This year is a fallow year for to allow the grass to grow. This is a photo taken in 1971, the second Glastonbury and the first year of the Pyramid stage built of scaffolding, expanding metal sheeting and plastic reaching 25 feet tall. Arthur Brown gave one of the most legendary and terrifying performances of “God of Hellfire” wearing a horned helmet with strobe light, smoke and fire. 12,000 people screamed ! The Bad Trip Tent was Full ! I know I was one of the 12,000 people …..

The Pip Simmons Theatre Group horsing around backstage and on tour! "OFFSTAGE" written in 2024 now out on Amazon ⭐️ Thank you Michael Coveney for this great review ⭐️. “Sheila Burnett’s book is a quite remarkable & unique record of one of our leading fringe touring groups of the 1970s/80s across Britain and Europe, charting the account with fantastic photography of Pip and his company on road, ferries and trains, in performance, on and off stage, chilling out and horsing around, with evocative short diary contributions of all involved, including Sheila’s own postcards home to her parents in Birmingham.”
