Rob Challice (MD, All The Madmen Records) : I remember at the end of June we were running a gig for the GLC in Victoria Park in London with two flatbed trucks, and we realised after we finished there, it would be a great idea to drive down to Wiltshire to visit the Stonehenge Festival which had been pushed off to a site by the White Horse in Westbury. Well, we couldn’t get anywhere near that, so we carried on to Glastonbury. We turned up early on the Sunday morning and said, 'We’ve come to pick up the PA' and they just let us in. We parked up and went off and enjoyed the Sunday, and they assisted us off the site at the end of it.
