kidpresentable Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 So what were they then... I caught: Stealing Sheep - late Sunday in the Tipi - brilliant and better than the daytime one Bird Courage - Sunday teatime at the Piano stage Unknown act - late Sunday Piano Stage, trio, two-thirds bearded, singer used a megaphone. Any ideas? Didn't seem to catch any on the earlier days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Unknown act - late Sunday Piano Stage, trio, two-thirds bearded, singer used a megaphone. Any ideas? Laish? Lily & Madeleine did a piano set on Saturday, and apparently Cate Le Bon did one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmouse Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Perfume Genius on the comedy stage Sat night. So damn good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risteardo Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Yeah, caught the Perfume Genius one, one of the highlights of my weekend. Enjoyed Lily & Madeline on the Piano stage also, but only when I went and sat right in front of stage, couldn't hear them from more than 10 feet back. Regretting now my decision not to stay for the late night Stealing Sheep show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airwaves Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 The problem with 'secret sets' this year was 1 - the late night Tipi sets were all listed on the clashfinder 2 - Line of best fit Tweeeted the Piano Stage ones so not sure any of them were 'secret' this year Stealing Sheep's last set last night was a bit of a visual feast. Shame it was 15 mins late starting and no allowance given to finish late as a result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame it was 15 mins late starting and no allowance given to finish late as a result Not sure why the pre-advance notice is a problem - made it wonderful as far as I could see and yet the knowledge didn't attract more people than normal - a win/win in my book? Also not sure an act doing a secret show could possibly start late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyfromBrackley Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Not so secret Kiran Leonard set which he himself announced at his earler big top set, was incredible, followed by Stealing shop, in Tipi on Sunday Arc Iris pianist performed a shared piano duet with a person unknown at about 1 a.m on saturday/sunday St Vincent q&a on library stage. Started later than advertised, so we HAD to leave when Ezra Furman struck up on the garden stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) The problem with 'secret sets' this year was 1 - the late night Tipi sets were all listed on the clashfinder 2 - Line of best fit Tweeeted the Piano Stage ones so not sure any of them were 'secret' this year The Tipi sets certainly weren't supposed to be public knowledge, but it seems someone with access to internal documents leaked them on Facebook. Piano sets have always been advertised around the site in advance. Did H Hawkline not play a secret set? Sweet Baboo (for whom he plays bass) intimated towards the end of his own set that he would.

swashbubbler Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Cate Le Bon said he was playing a set at 1.45, which I'd thought meant Saturday night but I believe it was Sunday afternoon at the Forest Disco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the only after hours set that night as the advertised 2am slot didn't happen. Were a few people waiting on Hookworms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, missed Hookworms earlier in favour of another act assuming would catch them in the Tipi. Not a great decision that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 MJ suggested on Twitter they hadn't realised there'd be severe decibel limits in the Tipi, which is understandable for the time but doesn't work too well if you're Hookworms.
