FloorFiller Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 I know it’s a bit early for us to have any proper idea of who they’re gonna be this year, but what with us already having an Arctic Monkeys rumour, as well as info Florence turned down the opportunity to do a Park secret set, thought we might as well have a dedicated thread for this. So, who do we think/want? Jack White’s tour dates are pretty convenient, as well as him having done similar before and seemingly liking the place. Wouldn’t at all surprise me to see him do a Park or John Peel secret set, which would probably be better suited for his new material rather than being billed high up and having everybody wondering what the fuck is going on.

BluePaul Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Jack White is a good shout actually - he's in the country and has previous (guested with The Last Shadow Puppets when they did a secret set back in the day). Arcade Fire is unlikely but would please me immensely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t0paz Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Arcade fire would be epic, although seems unlikely. Jack White would be a good fit but may also make the full line up yet. And after Vampire Weekend did one despite already being on the pyramid line up, it could be anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppetmark Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 The 1975 would be my best guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubick Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Following another user's point on another thread about LCD Soundsystem being in country in June, I'll be praying to Jesus, Mary, Joseph and associated farmyard animals for this to come to pass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George1399 Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 The fact that Glasto has the ability to pull in the likes of Foals, Killers etc. for a secret set is just nuts to me as a first timer. I'd sell my soul for it to be AM but I think if it were between them and The 1975 the latter would be more likely. I think both bands are in a similar position of needing to kickstart their UK popularity again (IK AM are and always will be massively popular but they've somewhat sunk into the shadows). Whichever one does it headlines in 2023 imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingobernable Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Ahead of the 2017 festival there were a lot of rumours about Arcade Fire. They'd just realeased Everything Now and, like now, were doing all sorts of special gigs, including that one in a carpark at Primavera. (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-40129456). It seemed to make a lot of sense and it had been three years since they headlined. Anyway it didn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphoricape Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Where has the AM rumour come from? I'd be over the moon if they were there but surely would have to be pyramid stage or other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
