Anouk (Dutch singer)
In the end of the 80's until the mid 90's also lots of bands on popfestivals. Some where just beginning then and became quite big later.

I almost saw Pink Floyd. I had a ticket and I was inside the venue. But then my friend who I was with got sick and I had to bring him home. He couldn't travel alone. He was very ill (kidneys)They wouldn't let me back in anyway. So I stayed with him a bit. I am glad I did because he died a few months later. Pink Floyd concerts will always be tied to that evening I guess.
