Everyone who goes to Glastonbury seems to have their own traditions - a bar you always go to, a special place to camp, the thing that always makes you feel that Glastonbury has properly started. For the group that I go with that tradition is a trip to see the marvellous Mik Artistik. And since he plays every day from Wednesday onwards, and more than once on most of those days, it's pretty easy to catch him!
He's definitely one of those acts that you have to see live to appreciate him properly - the wonder of 'Plastic Fox' comes alive when everyone is singing along. His songs are the proper Shakespearean mix of comedy and tragedy, and if it's your first time at Glasto then I can't think of a better way to lose your virginity and experience the proper spirit of the place!
