Who's the most famous person you've seen wandering round the site?

[planetcat]

Sunday 1995 and my friend had been indulging in *stuff* all weekend and was in what can only be described as a state close to catatonic.

He noticed three blokes sat next to him at the Pyramid and thought he had played football with them in a local sunday league team. They insisted that he was mistaken but he was equally insistent that he knew them.

It was actually Supergrass

[ChopperChimp]

Saw but not spoke to:

Will Mellor from two pints drinking at the main backstage bar

Phil Jupitus heading out into the festival from one of the gates - he's a BIG bloke.

Jo Whiley being filmed there.

Ronny from Eastenders camping backstage (couldn't remember who he played at the time).

Also saw accross that field a bunch of blokes putting up one of those massive igloo pod tents who had to be Goldie Lookin Chain.

Pete and Kate leaving the backstage area with a bunch of big bouncers carrying their cases.

Gwyneth Paltro backstage Pyramid with friend and entourage. This was just after having a shave in the sink of a portabin toilet. Some blokes had been in who looked a bit familiar, I think they must have been coldplay.

Oh yeah and - Evis in a Land Rover.

[JJ28]

Mr Eavis

Ian Brown

Keith Allen

And the best John Peel - made my first Glasto that one!

[Homer]

I went to a mass 'wedding' in the Green Fields in 05 and Eavis was there laughing his head off. I never worked out if I just married my mrs, or if we were all marrying each other, so technically I may actually may be married to ME.

Also, Jeremy Hardy last year and the drummer from Ride in 94. How I've managed such a meagre total in so many Glastos I'll never know!

[Dominic1983]

Saw Bez wandering down from the Stone Circle in 2005, he was off his face I think! Also seen Colin Murray a couple of times, he directed my friends and I to someone selling 'stuff' in the Stone Circle! Oh, and Mika in the roller disco

[smudger]

Jeremy Hardy, Micheal Eavis, John Peel, Kate Moss with Pete (she defiantly gave me the eye, no really she did), David Gray, Howard Marks, Keith Allen, Jo Willey, Badly drawn boy, ...oh and her out of Absolutely Fab, you know Julia something

First Glasto was in 03 and one of the first acts was Inspiral Carpets, where Bez came up and told me and my mate it was raining.

Also saw Hugh Fearnley-Whitttingstall that year too, walking around Lost Vagueness.

Pretty sure I saw a spectre-like Vini Reilly from the Durutti Column near the Stone Circle.

Oh and I think I saw Emily Eavis watching PJ Harvey one year.

Never seen ME, not even driving his Land Rover, but I did nearly get run over by Hayseed Dixie.

[Spindles]

Suprised at the number of people who have never seen ME, with or without land rover, the man is ALWAYS out in the festival it seems, my favourite moment was seeing him riding down from the green fields on a bike with a huge grin in 99, looked SO happy:)

[spuddy09]

I met Terry Hall in 2007 near the other stage.I was quite starstruck.I seem to remember I looked like a twat in a poncho and he was cool as you like.Nice bloke.

[ampersand]

[Jutt69]

George Galloway, splashing through the mud in '05.

[Walden]

[Cannock Albion]

I stood next to Steve Lamacq whilst watching the Bloodhound Gang on the other stage, cannot remember what year though.

[pezzypops]

i never see anyone famous.

i stood next to don letts during morrisey in '04 but that's it.

[TokiDoki]

I've seen Michael Eavis a couple of times at the stone circle randomly, and I think once going round in his land rover.

I'm not very good at recognising famous people though.

[old fence jumper]

[2nettles]

I think I must walk around in a daze, I don't think that I ever seen anyone famous. not that I can remember anyway.

Must do better this year. If I do I will let you know.

[BlackHole2006]

[Jutt69]

I saw the guy who played Nana Moon's bloke in Eastenders. He was dressed completely in tie-dye, even had a tie-dye hanky with knotted corners on his head.

[riotradio]

I always seem to see Guy Garvey walking around. I also saw Alex Turner last year with Alexa (who looker uber cool!). Also Kate Moss and Pete Druggie in 2005.

Who's the most famous person you've seen mingling with us plebs?

[Oakridge]

Saw the actor Phil Davis (Quadrophenia, Vera Drake) a couple of years ago.

[Winston Legthigh]

John Simm at the Other Stage a couple of years ago. Can't remember which band, maybe Rufus Wainwright?

Peaches Geldof stood next to me in the Leftfield same year. Think she was dating the bloke from Ox.Eagle.Lion.Man at the time... so at least she had an excuse to watch em, no idea why I was standing through it.
