Might be an idea when FFS are on tonight to check Sky Channels 981 to 983 which are designated Red Button channels. If they were on any of these, we'd be able to record it on Sky+. Let's hope so!

Good idea! I think you can record from freeview as well.

The John Peel Stage webcam here should have the full show:

... but it would of course be better if the full show can be found via red button ... anyone had any luck?

Wow. I do believe tonight was why the internet was invented. Tomorrow night will be incredible.

Wow! That was incredible! I don't think that could've gone better. The crowd were loving it. I could see people at the front singing along to "Piss Off". The band look like they are having a great time too. I am full of admiration. I wish I was going to the Troxy. I haven't seen the Paris concert online yet, but I think tonight's performance came across so much better than on Later with Jools Holland. I loved the way "...My Way" segued into "Call Girl" with the wah wah guitar. "Call Girl" sounded rather plodding on Later, but it turns out to be a great dance song! When Russell launched into his falsetto bit in "Collaborations...", I was in such awe that I had to draw breath! The crowd were bouncing along to "Take Me Out" but seemed more reluctant to dance along to "...My Way" and "The No. 1 Song in Heaven". I loved the moment when Ron mouthed "Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat" with his eyes closed but looking skyward. Terrific show. I hope the FFS album chart position improves after tonight's show.

Later on the Red Button channel they showed 30 minutes of FFS, but that is still less than half of the show.

I was able to record the 3 BBC2 "highlights" but unable to record the live-stream from the BBC website (that collaboration didn't work, please try later). If anyone has the whole show, please (please, please!!) make it available for other hungry fans! Have commented on FFS Facebook that the link didn't work and therefor we recommend them to do "Beaver O Lindy" next thursday in Amsterdam for compensation :-)

The BBC streams don't function outside the UK, annoyingly. Same with BBC iplayer and so on.

But hey, always worth a try for Beaver O Lindy ;-)

Yeah I thought it was a stunning show - and they clearly did too, because at one point they spontaneously announce they are adding an extra song in to the set (SMFM)
Twitter reaction also seemed very positive, with the general tone being that they were one of the Glasto highlights. It was full of energy, fun, had a superb light show and with a good depth to the sound of the band, which is getting better, tighter and rockier with every performance. It's where Ron & Russell criminally haven't, but should have been many times before; and watching their obvious joy at being there at the centre of one of the great musical festivals was a delight to behold

I watched it all on BBC i-player live and now am re-watching the whole thing as the full 70 minute set is available; for UK residents at least. However I don't think the Beeb allow it to be shared?
At any rate I'm not up to saving and sharing!

FFS on the John Peel Stage at Glastonbury on 28th June 2015
Quote:
A heady collaboration, taking the arch haughtiness of Sparks and giving it some strut and groove by Franz Ferdinand.
Everyone involved is having a whale of a time and so will you. 70 minutes. Available for 28 days.

I’m outside the UK – Can I use BBC iPlayer?
Can I watch downloaded BBC iPlayer programmes outside the UK?
