I'm very impressed they've got Florence but not headlining - I was convinced she would be top of the bill or nothing this time round! Interestingly though the Sunday headliner remains unconfirmed, wonder who it is?
Blur are one of the strong rumours, though it seems to soon to me.
it lasted for 16 minuets so a fair number of returns.
Patti Smith is a great name to add to it. I'd definitely go and see her. Will they ever get Bowie again? I'd love to see his new songs live.
Oasis was 95 also playing was The Cure, Orbital, P J Harvey, Simple Minds, Portishead and Al Stewart and many more and not forgetting The Bootleg Beatles who were excellent as always.
Tickets were £65 Attendance was 80,000 not counting the ones who got in when the fence was taken down.
I think I was working in the backstage compound so very handy to reach NME Stage { was renamed The Other Stage in 1997 } and then back again so missing the crowds going to the Pyramid area { as the Pyramid Stage burnt down just before Glasto 94 so there was no actual Pyramid in 1995 }
Bowie last played 25th of June 2000 and I was there to see him.

He has a open invite but who knows if he will ever appear again.
Mike Scott was at Glasto 95 played in the Acoustic tent
Hyde park 1996 { with David Gilmour }
Hyde park 2006
Glastonbury 2007
what was interesting about Hyde park 1996 was it was not held in its normal spot { have not a clue why }
it ran parallel to Bayswater Road with the stage to the west - there was thousands who showed up without tickets
I have lost counts at how many times I have worked at a concert where Paul Weller was playing.
Thanks for the heads up!
Now its only http://clashfinder.com/s/g2015/ claming its Saturday night and its in the Park so they may have the day wrong - the stage wrong and the time wrong - it will all become clear the closer we get to it.
Show-off! But seriously, Patti Smith is playing 'Horses' in its entirety on June 7th in London.
I'm not sure if she'll ever play live again, but if you ever see Joni Mitchell live, babelogue, then you've seen the Holy Trinity, in my opinion!:)

people have a alert system in place and just like sods law ' many people were not at home ' and did not have their registration number with them and by the time they got back the sale had gone .
