London: The Arctic Monkeys closed the Glastonbury Festival`s first night on Friday with a hit-packed headlining set.
The band, which played to more than 90,000 fans, opened with a brand new song, ` Do I Wanna Know `, and pleased the crowd with hits like `I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor`, the BBS reported. The band members made a low-key entrance on the Pyramid Stage, and keeping with the slow-burning groove of their new single, they set opened with subdued lighting and darkened video screens, before crashing straight into the faster Brianstorm- a single from 2007. The show also included performances by the likes of Dizzee Rascal, Jake Bugg and Rita Ora. ANI
