Did gilmour, jones and bruford play the whole set or just come on for the game? anyone know does a recording exist?
i found this amusing report:
"There was a lengthy delay before Roy Harper came on stage. Dramas erupted backstage. Harper threw a tantrum when he discovered that his chauffeur driven Rolls Royce had been driven away with his stage clothes in the boot; he wrecked one caravan and was only just restrained as he set about wrecking a second. He had been invited to join the bill at the special request of Pink Floyd. He eventually wandered onstage with a small orchestra behind him. He made a slow start, and, like Linda Lewis, couldn't be heard from the back of the arena. Soon, with the help of Trigger, his band, and a few more decibels, he came to life and gave a first rate performance. Songs like Highway Blues and Please Leave The World As You Find Itare great festival fare. But he didn't look happy and announced that he was quitting England for America (an idle threat)."
