Who: Hot Chip.

Where and when: Other stage, Friday 8.45pm.

Dress code: A combination of top-to-toe red (Joe Goddard), Dr Strangelove sunglasses (Al Doyle) and a baseball cab modelled on the crown jewels (Alexis Taylor).

What happened: Hot Chip often take a couple of songs to whir into gear, such is the array of steel drums, vocoders and keyboards needed to recreate their sound. This time, just as everything clicks into place, the band opt to play Over and Over (their biggest hit) a sprightly three songs in. Unfortunately, this means that an ample number of fair-weather audience members decide to leave before the next song – a rapturous version of Hand Me Down Your Love – even kicks into place. It's their loss, because tonight's performance, though truncated, is one of the best Hot Chip have ever given. Clearly swept up in the moment, the band look as if they're having the time of their lives as they belt out We Have Love, I Feel Better and Ready for the Floor. Those who remain to see the set through obviously feel the same.

Who's watching: Not that many people. Thom Yorke's surprise appearance on the Park stage has left Hot Chip with a fairly modest-sized crowd.

High point: A gorgeous, perfectly executed Hand Me Down Your Love.

Low point: For a band with four solid albums under their belt, the set was too short

In a tweet: Masters of their genre (whatever that may be) with the capacity to make the crowd dance. Not just hands in the air, shuffling about – really dance.
