The set also featured brief cameos from singer Ian Watkins' mum and gran.
The Automaticwere also a big hit with the locals, with set which included the favourites 'Raoul', 'Golddigger', 'Monster' and set closer 'Recover'.
Other highlights included Atrium Stage headliners Paramore, local lads The Guns, and Gallows, who saw a massive crowd queue up to watch their set on the small Coca-Cola Stage.
Frank Carter and co, didn't disappoint, with 'Orchestra Of Wolves' and 'Will Someone Shoot That Fucking Snake' the undisputed highlights of the set.
