He's a real nice guy and asked us questions too

Unfortunatly not.. BUT.

I met Mick Jones!

What a guy.

[Jackmypie]

His brother I know, so I have met him a lot of times.

One of the band members from blur were at the queens head with Prince Charles

Nearly got him to touch my hand, was standing like a metre away

[TokiDoki]

I saw him wandering around the Greenpeace field at some point

I was down in Strummerville about 1:30am on Sunday when the man himself came struggling through the crowd looking for Joe's widow. It was great to see an OAP being mobbed (in the gentlest way possible) by adoring youths.

I was so surprised I completely forgot to ask him to give Dragon Field back to the great unwashed next year.

Did I have my camera with me? Did I? Bah!

Was fortunate enough to meet the man himself in Leftfield at BNP debate on Friday. Was very kind, had a nice chat.

At the Glade, during Quintessence.

Just said: 'Thank You'.

I think he got it.

We met Emily Eavis on the thurs by the queens head she was standing on a bench looking at Prince Charles nobody seemed to recognise her,we had a chat with her and we got a few pics,she seemed a really nice and happy lady.

HAHA. Am not in the vid but me and my fella stood right next to you, to your left, as you were shooting this.

I actually went around to the left as he was leaving and caught him just as he freed himself from the

crowd.

After 15 long years of looking out for the man himself I actually walked right past him in the Greenpeace field (probably after he'd just finished his Speakers Forum talk). I just thanked him for the last 15 years and said this was the best since then and Happy Anniversary.

He looked so healthy and happy. Like a tall, tanned gnome!
