Less and less spectacular

 

Peaked at Green Day

 

QOTSA and BMTH followed, now we’re lucky to get the likes of Don Broco and Soft Play

2012! Post War Glamour Girls! I remember I was chilling on a bench yamming a sausage when people were sprinting past me screaming Green Day.

 

Foals secret set as well? Can't remember the year.

You Me At Six in 2016. Absolutely rammed the Pit tent for their secret set. 

Bullet For My Valentine did one at Reading a few years ago, which was really weird.

Idles could do a secret set?

Still kinda remarkable he was sub-headlining Arctic Monkeys in 2014.

Has there been any news whether Digga D will be able to play yet?

seems unlikely, don't think he's done any of his festival sets this year

I would have said possible until I saw they are leaving the UK and playing in Switzerland on Friday 23

[she bangs the drums]

How many times will Militare Gun play 'Do It Faster'?

 

I am going with 4 times....

 

I am really looking forward to this set, just a shame their are loads of clashes on this day for me. I will need my trainers on to get around from stage to stage.

Really enjoying Militarie Gun, only recently got into them. But yeah, checking out their recent setlists, what is that about? Great song, but 4 times? 😂

It looks like at festivals they are just having a bit of fun, given they might not be playing to their usual audience and doing something a bit different 

[Andre91]

Do It Faster on repeat for half an hour.

The sponsored posts for Victorious are using the language of "Currently Biffy's only UK festival show". Feels likely they might pop up here the same weekend.

In Halifax on Friday, Victorious Sunday, presumably would be Leeds Friday and reading saturday?

I think that scheduling makes it more impractical unless they're up for treating both the Friday and Sunday for 2 shows in 2 days.

 

Certainly, I know their other shows are London and Glasgow dates that they're doing off their own back, but adding the "Currently" doesn't half make it appear unusual huh.

What does the image show?! it won’t load for me. I just get a question mark symbol.

Well that is interesting indeed! I mean theoretically they could play a secret set at Leeds during the day time and have a rig already set up in Halifax for the evening 🤔 think I’m going to be delusional for another 5 minutes then talk myself out of it to avoid disappointment 🤣

I’m exactly the same, we’ve been in this position enough times to know it’ll end up being Wargasm 😂

Chevron doesn’t open til 2 on Friday, would be plenty time for an early set
