quite enjoyed what I saw.

I noticed Robert 'Bubby' Lewis playing for Snoop. I thought the sound quality for his performance and most Pyramid Stage performances was pretty bad, but he was playing some wicked lines.

Kenny Higgins was pumping out some summer love for Corrine Bailey Rae as well!

As much as I like Alleva, the headstocks are a bit 'meh'.

Just leave one of these around to make the Alleva headstock look nice(er)

Not a fan of the Status basses he is using.

The headless one looks more like a guitar it's that small.

No offence chaps but that is far too 80s for my liking!
