What Will Iggy Do?

Did Iggy Pop set the precedent at Glastonbury for all his future summer festival behaviour?

In a moment of madness, and, I'm sure, much to the irritation of the security staff on shift at the time, Iggy Pop and the Stooges invited fans onto the stage during their set at the infamous Devonshire festie for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to boogie, live, with the band themself. For about a song-and-a-half, muddy Glasto-goers jumped around all over the stage, sung with Iggy into the mike and did just he said - "Come on! Take over!" He introduced the stage-invaders at the end of the song asking for a round of applause for the World-famous Glastonbury Dancers. Looks like sheer mayhem to me, but cannot wait to see if they've been warned off such behaviour for FIB or whether the whole thing is to be repeated in just under two weeks.
