There was also a 3 part interview with Richard
Ashcroft, in which he said performing at Glastonbury was like a bungee jump for
him, but no future plans for The Verve were revealed at this time.
He also vowed to continue his solo career and "saw no
reason why it shouldn't continue alongside The Verve". [Good news for both Verve fans and solo fans!]
