But it can be assumed that Nick would be there seeing as he was the only constant of Pink Floyd and has remained on good terms with David Gilmour throughout. Rick Wright had been a member of David Gilmour's backing band for his solo work whereas Nick Mason hadn't. It's not a given that Nick Mason would have been involved. Would he even have had time to rehearse sufficiently bearing in mind this was weeks before the festival? A guest appearance possibly thoughbut that doesn't make it a Pink Floyd show.

fuzzy_logic Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Cant believe no one has mentioned the van In the crowd at Super Furries 1999 (other stage) - what/where was the driver of the van actually attempting to do/go 🤔🤔🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilgamesh69 Posted May 18, 2020 Report Share Posted May 18, 2020 Probably not really an unsolved mystery but I'm not sure where else to ask. It seems The Kinks were on the poster for 1993 but I can't find any mention of them playing. What happened? Also, where's best place to find which acts actually played the festivals? For the early years especially, it seems there are slight differences depending on where I look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danbailey80 Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 The year U2 played there was a rumour of them doing a secret set later that night, a few weeks/ month before planned. Neil knew about it because I remember pleading like a child to tell me. Actually maybe it was first year when they cancelled. Any remember this..?

Did Depeche Mode really turn down the chance to headline because they did not think the rest of the line up was their thing. Did the Stone Roses turn down the opportunity to play, as part of their comeback, due to the money not being worth getting out of bed for? Having spoken to my DM source the reason that they don’t play Glastonbury is that it doesn’t pay enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it move? Well who are you and where are you going said the caterpillar? Since the very beginning of time the Rabbit Hole location has been a mystery for absolutely no reason at all. Mostly it is shown on the map and it has only once moved in 2019. The secret bit is generally found attached to the non-secret bit, but behind a very very long queue. One of the secret bits contains Funkingham Palace which lists (most) of its acts on the lineup. I feel the following video sums it all up quite well......
