I saw Loophead at Glastonbury and was overwhelmed by
it! It was basically System 7 playing live
whilst Alex Dj’d the Live stuff through the mixer along with the vinyl and what
looked like a Kaos effects pad. The result was a fantastic mix of Orb and System
7 stuff, along with the Loophead track they released on badorb.com. Loads of
mistakes (including bringing up one channel so loud they blew the speakers at
the back) and on a number of occasions you could hear Alex queuing up the
records. But none of this spoilt it and their set was a major festival highlight
for me. Harry, I saw you there with your camcorder! I was at the front wearing a
Bob9 shirt, dont know if you saw me, if there's any chance of a copy of your
film, please mail me. The woman you described as looking like your gran is
Miquette Giraudy, Steve Hillage's wife!
Before Loophead we were sat in the Glade and I cheered at a bloke
that looked like a member of ZZ-Top wearing a flowery frock and Elvis
sunglasses, after which he came and sat down next to us, opened up his bag. And
proceeded to place a healthy portion of Grass and resin into my hand! He then
said something like “All it costs is a smile”! Top bloke! Said substances were
then enjoyed by many throughout the rest of the festival and definitely
highlighted the Loophead experience!
