Re: Glastonbury 92

["Paul Vallis" <paulvallis@ho...com>]

That Glastonbury '92 set was repeated on Radio 6 a couple of years ago.  
Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I don't think that there was anything much behind the comment about being a 
local band - I think Gerard was just observing the irony that they had to 
travel several hundred miles in order to play a local gig.  I think they had 
just come from Roskilde.
The recording I have has about 6 or 7 tracks, about half an hour.  Not sure 
if there is recording of the full set circulating?

  Seem to remember hearing the radio recording of that Glasters set which
bears out that he may not indeed have been a happy bunny.
  Something about them being a local band, but not feeling like they were
playing a local gig.
  Also, that they had played a big Festival the night before, the name of
which eludes me, but was definitely in Scandinavia somewhere.
  Got a CD of that Glasters set. Doesn't have that bit on it, but proves
that they didn't let it put them off. Far from it.

  The best live recording of them I've heard.
