At the Stonehenge festival 1984, someone told Nik Turner (vocals/sax/flute) that the chief druid at the solstice ceremony was actor William Roache aka Coronation Street's Ken Barlow.
With this in mind, during Hawkwind's set he began chanting 'Ken Barlow, Ken Barlow' and got the crowd to join in.
Not the most imaginative heckle of all time but, given the context, surely one of the most surreal - and f**king funny if you ask me.
What I don't know is whether or not said Barlow was indeed there, I'm afraid. I think I prefer it if he wasn't.
