Fathers and mothers produce KIDS

BILLY

Goat - I was there, although what memory I have of the experience remains a mystery 

Can't find any single tracks so full set.  I see the 2015 one is also there, missed that at The Park, too far away

 

[grumpyhack]

The trouble is that Goat kept me going back to kids, which we've just had. Then I thought that in Welsh regiments we have Goat MAJORS. (And even a pub of that name in the centre of Cardiff.

So um,um,um here's Major Lance

 

[whisty]

Hmm, Major Lance!!

Lazer or maybe Major Lance would like Major Harris, take a pick

 

[grumpyhack]

Among the things I love at Glastonbury are the amazing LIGHT shows in places like Arcadia. Enough to bring down any passing Virgin jets!

Feeding the Fish also did a great light stick show in the Cabaret Tent in 2013 and are well worth catching if they return.

Two examples of why they say Glastonbury isn't just about the music.

I see there's some talk of Air maybe playing. Been waiting for them to appear since 1st visit 2007.

Air

CURVED

Curved Air were one of my favourite Prog Rock bands.  Still working and playing the Cambridge Rock Festival later this year.

Arc .

 

[grumpyhack]

NOAH

We'll be getting a slightly different Blue Sky this year.

I think some of the music chosen in part show the age of posters on here but I came across this the other day and it's uncannily accurate.  See how you get on.

Got me right to within a year. Scary. 

[brandycoke]

I'm 24 !...

On a biblical theme,.. here's a tune from "The Holy Bible".

Faster .

Not that i remember this...as i wasn't even born .

 

[grumpyhack]

How close was the guesstimate to your real age Brandycoke?

You can't get much faster than LIGHTNING

Happy memories seeing Lightnin Hopkins in one of the American Blues Tours in the late sixties, along with Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee.

Some songs just keep going.

Oh, just out by the odd decade or so GH .

Seeds.

 

[oneeye]

SOWING 

My age came out as 68! Not sure if that's a complement or not (I'm 51) 

[grumpyhack]

REAPER Another one of those songs built on a very simple but glorious riff.

My age came out at 67 and I'm 66.  So you and I must use very similar language Oneeye.  The comment was something about polite and well-educated with a broad use of language, so I'm not complaining.

 

[oneeye]

HARVESTER 

Some great dancing from fellow Devonians, certainly no worse than my moves in 2010 when this lot played Glastonbury on a very warm afternoon.

I'll take polite and well educated all day long grumps

 

[grumpyhack]

STRANGER

Adge Cutler, founder of The Wurzels, spent part of his time as a roadie for Acker Bilk, who had this hit in 1961 (before Oneeye was born).

A convoluted claim to fame is that Mrs GH No 1's mum taught Acker Bilk at Pensford School.  Sadly Acker is another Grumpy Gonner.

I too was at The Wurzels set at Glastonbury.  And, yes, it was hot.

NIGHT

All together: doo, be, doo, be, doo.

FLOWERS

had no idea how I embedded a youtube video

[grumpyhack]

WILD

 

And the fascinating story of how Herbie Flowers contributed that great bass opening.

 

[brandycoke]

Mountain.

 

 

[grumpyhack]

TOP

A taste of what's to come?

 

[whisty]

24 here as well, although the suggestion that I use words like Dude & Doh is completely wrong. As for my age it was bang on.

Pops

 

 

[grumpyhack]

FUN

Iggy Pop gives the stage security a few worries.

Anyone else remember freeze at home Ice Pops?
