Fair play to all of you posting in here for remembering all these sets … so I expect anyone beginning with z to have a good turnout of efesters at the farm in June 

Don't think ZZ Top will be back so we're hoping for The Zutons then? 🙂

My favourite Zodiac Mindwarp fact.

The Best of Zodiac Mindwarp CD has exactly the same track list as the debut album, minus one track.

Well this has made for a productive afternoon. I'm afraid I broke the 1-act-per-letter rule but I'd already compiled this before I saw that, so now you must suffer it too. I also used surnames, except where I forgot. Sorry. I need to do some work now.

Hallucinogen. Was that Hallucinogen in dub many years ago. I still reminisce about it. If I get dementia then I hope that is one of the last memories that fades

 

yes, exactly - in the glade.

i've only ever seen Hallucinogen proper once at a party in Brixton which was, somewhat ironically, sponsored by a drug awareness helpline. i'm pretty sure everybody in that room were well aware of drugs... mmckay...

This got me thinking if you could get bands with 0-10 in their names who have played Glastonbury. I've only seen a handful of these but can anyone think of a 3, 5 and a 10? I was gonna use Ben Folds Five but he played as a solo artist so doesn't count.
