The Glade Stage

[Rufus Gwertigan]

I was just having a peek at the line up for the Glade on the Sunday, I am actually impressed with s Daft Monkeys, Back to the Planet, Eatstatic and Gong. That would be a nice line up for some of the festivals I go to, never mind just on stage.

If anyone wants to find me, I will be there all day. I'm the one eating cheese and sat in a chair.

But seriuosly, there are some little gems there over the weekend

I caught pretty much all of Steve Hillage last year as well, may look out for ya lol

I'm a little dissapointed (Only a little though) that Banco De Gaia is only playing once.

I managed to catch him last year at Croissant Neuf & he was outsanding ...was hoping for a late sunday gig again this year

that wasn't "Steve Hillage" last year, that was System 7.

This year is the real deal, rarely seen for the last 20+ years. Be there or be square with the other aging hippies.

Couldnt think of a better end to the festival than Steve Hillage then Gong.

Is your cheese Camembert Rufus?

Camembert on a Sunday??? Are you mad.

I am hoping to get a chair, and a little picnic, and I am going to set up residence there for the Sunday

No Squarepusher this year One of my highlights last year ...

Sorry it was Steve Hillages Mirror sound system & then System 7 played as well, i was at both gig's

neither of which is "Steve Hillage".

Yes, I know System 7 and Mirror System are Steve Hillage, but before System 7 and Mirror System he was "Steve Hillage" - and it's "Steve Hillage" that's playing this year. I'm only aware of him playing a "Steve Hillage" set just once in the last decade or so (tho there's perhaps been a few others).

i think i once saw an interview where flea from the chili peppers described squarepusher as "the best bassist on the planet". i am inclined to agree. also probably the best electronic musician. certainly up there with the best.

Gong have been my favorite band since '73 when I was compelled to buy Camembert - just for the cover and the band photo on the back - also have not seen the Hilliage band since late 70's - would be a real treat to see Stevie - not as System 7 or Mirror.

BUT - my youngest son is coming and is desperate to see the Prodigy - looks like I will miss out!! Will have to catch Kangeroo Moon in a tiny attempt to make up for it!!!

Sunday is indeed shaping up to be one hell of a day, at least for moi. Status Quo at lunchtime (sorry, I'm not going to let this drop), Madness, Eat Static, Steve Hillage and Gong. I will be at the Glade most of the evening wearing a banana costume in honour of Daevid Allen and his Bananamoon album - and don't foget people "BANANA NIRVANA MANYANA!!". As much as I love the Prodigy they are going to have to take a back seat.

Can't see myself straying too far for too long from the the Glade all of Sunday; Breakfast 'til the Dinner Gong! Followed up by a trip on the Zion Train and then a bit of Freq Nasty untill all the dancing really starts!!!

Aww my god he was orgasmic last year, i think probably the bass player ever lol i look up to him & hope to one day get up to his level

Trotting over for Back to The Planet mid-afternoon, will then go with the flow. Hope I might borrow your chair Rufus?
