Was there some Underworld chat on here the other day? That would be cool, loved them on West Holts last time.

 

Woodsies would be perfect

Don’t think there’s any info but they’re popping up in all the surrounding festivals, have a new album, and haven’t played in what will be 9 years so seems a good bet they’ll be there - either Woodsies or Park headliner I’d imagine.

Pretty sure it was for Woodsies but cannot recall who posted it.

Why on earth are you being so hostile? Can you explain how I'm stirring things up?

I've never even seen the Discord.

Sorry - I may have got you confused - think it was the month of sundays comment, thought you were on discord. 

 

Tbh, some of the comments I read on discord annoy me, but this thread has been derailed enough...

Yep back to the topic please

I reckon Foals will do it this year, definitely big enough 😉

They’d be a good counter option to Neil Young headlining West Holts.

@fraybentos1 -  your pies are rubbish mate 

You're opening a can of erm  . . . . pies with that comment sunshine, and as the resident pie expert i feel im qualified to steam in and derail the arguments with pie chat. Fray bentos pies are acceptable, and have often been a last port of call emergency saviour, sitting in the cupboard all ambient and ready. The steak n kidney puddings are particularly alright. 

 

Obviously they're not brilliant pies, but they do a job, and ill not have them slandered! 

 

The steak and ale piglets pantry pie i had at Crawley v Lincoln at the weekend was a wonderful pie, thats my most recent pie. 9/10 i'd say

The Balti pies at Villa Park are exceptional. Also the Stephens Steak Bridies at East End Park Dunfermline. Furthermore, Fray Bentos tins are very good for making Yorkshire Puddings in. That is all.

It wasn't info just someone hoping for them but posted in a way that made it look like info.

@balti-pie where do you stand on Pieminister Vs Square Pies?

Weirdly im off to St Andrews in early jan, i appreciate you'll tell me that everything there is hideous, but im hoping they do a fine balti pie as well. Obviously i love a balti pie. Scottish football pies are a level above the pies down here i'd say, they've a wonderful way with a peppery steak pie at Clachnacuddin, my highland league love

Obviously there's room for both, but as a craft beer hipster twat i'd have to go with Pieminister

At the risk of them being announced for R&L in a couple hours, could Muse doing a secret set be the reason to decline Download?

Seems unlikely they would do nothing uk except a glasto secret set in one of their biggest markets.

 

Download would be fine with them doing both

I wonder if the Balti pies at Villa are the same as at Shrewsbury Town?  With cumin seeds on top?  Lovely!  Usually far better than the football.

Couldn’t see them doing a secret set at Glastonbury as a reason to decline Download?

 

Not that I think a Muse secret set is at all likely anyway.

 

If I had to guess at a “big” secret set this year, it’d be Kings of Leon. Not for me but it would be Killers-esque.

 

Wonder if Vampire Weekend are there if they’d do a second set like last time taking requests.

Wow never clocked that

 

random exclusive that

 

I'm going to pick up tickets for them next week, but very happy i've decided to do that seeing this now!

 

Secret set maybe from VW if they are still about perhaps

KOL seem very unlikely to do it consider they haven't played before (i think), Muse have a lot of history with the fest

Headlined in 2008 and played lower slots before that.

Disappointing that is, was thinking they were a certainty to be on the bill.

Could be a late-stage grab at relevance again. Wouldn’t headline on their own back, but being a secret set would make some buzz about them and they’re around. If I was a betting man.

 

Personally hope for much more interesting secret sets. A KOL or George Ezra type holds zero water for me.

We ruling Muse out of outright topping the bill?
