Glasto Organisers Pull Plug On N*E*R*D
The rappers' Pyramid Stage set is cut short...
N*E*R*D's Glastonbury set was cut short earlier this afternoon, after organisers pulled the plug. The band had taken to the stage nearly half an hour late, but Pharrell Williams's attempts to give the crowd "a full show" went in vain.
As Glasto bosses motioned to the frontman to curtail the show, the NME reports that Williams told the audience, "They're cutting our set short because of technical issues. You've paid between £100 and £200 dollars... and you want to see a full N.E.R.D set... that's what's going to happen."
However, as the band started their final song, the power was shut off, leaving Williams to jostle with the audience briefly.
