Apart from Spinal Tap anyone has any memories about funny but not intentional moments?

Neil diamond and Bruce springsteen throughout their gigs relating to 'glaston'-'berry'

And who could forget Michael Stipes famous

'I see you, I hear you,  I feel you  I SMELL you!!!!

Steady on Michael- After three day's at Glaston-berry you won't be coming up roses either!!

I missed that one, and was front row to witness his empty, talentless time on stage, if it wasn't for Peter Kay I doubt very much if 90% who are aware of him would know him!

I think Lady GaGa may have said something stupid like that last year. Anyone?

I was at TITP when the fella out of Scissor Sisters commented favourably about the drummers he'd seen in a parade the day before. Orangemen apparently.

Didn't Black Eyed Peas open up with HELLOOOOOO LONDON!?

Also enjoyed the Subways becoming completely obscured by their own smoke machines, and stopping the gig for a while to wait for it to clear.

That was exceptionally hilarious, especially as Billy Lunn was acting like a complete egotistical arse all through the show.

I think Arcade Fire made a similar faux pas at TITP too... commented on how beautiful the march looked. Think it was just that they had no idea what it signifies... the crowd didnt say a lot about it lol

Didn't Lady Gaga thank 'London' last year?

[alemart]

Last year - The saxophone guy from Madness swinging above the stage upside down and not being able to upright himself was pretty funny!!
And slightly made up for the fact that their slot was completely flat and they looked as if they were just going through the motions.

When Phil from tThe twang was so excited to be playing Glastonbury that he forgot to sing!

He had to ask the band to start again and own up!

Not sure what year but Gwen Seffani climbing a speaker stack then getting stuck and getting her 10ft minder to lift her off. the only high point of my worst ever band at Galstonbury

[StoneCircle]

I had to have a little chuckle when Hugh Cornwell dedicated 'Golden Brown' to Michael Jackson at last years festival

MJ would not have approved!
