So are you having a good time so far?
Dee:Yeah it�s been great�although we had a bit of difficulty getting here.
Was that the traffic or a lack of a car pass?
Dee:No, worse. We had a car pass sorted out�.we just didn�t have a car�Long story.
So whats your favourite Glastonbury moment over the years?
Dee:Well we played a few times in the early nineties but it�s got to be the Jazz Stage in about 1994-95. It was a full sea of people, it was mind blowing�brilliant. They had these like stilt walkers, there were about 8 of them and a person would come up to about their knees. You could see these giants wandering about in the crowd. It was amazing..absolutly amazing. It�s just such a great buzz. JazzWorld...well that�s where the vibe is. I love it.
So are you here for the duration or are you playing out somewhere else?
Dee:Basically, we�ve got to be in London tomorrow.
How do you feel about that?
Dee:����.�..Silence speaks volumes, mate. For real. I�m thinking about coming back. If I can, Sunday night I�m going to try to get back. Well maybe even Saturday, late Saturday night. I don�t know.
So how did the set go tonight?
Dee:Well the set went well. It wasn�t what we planned to play at all. This morning and last night, on the phone, we were having a chat worked and out what we were going to do with it. About 15 minutes into the set itself it went sort of left of centre. We just went off on one. I had the drummer come up to me and say �play a bit of this, play a bit of that�. The sitar player saying �play a bit of this, play a bit of that�. Toop came down and did a bit of MC-ing that had me on a different tip as well.You never know what that man is gonna do. Nothing is worked out, everything�s sort of on the fly. We kind of meandered. We did the Asian, the Afro Beat, we did some funky stuff.

So are you going to be doing any more collaborations with Natasha Atlas?
Dee:Good question�.she�s really busy right now. Her profile's gone through the roof lately and she�s pretty much out of the country. We�ve talked about it and put a few ideas down but you will just have to wait and see. Watch this space.
