It's strange but Ozric Tentacles seem to help me sleep.  I remember one
Glastonbury when I'd been going strong for about four days on the trot
and the Ozrics played the Circus Tent one afternoon.  Myself, gf, and a
pal were positioned more or less against a speaker.  I leaned my head
against it at the start of the gig and thought "mmmm, this is nice..."
and closed my eyes for a minute. Next thing I knew my gf was shaking me
and telling me the gig was over.
