When people do secret sets do they do them in the Rabbit Hole main bar or in the one through the tunnel? Like for example Mark Ronson the sunday played one of them but I don't know which one

I still get confused by this ...

I think the listings is for the main-tented Rabbit Hole whereas 'Down the Rabbit Hole' is for secret and surprise sets - often accompanied by a big queue.

Last year we headed up the hill in the wee small hours of Monday morning for a bit of a send off from Eat Static,('cos we are old) as flagged up by @stuartbert two hats in his Secret Glasto disguise. We squeezed into the tent and wriggled down to the front and jigged around for a while. It eventually dawned on us that we were in the wrong place and were right at the front of Mark Ronson surrounded by lots of young, pretty people. So, swings and roundabouts eh?!

I know it says pop but wonder what kind of music she'll play?

She's known to be in to some pretty cool music, she was at a recent Deerhoof gig at my local venue the Hare & Hounds in Birmingham.

Got to love the Hare and Hounds. Wish it was a bit easier for me to get to so I could go more often!

Yeah it's great. H&H + Sunflower Lounge my two favourite venues in Birmingham.

She really won me over when she offered Katie Hopkins outside for a charity boxing fight. I'd dearly love to watch that for all manner of nice moral reasons, as well as pervy ones

ATP:  Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Closer’, Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’, Peggy Lee’s ‘Fever’, ‘Last Night A DJ Saved My Life’ and David Bowie’s ‘Girl Loves Me’ Plus Basement Jaxx and apparently "My Way" (Sinatra)

Does she get a microphone out & sing any herself?

[Festival Liam]

Watching her awkwardly read a list of pre-determined questions to Pussy Riot last year was one of the stranger things I've seen at Glastonbury in daylight hours.

A pop dungeon to finish the festival off sounds right up my street though!

Just a quick hijack of the thread, but I'm keen to see She Drew the Gun on Thursday evening, based on other comments I take it they're likely to be in the tent as opposed to 'down the tunnel'? 

Back on topic: there's nothing wrong with a Charlotte Crush, she's great.

Very much up for seeing these too. Had missed them on the lineup. Thanks for the heads up

No worries, only spotted them this morning myself. Had seen they were playing JP at 11am on Sunday morning but the chances of me making up there at that time of the morning are zero! This works much better.

My understanding is that she sings all of them (which may or may not be a good thing, depending on your point of view!)

I'd take her up the ribbon tower

Am i right in remembering she rather creepily won 'rear of the year' when she'd just turned 16? Think it was one of the red tops that awarded it?

Not sure about that, but there was this stunning display of hypocrisy.

Ahhh thats the one i remember... the 'chest swell' headline rings a bell. 

[shuttlep]

creepy isn't the word. How did they get away with that?

Off subject but do you know a guy called Roland? I'm sure I remember him saying he was involved with the rabbit hole

Guilty? Im not saying sorry for my crush on her.

She supported SFA last year. She could obviously sing, but her voice didn't suit the tunes imo. Did a version of "groove is in the heart"

Ah, I see. To a backing track? I'd like to see her do the NIN one.

From the top of a colleagues Ural which he takes onto site every year. Pussy Riot asked if the were any Russian vehicles on site & his was the largest (only?) one. Definitely a strange, cringeworthy event.
