Mark Ronson: 'Global Gathering Was More Special Than Glastonbury'

Mark Ronson has said headlining the Global Gathering festival last weekend was more special than playing Glastonbury.

The producer, who topped the bill alongside Kanye West at the festival in Stratford, said he felt as though the crowd was there just to see him.

“Glastonbury was so amazing because it’s Glastonbury, but there was something about the sun going down on here - it was even more special than that I think,” he told the BBC.

Ronson was joined by Wiley, who performed 'Wearing my Rolex', for the 55,000 strong festival crowd.

Other performances at last weekend's festival came from Moby and Robyn.
