Thankyou.
A Night Like This
Thankyou. I'm stuck for something to say here. lalalalala. The next song's newer than that. Only played if it's not raining. This is called Catch.

Pictures Of You
Erm. We have to stop cos they've got to get a helicopter in to get someone out from down the front who's in a pretty bad way. So...erm & can you all move back it's like.. cos it's getting a bit deadly down the front......aargghh. I've got no idea where the helicopter's gonna land. Probably right in the middle of you. & for Mark who wanted to know, the score after extra time was Cameroon 2 Columbia 1 & I can't think of anything else to fill the time with so tell jokes to each other or something.

Thankyou. This is gonna go quiet (go quiet). This is Called The Same Deep Water As You. ...Oh. er it's too dangerous again. There's no helicopters this time but you need to move back again. Give you a drink? Erm did it work last time when he said, "Everyone at the back take one step back"? I bet it didn't did it? ...Please move back. Look behind you. (security announcer asks everyone to move back) . If everyone in here took one step backwards then we can just start again. Now that's an incentive not to isn't it? Take one step back cos we're gonna start again anyway. Right we'll do a really slow song so you can all just like of fall backwards then. This is called The Same Deep Water As You
The Same Deep Water As You

Fascination Street with Helicopter interruption
Ma.Sa. Version
from Cure News 10
question: how did you feel playing glastonbury? did you enjoy the show? were you concerned about the number of injuries to cure fans?
robert: glastonbury was ok, but it's organisation does leave an awful lot to be desired. there should have been crush barriers in the main field. - the one particular incident down the front with the girl being given the kiss of life shocked us a bit too much to really get into the set.
question: would you ever play glastonbury again?
robert: no. i don't think so.
from unknown source
'Fascination Street' interrupted by helicopter
Someone got hurt and the helicopter had to land to take the person to the hospital...
I think the guy got crushed. During the gig Robert is repeatedly asked to tell the crowd to move back, at one point he says 'well we will just have to play slower songs so you almost fall back, this is The Same Deep Water As You'!

Venue trivia:
  • from Infoman a very nice guy from the organizers of the Glastonbury Festival:
    Think the best answer for you is that the Glastonbury Festival is held at Worthy Farm, Pilton, Shepton Mallet, Somerset. I believe the Cure played the main stage, which is called the Pyramid Stage. If this is not enough, please get back to me. In peace, Infoman
  • Worthy Farm is the place where the stages stand, Pilton is the town where this Worthy Farm is part of, Shepton Mallet is a bigger town in the near of Pilton, Somerset is the region where Pilton and Shepton Mallet are in. So this means the Glastonbury Festival isn't held in or around the town Glastonbury? Yes, right in every way. The 600 acre Festival site looks towards Glastonbury town with a good view of the famous Tor. In peace, Infoman
