Wormhole tonight has special guests for a jam. I could tell you who if I could remember what I was told, but I do remember one is called Damon.

2009 was the best gig I've seen - if you're not taking the piss what's happening there??

I’m wondering the same thing. Weird how it was just posted and then no follow up or anything. But it was the efestivals account that posted it which gives it a bit more weight perhaps?

might be worth getting over to it, one day I followed a rumour and saw Lady Gaga in Club Dada i think it was.

Currently in here waiting, good vibes at the moment but feet are killing me, so hope this pays off! Apparently the queue outside is massive now, maybe word spreading?

Can you keep us updated? 

[Glastokeeno]

Yeah will do, kamasi Washington walked past us a second ago. So presume he's on soon

Are we thinking Blur is unlikely at this point?

I'd say Blur are very unlikely. Damon collaborates almost as often as Chris Martin.

I thought the efestivals cryptic post earlier was alluding to Blur but perhaps wishful thinking. 

[ajhuk]

Heard anything @Glastokeeno ? 

[robillustrates]

I never read it as Blur, I read it as Damon and Friends personally.

Me too, esp given Damon's penchant for collaboration. Find it very unlikely Dave and Alex are there, or even Graham if he's not playing.

Ah ok fair enough. I thought the whole “I would tell you who if I could remember what I was told” thing could have been a quip to Blur.

So did I! I've just left, exhausted. Few people in there I spoke to are still holding on. One bloke said he'd received texts from multiple people off site telling him to go see blur and he had seen damon earlier in the day so arrived hoping for the best 

Good luck if you've stayed

[robillustrates]

Wouldn't be surprised to see Damon pop up somewhere tonight if not already though.

Did anyone get any photos of Ronson and guests last night? really curious to see who showed up.

Just left Wormhole. Kamasi jam session was special. Followed by a Brazilian DJ, no sign of Damon.

Any big secret sets happen? The only One i caught was foals - but that was hardly a secret!

Vampire Weekend Saturday morning on the Park was pretty special. A much better kept secret than Foals so far less rammed.

I enjoyed Big Moon, however bad the sound was and the girls were clearly pissed off with sound people, still pulled it and had a lot of fun!

I was told by the guy who'd booked the wormhole that they'd be a jam that included Damon Albarn. (He did give me other names too but I instantly forgot them).

[JSmurphy]

Enjoyed The Big Moon in Williams Green.

Nick Mulvey is doing a secret set at Ancient Futures in the Tipi field on Friday night, which has been added to front page.

I’d like to say a huge huge thank you and send a virtual hug to both of you for these posts.

I left a great Frank Turner set early to find the Ancient Futures tent in the Tipi field and get a good spot based on this information, and I am so glad I did. Nick Mulvey in a tiny yurt turned out to be the highlight of my festival, and quite possibly one of the best gigs I’ve ever been to*. I’ve seen him perform before, but being in such a cool intimate venue where it seemed like every single person sang every word and felt as lucky as I did to be there completely blew me away. I’m not ashamed to admit there were quite a few happy tears shed. 

Here’s a sample from his Instagram, which still gives me goosebumps... 

I’ve signed up for gold membership just now, as I would’ve completely missed this if this website didn’t exist. Long may it continue, and thanks to @eFestivals to all the work you do to keep it going.
