Sunday at Glastonbury review: Maccabees, Rodrigo and The Prodigy close it in style
Over on the Pyramid Stage, The Libertines played a somewhat low-key set that meandered in their usual ramshackle way but failed to ignite. The crowd were fully bought in as they played tunes from debut Up The Bracket, but What Katie Did was dragged out to the point of tedium. It took a funny impression of Rod Stewart by Pete Doherty to bring things back up - he'd spotted a surfeit of leopard print and sequins on the front and brought out a comedy Scottish accent to deliver his take on Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? By the end, with a closing duo of Can't Stand Me Now and Don't Look Back Into The Sun, the slot was won, but Rod was in the air.
