Loyd Grossman's Band The New Forbidden Confirmed For Glastonbury

Following a year break, Glastonbury returned in 1997 for arguably the most memorable festival yet. Torrential rain lashed the site turning it into an unprecedented mud bath – so much so, it's now known as the 'Year of the Mud'. Despite the mud, the 90,000 revellers trudged on in the newly expanded site. It also featured one of the greatest Glastonbury headline slots of all time – Radiohead on the Pyramid Stage on the Saturday. The BBC also took over television rights, increasing Glastonbury's profile even further. Above, the late-great Joe Strummer trudging in the mud backstage.
