Chichester Cathedral The cathedral does not limit the music to just classical; it has hosted a performance by the rock band, Pink Floyd, who played at the funeral of their manager, Steve O'Rourke. Other performers, from the more popular end of the music spectrum, include Bob Geldof, and The Hollies. The cathedral is a nesting site for peregrine falcons, which use a crenellated turret at the base of the spire. Three female and one male chicks were hatched in April 2009. During the nesting season live video of the chicks is shown inside the cathedral and on the website. Chichester Cathedral Chichester
