Monkey Woman Yuk! "Entrepreneurs" will stick at nothing!

Glastonbury mud for sale on eBay
By Metro
30 June 2004
Music fans who failed to get a ticket for Glastonbury can pretend they were there - by buying some authentic festival mud.

Two entrepreneurs have stuck samples of Glastonbury soil on auction website eBay.

One seller says he scraped the mud from the boots of his son, who squeezed to the front of the Pyramid Stage to watch Oasis, Sir Paul McCartney and Muse on Sunday.

He adds: 'Stored in a plastic bag (with a piece of straw and grass for company), this should arrive with the early dew still soaking into it.' As Metro went to press last night, he had attracted six offers and a top bid of �2.36.

A second lot, put up by an artist who framed his mud, was going for �1. Meanwhile, a string of bootleg CDs of this year's performances are already for sale on the website.

Gazza I see Michael Eavis (the organiser and site owner) has said again last week that the act he wants most for next year is the Stones - although they've turned it down on several occasions before and he's not optimistic they'll say yes for 2005..

Even though its an event that wouldnt appeal to me personally, I think if the Stones are ever going to reach a new audience, I'm coming round to the opinion thats one festival it would do them nothing but good to headline. The media coverage of it here is massive and their credibility would rocket overnight.

Maybe he hasn't offered them enough money. How much is he willing to pay?

jb Aside form early Jazz festivals, Kenvbworth and the shameful SARS episode, the stones has avoided the trappings of these embarrassing, self-indulgent music festivlas. I thin after aAWoodstock 94, we realized that todays youth are nothing more than drugged up, mean-spirited vandals who ruin it for the true fans.
