Man Hiding In Portable Toilet Waste Tank Escapes Covered In Poo (Glastonbury Pervert Camouflaged)

WHEN t. He ran off covered in poo. Sources say the man is about 20 years age and between 6ft 4ins to 6ft 8ins tall. If you see a small giant covered in poo, it’s most likely this chap. Do not approach him. Leave him to the Labrador puppies. That’ll teach him…

As an Anorak readers says:

Watch out at Glastonbury this year…Especially with theportaloo man on the loose. It’s set to be a muddy one this year so he maybe well camouflaged.

Glastonbury 2011 In Photos: Fans, Bands, Survival Skills Muddy Bogs

GLASTONBURY 2011: In Photos: The mud. The fans. The bands. Hideous toilets that the UN would condemn. A stranger in your tent, or yurt if you’re a thirtysomething stood in a muddy field with your mates, their mates and someone’s kid called Rufus who was taken out of school early to get a life experience. Squalor. Seasoned campaigners with wheelbarrows. The aching realisation that the plastic dickheads in the liveried camper trucks and the rooms in guest houses got it right. The low of getting sopping wet to the bone marrow and the high of not caring. The chance to be one of the mob up for a good time. The fantastic music  and the student with his bongo drums. The mix of the good and the bad. And the good tipping the balance…

Who Chopped Down The Glastonbury Holy Thorn Tree?

THE Glastonbury Holy Thorn Tree that sits on Wearyall Hill in Somerset – a tree linked to St Joseph of Arimathea with a history going back 2000 years – has been attacked. It has been hacked down. All the remains is a stump.

London Olympics Kills Glastonbury: We Have No Portaloos

THE London Olympics 2010 has killed off Glastonbury. Anorak had been looking forward to both events working in harmony to form a Well Modern Pentathlon.

Finally, we’d get a decent approach to drugs in athletics. All athletes would be invited to get as off their heads as possible before being invited to erect a one-man tent in the rain; eat ten small donuts without a drink; stare at the grass for 45 minutes without blinking; endure the din of braying thirtysomethings before you use a tent peg as a weapon; and seeing how may turds you can fit in a portaloo.

And the portaloo is the thing. Glastonbury headmaster Michael Eavis says an acute shortage of portable toilets means the show is cancelled.

Muse Play Glastonbury With U2’s The Edge: Pictures

GLASTONBURY in pictures: Muse rocked the Pyramid stage. Matt Bellamy was joined on stage by The Edge of U2. The show’s other highlight was another old act appearing – the Blockbuster’s gold run. Not since Bob Holness was asked for a “P, please” have we seen the hexagons light up…

Kylie Minogue Joins The Orchestrated Lesbians At Glastonbury: Pictures

KYLIE Minogue is kissing Scissor Sisters stager Ana Matronic at Glastonbury. It’s on stage, readers. We like our lesbians to be fake and an orchestrated spectacle. We like lesbians to be seen and not heard. Kylie adds her name and face to the gallery of lipstick lesbians giving the boys in the media gallery what they want –  and all they can handle…

Glastonbury Day 2 In Pictures: Emma Watson, Muse, The Dead Weather And Back Stage

GLASTONBURY in Pictures: Day 2. Here’s Alison Mosshart of The Dead Weather smoking a cigarette on stage and Seasick Steve supping a beer. Nice work if you can get it. Jackson Browne went one stage further and looked comatose. Scissor Sisters looked like an 1980s tribute act to soemthing that might have been good. And Muse rocked.

Zandra Rhodes added to the impression that Glastonbury is the product of an exploded in a clown factory by dressing accordingly. Emma Watson, the celebrity face of the show, wanders about with George Craig of One Night Only. Kelly Osbourne and boyfriend Luke Worrall did whatever the do. Jameela Jamil looked leggy. And Pixie Geldof looked like the games teacher your boarding school warned you about.

And the sun beat down…

Glastonbury In Pictures: Gorrilaz Clash With The Nautical Theme

GLASTONBURY in pictures: Mick Jones, Damon Albarn and Paul Simonon of The Clash continued to work that yachty theme as they joined Gorrilaz on the Pyramid Stage. Damon Albarn is the first person to headline the festival two years running, because U2 pulled out when Bono was struck down by an act of God. Snoop Dogg joined Gorrilaz on stage for their final track, Clint Eastwood, and De La Soul popped up with some lilting rap. This was nostalgia, animation, video, music, pop, mash-up and a show – Gorrilaz are for the internet generation…
