I also had tickets for Ray Charles for the year before he passed on, but it got cancelled and sadly he never played again. Had tickets for Michael Jackson's last gig, and for Daft Punk in Amsterdam but my Gran passed on, so had to give up my ticket and come back home for the funeral.

Upcoming Gigs/Festivals: Just Glasto, Pavement and Joanna Newsom currently.

[stuartbert two hats]

I can't believe I saw The Las. Thought they were a part of history, then they went and played the other stage. What's more, I wanted to hear Cast songs instead, which really surprised me, because I bloody hated Cast back in the day!

[nesta6245]

Kajagoogoo, my mate had noone to go with and nagged and nagged, it was quite good another girl fainted from our school who I didn't like so it kind of made it worthwhile.

I've seen Pink Floyd, Canned Heat, The Clash, quite a few that other people might not believe, but I certainly believe it, I was there.

And I CAN'T BELIEVE I am relying on the re-sale this year for a ticket!

[grumpyhack]

I've no chance of remembering all my gigs. I'm struggling to remember the first. I was into folk at The Troubadour in Clifton, Bristol and remember seeing Al Stewart in his early days. I was also into US West Coast music and recall The Electric Prunes and Led Zepp at Bath Pavillion. Around that time was also Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Pink Floyd and the Rolling Stones. I saw The Stones at the Colston Hall in Bristol in what was billed as their Farewell Tour in 68 or 69. They were supported by The Groundhogs, who blew them off the stage. Odd how 40 years on we'd still be pleased to see many of them at Glasto.

The Who in 2007.

I think I'll have to pinch myself when Stevie is on stage.

It's going to be amazing.

[whisty]

Iggy and the Stooges 2007

[feral chile]

With Stevie Wonder headlining Glasto this year for me it will be another surreal moment when he walks on stage as he is def someone I never thought id see.

Are there any other bands/singers who you've seen live who you cant actually believe youve seen, for me its :

Blondie at my first Glastonbury, in 1999, aged 17.

Seeing The Who and David Bowie in the same weekend at Isle of Wight 04.

Seeing James Brown support the RHCP.

Seeing Rage Against The Machine at Leeds 2008.

Seeing Neil Young last year at Glasto.
