So, can we get a comprehensive list of the unannounced (sometimes) and ad-hoc gigs that took place in The Tipi, in the woods and anywhere else. To start off I saw:-

Saturday night - Tipi - The Acorn and Darren Hayman

Sunday night - Tipi - some bloke who's name I didn't get and Brakes

Sunday night - woods - saw the cellist from The Leisure Society (who I also recognise from Sons of Noel & Adrian, and also playing with David Thomas Broughton) with a guitarist / singer who I didn't recognise.

I've seen others mentioned in other threads but can we collect here.

Franz Nicolay (keyboardist with the Hold Steady) was the guy on before Brakes.

Also caught a bit of Josh T Pearson late on Saturday night and T Model Ford on Sunday, both on the piano stage. Apparently Whispertown 2000 were on after T Model but didn't hang around for it.

Friday - The Duke & the King, and though I didn't see them, didn't Ohbijou play?

[Wiggum]

T-model Ford in the woods. Can't remember which day though.

edit - Oops, already been mentioned.

Did Okkervil River really do a set in the living room?

I hope not. That'd make me sad.

Yes and I missed it too...was blissfully unaware until someone spoilt my night by insisting on showing me the pics whilst I was at Richmond Fontaine...I cried even more

We saw someone on Sunday afternoon in the woods, via eavesdropping we managed to establish they'd played the garden stage the day before but no-one ( within earshot) could remember who they were. Who were they? They were folky.

Sounds like it may have been The Leisure Society who played the Garden Stage on Saturday and the woods on Sunday. Did a great version of Gary Numan's Cars.

[brighteyes]

Brakes in the Tipi after weird circus Hold Steady man.

Sorry.

It wouldn't help if I mentioned how amazing it was to have Will Sheff six feet away doing Westfall, would it?

I don't know why I'm asking this, because it'll just increase the pain of having missed it, but when exactly on Sunday did this secret OR gig happen? We were camped in front of the Garden Stage for most of the day, so to think it was happening only metres away causes a devastating pang of regret! I daren't even mention it to my wife, she'll never forgive me for not somehow finding out about it

[Swindlebiscuit]

We caught the end of it at around 4.30ish. Wandered over there after Bob Log.

Bugger! If I hadn't fallen asleep during my massage in the Healing Field, I would probably have heard them, at least!
