Ian Dury Reasons To Be Cheerful tickets tomorrow (weds)

[CanPayButWouldRatherNot]

From 20 Sets that Shook Glastonbury

They were mud-bombed off stage in '85



Completely unjustified, I'm sure though Geldof's lot deserved it.

actually jim was at that glastonbury gig and I mentioned this post ... he said he really remembers King ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_(new_wave_band) ) getting a massive blob of mud right in the middle of a lovely red jumper and they were pelted more than most

anyway the theatre show was excellent ... half the cast wore their disability with pride and it was a very powerful show

From 20 Sets that Shook Glastonbury

They were mud-bombed off stage in '85

The truth is some bands hate being at Glastonbury. There was the Manics not getting into the spirit in 1994, Conor Oberst christening the John Peel Stage in 2005 with a tirade against the late DJ, and back
in 1985 there was an almighty strop from the headliners. By Saturday night that year, 40,000 goths whacked off their bongo on carrot cake and LSD had spent three days wading through fields more treacherous than Ypres, putting up with surprise performances from New Model Army (gee, thanks) and a set from The Boomtown Rats. Before too long, the mud was a-flinging. After hours spent covering long-forgotten post-punks with cow tulip, fans welcomed Ian Dury with his Blockheads to the main stage. But habits are hard to break and Dury came under a sloppy attack. Forty minutes later he stormed off with DJ Andy Kershaw ticking off the crowd. Only after plenty of ego-buttering did they return for ‘Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick’, but by then, unity had been torn asunder.

Completely unjustified, I'm sure though Geldof's lot deserved it.

Is that a musical about ID (God forbid) or a performance by the Blockheads?
