I was there that night. And the performance was electric. Best headlining act at glasto by far. The Crowd loved it.

[@DevilFiddler]

One of the greatest Glastonbury performances ever! Legends!!!

[@larsreus1439]

Saw them performing in Amsterdam last thuesday. Playing a crowd of 500. Still giving everything. What a band.

[@iainkaleda8141]

I fucking love this video. There's a moment in the first chorus when the lights go on the crowd and I think it's the first time the band sees how insanely huge the mass of people is. You can hear their whole performance change after this song due to the lift they got from it. Amazing moment in one of the best Glastonbury headlining sets ever.

[@Kapricorn1]

Saw them live twice in the space of 3 years - first time amazing (as expected), second time they were headlining a festival and they played an acoustic set - talk about misjudgement - went down dysentery on the international space station. Always great to see Garth on keyboards though.

Wow, this brings back memories! This was the first Levellers gig that I was allowed to go to by myself (had always gone with my parents before then, and still had to meet up with them afterwards!)I was down at the front and I just remember the excitement of being there and the noise of the crowd and it being one of the best Levellers gigs I have ever been to! I have seen them about 100 times since and I will be there tomorrow night too!!

[@ozwaldm]

17 years it's been since I was front and centre for this song and even after all that time the memory is still as bright as it always was. We weren't singing a chorus to a great song that night we were chanting the battle cry of a generation. I look around now and I see a world not too different to how it was back then. Maybe we lost our dream to cynicism, maybe it's too late for us to escape the trap we made for ourselves. Don't waste your dream young ones, push the world until it gives.

my dad bought me an album when i was six, i think it was levelling the land, it was awsome and since then i kept listening to alternative music, i kinda left this band behind, never realizing that they would perform this good at a concert, best i've seen so far... now, 13 years later, i randomly picked it up again and sure im going to camp the internet untill i find out if they are going to perform somewhere near now, awsome band, LIVE PERFORMANCE SOUNDS LIKE A BONUS VERSION OF THE ORIGIONAL!!

I seem to recall too that this was before the bigger fences. A whole ton of people got in and I think the largest crowd ever for Glastonbury. All anyone was talking about in the lead up to it was The Levellers. That crowd size was so large, never saw one like it at Glastonbury before or since.
