suddyboyy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 First time glasto-goer. Absolutly epic. Was walking through Shanri-La on the saturday as Coldplay were on at the Pyramid so it would be quiet and stopped for a few seconds to do some naughtys and my mate saw Thom Yorke walking through the crowd, gave him a shout and had a quick word. Could it get much better? Then walked to the unfairground and took a few photos of the aeroplane when we overheard some of the dancers on top of it talking to their friends saying Thom Yorke is playing a secret DJ set at 1am and talked to them about it. Had a look around went back at half 12 and chilled, at about 1.10am There he turned up with a load of groupies and i assume the rest of the band, im pretty sure it was Phil Selway but not sure on the others. Thom came on at about 1.30am they closed the aeroplane and there was about 30-40 people in there absolutly packed and he played a fast paced reggae set for about 45 minutes, absolutly brilliant. Who i assume was Phil Selway was absolutly bouncing and kept calling me kid and drinking my vodka lemonade. Absolute once in a lifetime experience. Actually woke up the next day and wondered if it actually happened. Then walked outside afterwards and fatboy slim was doing a set next door!! Pictures to follow and a video! Was anyone else there? I hope some people have some other pictures!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suddyboyy Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I assume they were his groupies as they all had some gold (i think) wrist bands on and were all saying "were with radiohead" on the door The Venue Inside before the gig A dodgy picture of Thom He asked for no photos so didnt want to use any flash , struggling to get the video off my iphone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobser Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Was he dancing around like a blue-arsed prick ala Lotus Flower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 No, he was singing. I only saw about last 3 tunes but there wasn't any Pulp tracks or his solo work. I'm guessing they were old covers. He only had a drummer and a DJ, I think, as his backing band. All of the above info is a little sketchy due to my frazzled brain but it deffo did happened and only hours after I'd seen pulp at the Park. What a day!
