Banksy Tenner in Rabbit Hole?

[NoBallGames]

I see elsewhere that a person claiming Banksy Tenner was given out in the rabbit hole this year via a rabbit wearing a gold scarf. It first showed up in Exit Through the Gift Shop movie, but here is a link to the Tenner generally. http://www.ebay.co.uk/bhp/banksy-tenner 

 

Just wondering did anyone else get any/see this happen?

Talking of Banksy, does anyone remember the year when "Plain Clothes Drug Dealers In Operation" graffiti was seen? This year, I saw something similar and wondered if it was his:

Probably not, but still made me smile. Anyone else see it? I think it was near the entrance from Oxlyers onto the railway track.

We could rename this thread to Banksy @ Glastonbury for sure. If anyone has any Banksy art pictures from Glastonbury or stories I'd sure love to hear them.

I love the idea that on top of the music and all the other stuff, you can see something random that reminds you of Banksy and there's a good chance it is by him. You know, that artist whose works go for millions just dotted about with all the flags.

I love the way his contributions are sneaked in - some graffiti here, a rubbish truck full of mutilated bunnies there and artwork disguised as change. Has he ever had stuff at Shangri La or is it always where you least expect it?

one year my friend had his hand spray painted by someone claiming to be banksy , it was in shangri la at some ridiculous hour , have always wondered to this day doubtful it was him but .. yes he washed it off !!

Never realised that was a Banksy.

I took a fag break from work one year ('13) and found this backstage waiting to go out and about. The Sirens of the Lambs:

I immediately called a few colleagues over to have a look and said at the time that I thought it had Banksy written all over it. Had to wait 'till I got home to confirm it as such.

2007. Probably one of my favorite Wednesday nights ever sitting on these all night chatting rubbish to people!

Yeah I was totally gobsmacked as that drove through William's Green (Sunday morning?). Brilliant statement. Really thought I hadn't come down off the night before though...

Banksy and Charley

Wasn't there a shed with a statement about 'the festival will close early today due to the recession' a few years back?

Can't find an image.....

My memory is telling me 2014, but may be way off.

That's my mate walking in front of it. He's site crew and got roped into being the angry farmer, clearing the way. Three weeks after the festival a signed Banksy print arrived for him with a thank you letter. Happy days.

 In '97 another friend of mine was working the dance tent. His mate Banksy painted up a dozen sheets of ply that formed a wall. After the festival my mate couldn't get his huge Merc camper out so used all the ply as a road over the mud and totally destroyed it. He's still gutted. Had he known what he knows now.............

[Sawdusty surfer]

And the second mate ^ used to hang out in Banksy's workshop (that he used to share with Pete Stars, who does all the huge inflatable star and spiral decor) and used to sell Banksy hash. He was always offered art work in exchange....He always asked for cash. Oops.

wow... cool shiz in this thread. @Sawdusty Surfer those are some amazing stories. I googled a bunch and found so much Banksy at Glastonbury stuff just so neat.

Yeah I remember seeing this driving around near the glade area, must have been 2014 as I didn't go in '13 although could have shown up both years!

Yeah you're right. I miscalculated. 2014. Glastallica year.

I so hope the shed was a banksy - I saw it was near where I camped!!

[johnmcga]

There was an ice cream van there one year that was a Banksy, think it was in 2009. I took some photos cause I thought it looked cool, but never realised it actually was a Banksy until I saw it at his exhibition in Bristol some time later. When I searched online, I saw it was the same one:

I think he also did some art work on the Mystic Swing, a faintly bonkers old-school fairground ride that gave me a my girlfriend a right scare a few years back.

pretty sure this was 2011 - I seem to remember quite a lot of  graffiti about U2 that year too, no idea if that was Banksy related mind but sure I have pics somewhere!
