"I'm actually more excited for this than I was for my Wembley Stadium shows because when you're playing your own [shows] you're not really winning anyone over, because they've already parted with cash to buy a ticket.
"But I think I'm going to be playing to a lot of people who might have heard some of my songs on the radio, but they're Glastonbury-goers, they're not fans of me.

In other recent Glastonbury news, a chant of 'Oh, Jeremy Corbyn' to the tune of 'Seven Nation Army ' by the White Stripes has been doing the rounds.
The Labour leader is set to open with a speech on the Pyramid Stage, where he will introduce Run the Jewels on Saturday afternoon.
