An evening with Michael Eavis Questions ?

[Crazyfool01]

A post to ask if anyone has any questions they would like Michael Eavis to answer ? apart from the obvious headliner ones ? not sure if there will be the opportunity but im sure posters on here will be able to think of some great ones

[A Guy Called Matt]

Can I sing a duet with him at the kareoke?

[parsonjack]

How would you like to be remembered, or what would be your Epitaph?

[LondonTom]

Do you think the various hopitality options have took something away from the festival?

Why do wear shorts no matter the weather?

[Abster]

Can I come work for you?

Actually I would love to know why 2012 didn't go ahead, this "rumor" about the cost of poraloos is nonsense if you ask me, 2014 I remember seeing 2/3 portaloos most of the loos I saw where the Mk 3's however I did see some mark 2's in a place I wasn't meant to be.

My personal opinion is A secret government worker visited the farm and told Michael not to hold the festival in 2012 as it will take the limelight away from the Olympics!!

[grumpyhack]

Do you feel the 'spirit' of the festival has changed? And, if so, in what ways and is it for the better/

[stuartbert two hats]

What's the current balance of responsibilities between himself and Emily? I.e. What new responsibilities has she taken on since the last fallow and what is Michael still responsible for?

[stuartbert two hats]

Another one, what happens to the farm after Michael? Is one of his other children going to inherit it?

[Sawdusty surfer]

Why is the budget for the Greenfields so appallingly low?

[Space Shanty]

Has the increasing effort involved in organising Glasto, the hassle with the council, or the weather ever pushed him to the point where he genuinely thought 'That's it, I can't do this anymore'?

[___S_o_m_a__]

Can we have the green police back please?

[Gnomicide]

What brand of wellies do you favour?

[smudger]

does my bum look big in this?

[Poliwhirl]

Will there be any new areas or changes to existing areas next year?

Where do you buy your short shorts from?

[zero000]

Why is the budget for the Greenfields so appallingly low?

Because they can dilute it to make it go further...

[UEF]

Why is the budget for the Greenfields so appallingly low?

Because hey maaaan, we don't need big business to survive, we can be self-reliant etc

Fancy a vegan muffin?

If I should get to meet him again, I would like to question MEs braincells to see if he remembers our meeting.

A very long story (well, more like an after dinner anecdote) cut short here:

I found myself unexpectedly sitting next to ME in The Astrolabe on the Saturday of 2004. After some amazing banter/chat that I am cutting short here (nobody would believe me, I keep meaning to write it down in full), I mentioned how hard it was to get tickets that year (and for those who remember, that year was a bit of a transition period). Anyway, ME's response was along the lines of "Well get a bloody job then".

Every time I haven't got tickets, I have found it surprisingly easy to get a job there, (it's called volunteering).

So. Yes, You Can, go work for him (via Oxfam, Shelter, WBC, WaterAid etc).

Congratulations on being coherent at the time. That would be beyond me.

[Crazyfool01]

Thanks everyone will write these down and ask some if the opportunity should arise

[outlinereality]

Glad to see you got some tickets Crazyfool1!

Might see you there, and good shout on this thread! If I do get the chance to meet him, I'm worried all logic will go out of the window, and I might just start hugging him!

[kalifire]

Looking forward to seeing this thread updated soon!
