dentalplan Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Well no you said any secret band would open the NME despite a large intentional gap on FR. These could be different secret sets but it's more likely it's one band that isn't 'arena sized' and instead could safely play FR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow_Fellow Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 So the theory is an arena band will play the FR tent...? bullshit There probably wont even be one That isn't even the theory at this point Jon Mac's comments were already questionable to begin with, as they were way too ambiguous and misquoted to actually constitute anything of substance, and FR distanced themselves from the comments claiming they were made out of context. So in the end, all we know is that 3rd from top on the FR is a nice gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roughbloke Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I haven't been on to these forums for ages as Glasto was my last festival You guys have probably already mentioned it but could it be a band that is just about to play arenas? Post Reading/Leeds tour announcement time - could a band not playing the festival announce their first arena tour after the festival?

roughbloke Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Yeah, Jamie T! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foolee Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I think they've done that so that he's a stick on for next year! He'll headline NME or be 3rd main. Rather him headline NME though. Would like to go see him but he'll clash with the end of vampire weekend and doubt I'll get in the tent if I'm not in there early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babyquack Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I must admit, he was pretty damn good and I'm barely a fan. Crowd were superb too, that probably added a lot tbf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfc_478 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I must admit, he was pretty damn good and I'm barely a fan. Crowd were superb too, that probably added a lot tbf. Same, was great fun. Very decent 'secret' set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Getting an act better than anybody suggested must have been a welcome plot twist! Was he Leeds too or just Reading? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Lawn Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 YM@6 added just in case people start thinking the secret sets are worth turning up to in future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Jake Bugg did one too. Jamie T was previously suggested though, and he's not better than some that people wishfully suggested like The Cure, Weezer and St. Vincent. I bet the people who went to the festival with secret set hopes at an all time low were pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, he and the crowd were fantastic. Great secret set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
