glastonbury

has any one beeh watching the bbc coverage of glastonbury or lack of it when it came to neil youngs fantastic set .But only showing 4 tracks and missing out Hey Hey My My.
And how many times did Bruse Spingstein have to jump in the crown at one piont i thought he was going to ao buy a ticket

[Mr Pumpy]

Oh man, I was so looking forward to Neil Young, the mans a genius.
As you say, the coverage of young seemed a bit p1ss poor, i'm not sure how many songs he played but we didn't see em all thats for sure.


Ive had to watch most of it via the iplayer which has been pants.
Instead of showing individual acts, there's mostly been highlights of say day 1 or day 2, that kind of thing. Maybe its just not possible to show the individual sets, who knows???

[Mr Pumpy]

Did you catch The Prodigy......Awesome, what a set.

Never been to Glastonbury myself, but have been talking to my mate today who has just come back, and believe it or not he said Madness was one of the best bands.

been to glastonbury 4 times loved it one of the best was seeing Johnny Cash and going to the front for the Levellers but that was a long time ago and i dont think my body could take 4 days of drink and drugs any more
The next one will be the 40th glastonbury who would you like to see headline
mine would be Led Zepplin then i would come out of retirement

[Mr Pumpy]

The only time i'd go is if Brotherhood of Man reformed.... that'd be awesome, I can just imagine em singing "Save all your kisses" and doing that little dance on the Pyramid stage.

[firestorm]

i would think i ve been on drugs and booze for 4 days if i saw brotherhood of man on the Pyramid stage.mind you i have seen rolf harrirs on the Pyramid stage singing 2 little boys

The chemical brothers in 97 was top notch.. As were the seahorses... I spent most of my time in the dance tent which has evolved into a dance village now.. Also the backbeat beatles were very good..!! Glasto 97.. Good times but a bit muddy for my liking

[firestorm]

i saw radioheads famous performance but had to shut one eye because i was seeing double at the time.Not as bad as the first time i saw them they were supporting a band called Frank and Walters at crazy house in liverpool cant rember a thing god i loved the 80s

[opsmonkey]

If I remember correctly the prodigy were playing at the same time or was it the chem bros.. Anyway my mate went to see radiohead and I went the otherway.. Bit too southern and dark radiohead for me.. I didn't really get them or their vibe

[firestorm]

i rember whatching a band on the NME stage doing a number about little fluffy clouds they were good but cant rember who they were but they had lights strapped to there heads.Another good one was transglobal underground

[opsmonkey]

The Orb did fluffy clouds.. Also Orbital were really good and they had glasses with pen light torches taped to them... TGU are topo notches.. Ever heard any Sun Electic tracks..?? Real trippy man.. Good for a smoke... Er or so I have heard
