Massive Attack at Bestival 2009.
This was the most terrible and disappointing concert I have ever attended.
I thought it strange when I first saw it earlier on that day - going against logic, the stage was actually on top of a hill - should be interesting looking up at a steep angled performance. Later on my worse fears were confirmed - the sound was absolutely awful and we couldn't hear a thing. I wasn't even sure they had started until I clocked Grant on the large screen. It got worse as time went on - more and more people started talking, shouting, surging forward and generally getting annoyed - we made it further forward, about half way between the mixing desk and the stage with not much improvement and it was very claustrophobic. We had to make a hasty retreat just before Teardop and then gave up totally shortly afterwards.
An inquest revealed that the PA was pointing upwards therefore the sound simply disappeared with the wind. This together with the bad stage position meant that the sound mixer man couldn't see Massive Attack let alone hear them properly.
I only discovered later that Horace wasn't even there - he was stuck in Jamaica!
HOWEVER we had a good weekend despite this and the following night Kraftwerk had a bit more luck (well there was no wind & the PA had been rehung) making them the highlight of the festival.
