The coverage on Rte2 leaves a lot to be desired, more shots of the presenters than actual music. BBC at Glasto it's not!

That's cos RTE won't pay to licence the music.

Being shown live at 11:30, with any luck it'll be the full set but I'm not holding my breath!

Highly unlikely RTE will pay for the whole performance.

RTE haven't a ****ing clue what the word "comedian" means.

If they saved on all these presenters and fancy studio they probably could have stretched for it :pac:

AH here I have to turn this poo off, even when they show Blur the sound will be rubbish from the what 4 or 5 songs shown since 9pm????

Guess theres no chance of them showing much of Manics or Interpol tomorrow.

You'll find that they play a few tunes from piss poor Irish acts that cost nothing but one or two songs from real bands and crap like those two idiot so called rappers on now.

Yeah seems to be the case so far, was hoping it was just for the start but looks to be the set for the night. Even though I wouldn't be a fan of his myself there's something seriously wrong with a festival show when you can hear Sam Smith live in the background, one of the bigger names on the lineup, while someone freestyles badly to fill up time!

Foals live on MTV now much more exciting.

RTE's coverage is absolutely unwatchable.

Why are RTE bothering to "cover" this when they've barely showed any music?

Sound seems pretty good to me. Be cool if they did country house.

That'll be an encore song I'd imagine along with The Universal.
