Really not sure of that intel. Can't imagine they got much more than cider and crisps for doing Live From Worthy Farm.

There are secret sets and secret sets. Big difference between Radiohead at The Park and someone who's already playing elsewhere chipping up to the Crow's Nest.

Guitar music gets a bad rap these days and it's been a bit of a laughing stock for a while. But it's good to see it coming back with Idles headlining the Other Stage.

Guns 'n' Roses brought Dave Grohl out for Paradise City
OK. Fair. But he was onsite anyway and just stood in the background joining in.

yeah, sorry but i don't believe anyone does anything for free.
unless you are an absolute nobody, in which case ok yeah maybe - but if thats the case then you are doing if for exposure so its not "free".
when McCartney rang up Bruce to ask him to play - i am very sure that the very first thing Bruce thought of was "how much".
There's a difference between doing it for costs vs doing it for costs *and* a fat stack. In the case of Macca's guests they were clearly there for the man himself rather than to grab a huge bag.

Because it adds something to make it a special set compared to a regular tour night.
Plus, although there are obvious exceptions, lots of acts don't actually do it - Arctic Monkeys, Guns'n'Roses, Billie Eilish, Kendrick, The Cure - and going back further Kanye, the Stones, Bowie, Radiohead, Adele, Foo Fighters etc all performed without them.

The Sun ran a story on Dua Lipa that mentioned guests.

I'm also on the cold milk in the morning team. Nourishing, hydrating and helps line the stomach for that breakfast pint. In fact most days I'll grab two pints.

Any recommended sleeping mats/ blowup mattresses for a larger body type that don't break the bank?
Not a super cheap option but I've had a Thermarest Prolite for about 15 years and couldn't fault it.

Might be more to do with their agent / management. If they're currently seeking representation then maybe their usual avenues are starting to dry up. Not sure if they'll be up in Edinburgh this year.

FFS having to edit every post I make to fix the pronouns.

I'm sure Toby Young and the Free Speech Union have already rallied to the cause.
Secret Sets 2024!

I mean it's not impossible.....but there's nearly 30 years of shared history there - including secret sets, solo shows, DJ slots and popping up to sing its praises as talking heads - and presumably its been an under market value deal every time.
