EMILY EAVIS'S GLASTONBURY HIGHLIGHTS #4: OASIS

"1995 was a great year. It was the height of Britpop, and that was reflected in all the great bands who played - Oasis, Elastica, The Verve. Pulp were amazing, headlining the Pyramid stage. Plus, the weather was gorgeous. Another thing I remember is Robbie Williams turning up backstage. At that point he was still in Take That, so everyone was totally amazed to see him there. He bowled up to the festival with bright yellow hair. I remember thinking, Is that really him? He was hanging out with Oasis, running around - totally manic.

And then of course he joined Oasis onstage. It was quite a spontaneous thing - I don't think he'd planned it at all. But it was a real turning point. It seemed like that weekend convinced him that life in Take That was not for him. He seemed to have some kind of epiphany."

i was there as a young 18 year old at my first glasto. i thought the oasis gig was the highlight of the weekend, it was one of the best atmospheres ive seen at a gig.
it was just a shame the stone roses didnt play as well!!!
