I saw them at Glastonbury and they are as dysfunctional and brilliant as I expected them to be. Anton stood to the side, tuning his guitar and prompting the other members, Joel stood at the front tapping his tambourine more or less in tune with the music. Inspired sounds and not to be missed if you ever get the chance.

The best band I saw at Glasto, and the biggest band ever that never was. An amazing band, Anton is a genius!

I saw them at this concert at Glastonbury 2008 and thought they were great. It was nice to see them play. They came off as relaxing, powerful and jokey and created a good atmosphere. Also good to see a lead singer address a crowd with confidence and not just skip from song to song.If anyone has a set list for this concert I would love to read it.Best band in the world, ever, but you might not realize it yet.

Paul from Leicester
Shambolically amazing. The set was well picked and performed perfectly. Anton was his crazy self which was half the fun to be honest. An absolute treat to have the opportunity to see them, I was blown away.
