My family saw Joey Barton p***ing in a cup in the 'Gentlemen of the road' event in a tent at the fields of avalon last year

I bet he threw it too, the fucking whopper.

On topic, I saw Fatboy Slim dancing to Mik Artistik in 2013. He'd been on in Arcadia the night before until really late, so I assumed he just hadn't slept.

Is going to bed at 7am, getting up at 10am for solid breakfast, Brothers breakfast and then Mik Artistik not de rigueur for a Glastonbury goer?

Not if you're Fatboy Slim. He doesn't sleep.

He should do. He should sleep until this EDM craze passes. At least.

Saw Thom Yorke in the park one year, but I was too hungover and star struck to talk to him.

Same. 2013, I think it would have been. I was walking towards the park and he was power-walking in the opposite direction in the same clothes he had DJ'd in the night before. I turned and followed him for a dozen steps before I realised how creepy I was being. Short bloke.

Bumped into Matthew Mcconaughey in shangri-la last year - asked him if he was Michael Mcconaughey which he found pretty funny

I'm sure he does. Somewhere between eating and raving. And repeat.

The song is inaccurate. He was bullshitting the entire time.

Michael Eavis on the Monday morning in 2010...one of my mates had gone 'missing' and one friend was looking in the med tent to see if he was there and me and my mate went with her and then we decided to lie on his lawn (next to his house) to catch some much needed sleep when he came wandering past laughing at the state of us.

Josh Widdicombe on the Sunday in 2014 (from Mock the Week) right next to the meeting point getting a drink.

Walked into Paolo Nutini after Royal Blood last year. A minute later I turned around and he was looking at me and says "Why's it so fucking hot?" (it wasn't); I reply "...it isn't?" and he walks off surrounded by a bunch of girls.

Apparently we also saw Arya Stark during Blondie but I've never watched Game of Thrones so I've no idea.

Stood next to Royal Blood during Robert Plant but they walked off half way through.

The girl who play arya (Maisy williams) was raised just the other side of Wells so she's a local girl. And if she's not in tatty leather n not pouncing around with a little sword she's fairly conspicuous. Edited April 24, 2015 by bennyboi

Maybe I just don't recognise them, but in all my years my sum total is a member of Coldplay the day they headlined in 2011 in the Avalon bar and Michael Eavis, who I've seen round the site many times over the years but only got to speak to on the Sunday in 2013, where I just gushed thanks like a fanboy. He came in for a hug and my obvious terror saved us both the discomfort that would have caused.

Kirsten Dunst walked past me up in the park prior to the Radiohead secret slot and last year I saw Ed O'Brien from the band not far from one of the entrance gates carrying his camping stuff.

Shook Steve Lamacq's hand last year, had a chat with Gruff Rhys up in the Crows nest and there have been others but my memory has waned over the years.

[elfimaju]

I fell on my arse right in front of Keira Knightly one year.

You could tell she was impressed.

Saw Michael Fassbender in Block 9 last year too at about 4am although I had to be convinced it was him at first

I was behind Fassbender in the queue for the ATM - he only took £20 out!

[Pinhead]

Half these bleedin celebs only turn up for one act, tweet about themselves being there, then bugger off a few hours later after doing a cursory tour of the site. In contrast, Fatboy is a permanent resident at Glasto and stored in a state of complete stasis in a pod at the farm until revived each year for Arcadia and Shangri-La...

Nick Grimshaw and his entourage of twats stood behind us for The Hives in 2013.

Luckily they walked off before The Hives actually started.

Her and "Jon Snow" were also at Boomtown seeing one of my favourite DJs play some disgusting bassline in a tiny tent with about 30 people in it. Was surreal.

[angelin]

They don't all do a tour of the site and leave. My mates saw Billie Piper and her husband packing up there gear and Chris O Dowd and his missus packing their car on the Monday morning. My cousin worked with Fassbender and he definitely was there for the duration.

Loads and loads as I work backstage and its very inevitable.

But I don't want to feel left out so I will mention that I once had a wonderful chat and a lovely curry with the very nice Jim from Deacon Blue.

[Spindles]

Isn't every member of Deacon Blue basically so nice that they are guaranteed sainthoods?

Yes I think they are. Hopefully a bit of his nice leaked over to me.
