Primal Scream - Live at Glastonbury 2005 (tv-rip) torrent

Legendary performance where the band were so fucked that they ended up getting the plug pulled. Includes pre-gig Bobby & Mani interview with Colin & Edith.

From The Guardian:

Eleven years ago, Nicky Wire entered Glastonbury folklore by opining: "They should build a bypass over this shithole". But he's a pussycat compared to Primal Scream's (Pyramid stage, 8.50pm) Bobby Gillespie. Early on in the set, he promises to "give you bad vibrations", and he's not wrong. Nobody expects the band who wrote a song called Kill All Hippies to start gushing about leylines, but this is ridiculous.

He announces, "We're a punk rock band and you're a bunch of fucking hippies", says "fuck you" to any Kylie fans in the audience, and accuses everyone of being complacent cattle. The only way he could have caused more offence would have been by wheeling on an effigy of Michael Eavis and setting fire to it.

What makes this darkly thrilling as opposed to embarrassingly petulant is the sheer force of their set. There have been few moments this weekend more gripping than Swastika Eyes and the climactic Movin' On Up. Even then, however, Gillespie manages to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Bassist Mani starts up a Stone Roses bass line and Gillespie shouts, "Do you want to hear the Stone Roses?" To the crowd's enthusiastic reply, he responds, "Well you should have been here 15 years ago, you fucking lazy bastards."

Finally, a security guard escorts him off stage, but not before he's thrown his microphone into the crowd to a chorus of boos. I get the sneaking feeling this might be Primal Scream's last Glastonbury appearance.
