Glastonbury/Whiskey Song - Help!!

Not really moneysaving I know, but I was hoping someone could help me.

I watched a tiny bit of Glastonbury on tv and saw a group (Male lead singer) perform a really upbeat song, all I can actually remember is that it was about Whiskey??

No idea who the band were and I have looked on youtube and can't find it.....any ideas??

Any help appreciated!

    That would be Bellowhead "Whiskey is the life of man"

    I think they are on the red button on BBC today, but after the Tennis is on.

    Can you remember when it was on? A lot of BBC's coverage of Glastonbury is still online here... BBC iPlayer

    If you can remember which day it was on then might be able to narrow it down a bit! Or whether it was daytime/evening?

    Was it rock/dance/indie/country etc? Can you remember anything about what the lead singer looked like?

  • the only whisky song i know is by the doors called the alabama song.

    lyrics
    Well, show me the way
    To the next whiskey bar
    Oh, don't ask why
    Oh, don't ask why

    Show me the way
    To the next whiskey bar
    Oh, don't ask why
    Oh, don't ask why


    For if we don't find
    The next whiskey bar
    I tell you we must die
    I tell you we must die
    I tell you, I tell you I tell you we must die


    Oh, moon of Alabama
    We now must say goodbye
    We've lost our good old mama
    And must have whiskey, oh, you know why


    Oh, moon of Alabama
    We now must say goodbye
    We've lost our good old mama
    And must have whiskey, oh, you know why


    Well, show me the way
    To the next little girl
    Oh, don't ask why
    Oh, don't ask why


    Show me the way
    To the next little girl
    Oh, don't ask why Oh, don't ask why


    For if we don't find
    The next little girl
    I tell you we must die
    I tell you we must die
    I tell you, I tell you I tell you we must die


    Oh, moon of Alabama
    We now must say goodbye
    We've lost our good old mama
    And must have whiskey, oh, you know why:o

    There are highlights of their set here with the whiskey song at about 4 minutes in:
