Didn't it used to have another name, like the Red Flag or something?

I hung around in all of them for a while but slowly stopped looking at the others and stayed 'home.

Hmm, another question, I'm not feeling very inspired...

What is the name of the awesome Ale Bar in the Acoustic field? 

The official site was pretty good, because it had Infoman.

[Tranquility of Solitude]

Ok, can’t be bothered thinking too hard.... so in 2019, after a set in the Acoustic tent and a decent ale in The Cockmill, I had a delicious meal from the only food stall between the two.... what did I eat?

[incident]

I'm not going to give the answer because I don't have a question..

But there's two food stalls there..

Oh ok, whoever answers will have to come up with the one I ate at then!

Weren't they some god bothering cult that used to harvest lost souls (and the gullible) at the festival and were subsequently banned?

That's what I thought.

As to the question.  Wasn't there an American Diner (burger bar) and a superb home made cake stall just outside the Acoustic?

[Tranquility of Solitude]

Nobody’s got it so far.... it certainly wasn’t the God bothering cult! Slight clue, they are a Glastonbury staple, and frequently recommended on the food stalls thread here.

I'm not sure whether they ever officially got banned or not - the main accusations against them was that some of their literature was antisemitic and they were last seen around I want to say 2009-10ish.

The cake stall is the most excellent The Cake Hole - highly recommended.

They were definitely there in 2011, I remember retreating there for enormous piece of carrot cake after giving up on U2. Shame about the cult as their food was lovely, presumably aimed at seducing people to the dark side...

Oh bum I have to think of a question now... what brief natural phenomenon accompanied Pharrell's set in 2015?

Nope. It's something not usually seen in daylight.

Got it! There was a short-lived thread about it on here after the festival, so it wasn't just me that saw it 😊

Over to you Stu

Who did I miss most of on the Other Stage when Thom+Jonny played their secret set on The Park

Am I being really stupid in not understanding the question?

no ... I was thinking the same but wasn't brave enough to post as I thought I was being stupid

It might have helped if I got the venue of the secret set right.

So, to rephrase - Thom+Jonny played a secret set at The Park a few years ago.  They clashed with another act on the Other Stage.  Who were this act?
