Glastonbury 1995 vs 2017 - madness...

[Dannytc]

All the headline rumor flying around. Are Glastonbury just planning a 1995 reunion, with Oasis, Stone Roses and Take that reform haha

 

1995 - Oasis on the Friday (with Robbie Williams there partying with them, during his mad time after stealing a Mellon and quiting take that...)

           Stone Roses, on the Saturday

 

Oh and 1996 was the fallow year, like 2018 ha.

(Don't take my post too seriously, just freakishly coincidental if it happens to have them 3 on the line up!)

Where did you hear this? If true, i'd cream myself.

I was there, bunked in. I look at that poster, i can't remember a single act i saw that weekend, aside from Woody Bop Muddy. My overriding memory of that weekend is a green microdot on the first night. Did i see Spearhead? I think i did, but i'm not sure. Maybe i've just convinced myself i did over the last 20 years.

Looking forward to looking at Glastonbury line ups in twenty years time and wondering what the fuck a Wolf Alice was.

That'll confuse fewer people than King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.

"Contrary to rumour, this is NOT the last Glastonbury Festival - see you next year!"

Liars.

My first one was 1995 - Stone Roses weren't there - famously subbed by Pulp - who were awesome.  Oasis clashed with Prodigy and I saw the latter.  It was the Cure Sunday night.

Weather was glorious all 3 days (a bit cool on the Saturday).  Other highlights included Weezer, Verve, Belly, Elastica, Ash - the height if Brit pop and all that rubbish......but it was a great festival - still one of my favourites even after all these years

Cripes, my memory is bad.  I know I was there.  I look at that poster .... I don't know who I saw. 

I do remember it being way too hot and the water taps not being on all the time???  Or do I??? 

[T-Mouse]

Wow jeff buckley in 95. Was anyone there? And if so was it as incredible as im picturing in my mind?

[mrfunk]

It was my first and the best.  Shame,  prodigy,  orbital,  massive attack

Glad it's not just me who has spearhead delusions, I swear blind I've seen them but can't figure where or when.

Yes

No

First thing I notice on the old posters is the continued presence of Billy Bragg and Attila the Stockbroker!

blimey flaming lips played in 1995? Can anyone remember it?

PJ Harvey was flipping ace that year.

Was he disappointing live or are you not a fan anyway?

Yeah...not really a fan anyway.

It's not that he was particularly bad or anything - more we were just sat there having a few drinks and only giving it cursory attention, so transcendence wasn't achieved.

I didn't see them at the G, but saw them in a similar timeframe - from memory, mostly Clouds Taste Metallic material, with lots of moshing for She Don't Use Jelly.

dammit. They'd have still had ronald jones back then too. Still, I'm sure the lightning seeds or wherever I was were great...

I am taking your allegations extremely seriously - pity the poor folk who will be attending the festival in 2036 and will have to endure the reunions of Coldplay, mumford and sons, and Bloc Party! 

I see War played the main stage that year- would have liked to have seen them. 

think there is extensive channel 4 coverage from 1995 or something on youtube- Marc Radcliffe looking very youthful, Jo wiley looking exactly the same,  and forgotten man Mark Lemar (who has vanished off the face of the earth)

This is always true every year

 

 

I hope the other thing we get from 95 is The Roots on West Holts

Lamarr is an utter prick throughout that whole coverage too - would not stop playing his guitar.

I hope Bodger and Badger make a come back

All of the presenting in the 1995 footage is awful.  Really makes you appreciate the majority of what the Beeb churn out.
