glasto

mornin campers - hope ur weekends were happy! started mine off by haring it down to brighton to interview michael eavis in front a live audience as part of the great escape festival

have only met michael once when i was paralytic in the lost vaguness field and i was haranguing him about how he was God.. so i was slightly more sober this time and surprisingly calm when it came to the interview..i hate public speaking despite being a 'broadcaster' in the loosest sense of the word...

we rambled on for three quarters of an hour and michael went off on many tangents as he'd warned he would

probably the most intriguing was when he told us he'd booked 2007's headliner (there is no glasto this year remember! it would be highly embrassing if you were stood in the stone circle watching the sunrise on your own in a months time!) ... he wouldnt tell us who it was and warned that we'd never guess as it was on of the most amazing acts of the last 25 years but so unlikely that we wouldnt guess

i ran through the usual suspects U2, the stones and pink floyd..and bunged in chas n dave for good measure but he was keeping mum ..later the wife josie blurted out that she thought it was michal jackson and that makes quite a lot of sense..but i didnt ask mr eavis..just in case we got it right...

ooh, what a mystery

the rest of the weekend has been spent huddling in a windswept marquee on top of a cliff on the isle of wight at a mates wedding... drunk... in charge of a small baby...with a hosepipe ban sweeping the nation..

wow

night night
