Anyone recognise this guy from 2007?

[lebenski]

This is a bit of an ask but I watched this guy in 2007 whilst completely wasted and laughed my arse off the whole time but have no idea who it was.  Would have been on the weds/thurs Anyone recognise him?

You're kidding right?

Played the stage next to the Beer bus in the Theatre & circus field in 2019, very funny 👍

It's harder not to see Mik than it is to see him!

My personal highlight remains him berating a toddler in a "Fuck Brexit" t shirt for being "a tool of the unthinking left", before jumping off stage and running off after 2 blokes who'd wandered away from his set to drag them back and make them watch until the end.

He's such a feature of the festival, especially on the Wed and Thu, that it can be hard to believe that someone might not know who he is.

He's pretty well known around these parts, does about a dozen sets a year at Glastonbury, can't believe you've not seen him since!

[lebenski]

haha no.  I'm not a particularly regular frequenter of these parts it must be said and most of my festival is spent stumbling around in a haze with the best of em.  Good to fill in a memory.  Cheers fellas

Was that at beautiful days? I remember a toddler staring up at Mik whilst he shouted "you don't know what bollocks are" to the young kid. The best time I've seen them.

Yes! About 10 people and a dog watching him on the little bandstand, completely baffled! And you're right, it was a Bollocks to Brexit shirt!

I think I was one of the only people (and I'm guessing you were another) shouting along to Plastic Fox 😂

[buddiepaul]

I got told off for having my hands in my pockets and acting too casual

[Crazyfool01]

Maybe I should go along … I’m sure to be picked on 😂

One of his songs. About a garden ornament.

It's quite hard to explain Mik without it sounding shit. Seeing him live is really the only way to get him, and even then he won't be everyone's cup of tea. I saw him for the first time in 17 and loved it. If you're around on Wednesday afternoon for his Croissant Neuf Bandstand show it's the perfect way to start the weekend

I loved that set so much

[The Dawg]

I saw him in my local pub about 4 years ago and he did 2 sets. The first set had me stood there saying to myself; "what the F... is this" and by the 2nd set I was dancing my arse off.

Thoroughly recommend everyone tries to see him live next week. Cracking stuff.

It appears to have been censored, there were a few things listed now it's just the cinema listings, not too unhappy about that, it's nice to wander and find unexpected stuff.
