It was an absolutely brilliant performance - i was talking with all my friends today about how good it was.
I thought the setlist was nice and solid - great to see Crawl and Manhattan in it, that means they'll almost definably play them at Oxegen too!
Caleb's little talks were cool. He's a man of few words on stage, but when he does talk, it's always something you'll remember.
BBC coverage was shite - the option should have been to switch to other performances using the red button, and the main thing should just have been the KOL set the entire way through. Still - a hell of a lot better then no coverage!

I live in the US... which BBC would they have aired it on in the states, if at all? I only get BBC World and BBC America.

I defy anyone who's along time KOL fan not to have been probably as excited as the band were about last night and i also defy anyone who's along time fan not to felt very strong emotions-even just happiness-i was practically shaking with happiness and then got a little teary in Knocked Up and Milk- also out of sheer happiness and being very proud. Woo hoo KOL!

Woo hoo KOL! Major Word! and Karma I was over here in Los Angeles and I've been really excited for and proud of the band since hearing the news that they would be headlining a whole slew of festivals in Europe. They are bona fide rockstars! They're such a hardworking band and write great songs. 4 albums within 6 years and countless tours they are amazing.

It looks like Caleb utterly sang his heart out. And it looks like they all played their hearts out. They are the best band in the world. I just admire them for being humble in a way and really having great attitudes and wanting to do their best to please the fans that are there for them. What great guys!

I'm so proud of them! I think they really deserved it, and although the bbc were utter rubbish and showed them in the background whilst they talked over them (what was all that about anyway?! do you want to tease us anymore?!?!), they portrayed them well. If i hadn't been a fan then they would have converted me just from that performance alone. I couldn't help but cry and dance and sing along haha. Well done boys, we love you

Maaan, are you kidding me? Look at that setlist compared to what the BBC showed! God. Knocked Up, and Manhattan were the ones I wanted to see. Argh. But yeah, I agree, they did really well. I actually thought Caleb and maybe Jared seemed nervous, at first, but they were amazing anyway

Hey guys, I was at Glastonbury - I went purely to see our boys and holy crap they didn't disappoint! It was the most incredible gig I've ever been to, I was like, third from front, just off centre and it was INCREDIBLE!!! The BBC are shite - I've just watched the coverage on the BBC website and it says "Watch their set in full".......um, that's not even half the set they've got on there! Kings played for like 90 minutes and they've got just over 30 minutes up! Lame as hell. I did manage to spot myself very briefly in the crowd though! Oh I can't even describe how amazing it was, worth every penny of £165! I didn't manage to get any good pics coz it was so rammed and they just came out as big blurs, but I did get a couple of Nacho setting up... Sorry, they're really blurry and rubbish, but I was getting pushed all over the place! OH! AND! Here's me kissing one of Nathan's drumsticks!... Sadly I didn't get to keep it - a guy near me got it and let me hold it and he took my picture with it! Hahaha I think he thought I was totally insane! I wish I'd just legged it with it now BEST NIGHT EVER! XXXXXXXXXXXX

Oh wow, you were actually there. Can you tell us what it was like seeing them perform live to that many people? How long did you have to stand at the front for until they came on? What were the crowd like? Was everyone going mental for them? Was everyone singing every word? How did you feel?
Sorry for all the questions, its just we were all so excited when watching it on TV and it would be great to hear what it was like from someone who experienced it live.
