Bradders Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 I think it was The Rakes in 2009. Unless I saw someone on Thursday, I can't remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasto-worker Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 What stands out is Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins and Steve Hillage and god knows who else all playing on the same stage at the same time { John Martyn may have also been in that lineup and there may have been others from Mother Gong } that was Glastonbury Fayre 1979.

Mardy Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 No idea. Just been thinking about 93. Dunno how I got there, dunno what happened. Remember seeing the Orb, remember Ultramarine, fuck all idea what else happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incident Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 No idea, but it almost certainly would have been someone I'd not heard of previously (or probably since) on a stage that i'd just happened to stumble across on the Wednesday afternoon. Possibly in the Green Futures Field.To be honest, even if you restrict it to the major stages / Friday onwards I've still got no idea and looking at the lineup isn't helping any (I know I saw Love with Arthur Lee that evening, but they were on as a sub, so surely must have seen something before that).

giantkatestacks Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 I want to say Eat Static but I know for sure it wasnt them as we were all off our faces watching a juggler for hours and then someone piped up that we should get down there to see them and the sober person said through gritted teeth that we had missed them by hours.

Mardy Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 me too. But iif sober person was that bothered about eat static they should have left the piss-heads with the juggler. I'm struggling with any sober person managing to put up with Eat Static for more than about 3 seconds, personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirDaniel Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 Unfortunately, the first act I remember seeing is Rolf Harris opening the Pyramid in '10.

LondonTom Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 Orkestra Del Sol at the Stone circle! I guess I must have gone to see something on the one of the stages open on the Thursday in 2010, but I can't remember where I went after the Stone Circle so for proper stages will have to say Magic Numbers on the Other.
