June 25, 2000Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset, Glastonbury U.K.Steam rose from the mosh pit. Ecstatic faces, about a hundred thousand of them fixed their gazes upon us as we walked onto the stage. A roaring wave of cheers rose to meet us and I took my place in front of my microphone. There were people as far as my eyes could see — tens of thousands of them and all together they looked like tiny flowers on a mammoth sheet of wallpaper. As I imagined filling this huge field with my voice, he walked onstage, slowly and full of great intention, to a second wave of cheers which engulfed the night sky. Dressed in a shimmering long blazer, his hair blonde and tousled, his expression was both serious and bursting quietly with anticipation. The cheer that swept over all of us was deafening, a sound like nothing I'd ever heard. Human voices, maxed out and melted together, infused with love, euphoria and, since they’d all been waiting for him for hours, great relief. The crowd noise blasted past my in-ear monitors. He stood front and centre and the rest of us, his backing band, inhaled. We shot looks of cockiness out to the audience — the way bands do when we are about to put on some kind of unforgettable spectacle of musical heroism. But there were smiles too, and underneath it all, giddy disbelief. How did we end up here? I knew deep down that being on that stage, so high in the sky, in an idyllic corner of Britain at the turn of the millennium, was the stuff of rock ’n’ roll majesty. We were on top of the world. We were onstage with the man who had changed that world, David Bowie.
