      This man saved my life last year with his songs. In particular "If Winter Ends". It hit the spot. Mega at Glastonbury - saw him up at the Park. Soooo beautiful - all of them - I suppose Re: Stacks is about the highest of the high. Can't play them in company yet because I get too emotional. Thank you!!

      this was the best performance of the whole festival, it was epic, i wasnt even there. i watched this at home, the look on justins face when he screamed at the end of the wolves at 27.42-47, makes me feel like crying, im lost for words when i keep watching that bit over and over again, its shows me that this guy is the real deal, i cant really describe how 27.44-47 makes me feel, he took over the whole crowd, they were waiting for the prodigy and were singing along to indie folk love songs, unbelievable, i hope bon iver come to BELFAST, NORTHERN IRELAND, one day, thanks bon iver for an amazing show...

      I saw this and wasn't impressed while I was there. It was probably because I hadn't slept properly for 4 days and that the Glade was banging out Psy Trance. On watching it again I've changed my mind. The guy is a genius and the album is one the best I've heard in years.

      Agreed about Wolves. Superb!!!!!

      he was immense - but the bcc, as usual, missed the best performance. by concentrating on the boss they missed a magical, haunting sweeping set up at the park - i pity people thet were not there to see it.
      thats not to deny how good this set was, but it pales next to the epic set the night before

      I agree with the realmackay, I love you BBC but you missed the best set at the Park the night before. I felt so lucky to have watched this, it was the highlight of my glastonbury. I absolutely love Bon Iver and it was such a magical experience to watch their set on Saturday night, just beautiful.

      I saw this set on the telly and loved it. I had Skinny Love stuck on the brain for days after. Really nice song and loved the gig. Let's hope that 2010 will be justas good as this year was!
