Been lucky enough to get tickets for 2007, 2009, 2010 and 2013.

2007 was very wet but generally the weather has always been decent.

Highlights include performances from Arcade Fire, Prodigy, Muse, Rolling Stones, Lady Gaga, Stevie Wonder and of course Bruce Forsyth.

That's an amazing bunch of bands but now I am wondering what Brucie's performance was like.

Brucie was fantastic. Played one of the smaller tents which was packed out. A proper all round entertainer; he sang, he danced, he told stories, told jokes.

Really wholesome experience and I'm glad I got to see him before his death.

That sounds great, a more intimate venue to see an old school entertainer at work.
