Exactly it’s really odd, if NBT open the other stage for the equivalent of two sets it works that they can alternate all the way up

Well they were down to play the other stage originally, so there must be a reason for the change

Yh maybe

 

Kasabian as a trio secret set?

[A1997]

I hope it’s bmth

Their tour starts a few weeks after and Oli has been making appearances with Yungblud recently

[OnlyRevolutions]

Definitely reaching here, mostly just to throw another name into the mix; with Jxdn, MGK, Yungblud and KennyHoopla on the line-up who all have ties to Travis Barker and have all been bringing him out to shows in the US, would it be possible for it to be Blink-182?

He did tweet 'I might fly again' the other month so you never know, would love to see it even though i'm not the biggest Blink fan

I'm not sure they're big enough for a main stage secret set. If it was Radio 1 secret set maybe, but im expecting a band that fills arenas.

IDLES, the band who sold out Ally Pally and have sold out 4 nights at Brixton Academy (amongst a bunch of other UK dates), not big enough for a Main Stage secret set?

They sold out Ally Pally with ease and have sold out 4 nights at Brixton Academy which is about the same as O2 arena. They are pulling arena numbers already.

Lazy research on my part, i just checked their current tour and saw Brixton as the big London show.

[m4tt]

Anyone else noticed that the Pit only has 11 bands booked and Lock up has 12.......

I assume we're not expecting another announcement... secret set?

BMTH is the only option then, assuming theyre classed as Arena fillers.

Its gonna be the Vaccines though

[Dukey]

Wouldn’t be half surprised if there are 3 secret sets - The Pit, Main and Festival Republic maybe

Yea I would love the Vaccines, something tells me it’s too good to be true though

Vistas touring with Circa Waves right up until the festival starts, could they be the secret set?

[Brandohoff]

Circa Waves I mean not Vistas, my bad: if Vistas are already there on Thursday and touring with them then they could play too?

Yeah, three bands pulled out, Ho99o9, Spiritbox and Cleopatrick, but they only replaced them with two. Loathe and Holding Absence.

Frank Carter in the pit then?

[Andre91]

The Vaccines taking to the Main Stage unannounced and would be bloody brilliant.

Yes and please

[Paulmcm1998]

Does anyone think Foals could be the secret set? They play the festival regularly and they've been playing new music on their tour could make sense with a single release on the same day.
