Secret Set Joys

[Someoni]

Thought I'd see if anyone else has any fond memories of walking past a reasonably small tent and recognising the sound coming from inside...

 

I've seen Ed Sheeran doing a belter of a set to about 200 people.

 

Also just missed this but the voice was immediately recognisable..

Craig David...before the resurgence

Thom Yorke at the Park in 2010 was incredible. I had zero idea, it was only the soundcheck that made me wonder

Loyle carner,rabbit hole at 1am in 2022. Not a fan but it was packed and the atmosphere was electric.

I know that they aren't everyone's favourite on here but seeing The Killers at the JP Tent after sprinting from Barry Gibb was a wonderful Sunday afternoon.

[Gnomicide]

Ezra Collective in West Holts Bar in 2023. We were already in the tent but didn't know they were coming on.

I've got a belting video of him from  2017 where he brought his mum on stage cos he'd finally made it. Emotional. Probably drugs but still nice..

Lady Gaga at Club Dada in 2009. We just happened to be there at the time she came on, no idea if it was leaked in advance - I don't remember it being that busy.

Brian Turner B2B Paul Rankin in 97

[Festival Sounds Podcast]

Wasn’t a secret, but Hot Chip lead singer Alexis Taylor in the Crows Nest this year was a gift. Stumbled in looking for shade from the afternoon sun 

[Monty Pythagoras]

Olivia Dean Strummerville this year was good. She basically just took requests for 45 minutes.

Not busy either due to the fact that almost everyone else on site was at Shania Twain then Avril.

I found on from a thread on here, back when hardly anyone used the internet at the festival.

I remember Biffy Clyro giving out little flags to advertise theirs, same year I think?

 

Then 2011, the first year the internet seeps through to the festival, it ends up being Pulp and Radiohead and EVERYONE knows

Franz Ferdinand at The Park in 2008 was a surprise and a treat for me.

Yeah, they were worried nobody would show up, and were giving out flyers that afternoon at the entrance to the Park

I blame that secret glasto nonsense for nothing being secret anymore.
