Here's a quote:

The article's entitled '50 Festival Moments' and 808 are at number 34:

808STATE, Glastonbury 1992

"Sunday night, the weather's good. Brain-blistered by endless chemicals and an awesome firework display, the crowd goes abso-f***ing-lutely mental to 'Cubik'."

Yup, there wasn't a Glastonbury in 1991 - also there's a bootleg tape of the 1992 recording at Waterrat's site, although I've tried (and failed) to get a copy from him... :(

Yes, there's a bootleg DVD of the 28 June 1992 Glastonbury gig. Someone sent me a copy a few years ago. It's terrible shaky audience handycam quality, but evidence nonetheless...

Are these ZTT or Rephlex sleeve notes?

That sounds exactly like the one on that site - i.e. bad sound quality, shot from the crowd, shaky, etc.

I don't believe that the TV companies had started to film Glastonbury back in 1992?

Sorting through old vids tonight. Found a recording of the local HTV news of Tom Jones at Glastonbury 92 (recorded for my mother) in the report there is a clip of 808 state playing Olympic - Eurobass mix. I can also remember seeing a clip of In Yer Face from the same set (with the cool lazers over the crowd). Markus mentioned that cubik was played - but is there a track listing for the performance?

I can do that but its a blink and you'll miss it. I have saved it on my computer though. Wait till I find the In yer Face clip it is slightly longer and you can see you on the stage if I remember rightly.


Also I had another clip somewhere of convicted kiddy fiddler "Jonathan King" behind the scenes at a music event but broadcast at a awards show later in the year - probably Brits 91 - to show the music tallent of that year.

He says how he loves 808 state because they compose electronic music (something like that). In the clip he pops his head into the 808 room and says hello - I think. I cant remember if there is an interview - will check when I find the vid.
