well Nik Turner was a fan....
This is a repost and a fairly tenuous one at that, but I think it's hilarious, so there.

At the Stonehenge festival 1984, someone told Nik Turner (vocals/sax/flute: space rock legends Hawkwind) that the chief druid at the solstice ceremony was actor William Roache aka Coronation Street's Ken Barlow. He is indeed a bigwig in Druidic circles.

With this in mind, during Hawkwind's set he began chanting 'Ken Barlow, Ken Barlow' and got the whole crowd to join in. Googling this to see if I'd got this right, i found myself on a Hawkwind fan site and, in the track listing for that show there is indeed one named 'Ken Barlow'.

I'm sorry if this doesn't entertain you as much as it does me. But only a little bit sorry.
