Above is what daughter Bea rates as one of the best rock and roll moments of tv from last year's Glastonbury coverage as Bobby Gillespie lets rip in an interview. Most of the bile goes towards Basement Jaxx who were headlining and were probably more the sort of thing a Glastonbury audience would go for.
It was a strange performance by the Scream later as Gillespie baited the crowd for being Hippies, spat on a camera and derided their inability to dance and taunted them with 'we came here in a helicopter'. Beautiful. 'The war on terror is a pretext for the setting up of an international police state' BG chanted. Gillespie was escorted off the stage by security after overrunning.
The set they played was a blinder including of course 'Kill All Hippies'. I must admit when it was going out live I was loving it - I felt Bobby was telling it like it is - Glastonbury is an awful, hypocritical event and the punters are naive and obnoxious.
