I have the same problem with Rita Ora and Paloma Faith. And all the young solo male lads in lumberjack shirts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band clearly loved it and the crowd went absolutely mental! That whole night in LV was wicked - Madness awesome set, a throwback female vocal group, Fatboy Slim dressed as a Bee, Suggs compere throughout. Only at Glastonbury.

Only at Glastonbury. It was top notch, it was the first time we really dressed up for an evening at the festival. The atmosphere in the Casino was awesome, the crowd looked awesome, the burlesque was great. It never let up for a solid 5 hours. Really glad we went in early, just after Weller finished on the pyramid IIRC Edited March 25, 2022 by Boomtowner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHew Posted March 25, 2022 Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 Damien Rice in the Leftfield tent sometime in the mid 2000s was one of those secret sets that you just stumble upon. Was bloody good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemosabe Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 Wolf Alice absolutely killed it as the Thursday Williams Green secret set (2015?). My first Glastonbury and the first time seeing them. As others have said Foals were great last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 You know those people that film an entire song on their phone? I'd normally frown on such a thing but one did result in this which conveys the atmosphere really well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was my first Glastonbury and we hadn’t really looked at who it might be, so just turned up and when that curtain dropped to reveal their name it was magical. Yup same for me, one of my favourite bands playing at my first Glastonbury. Perfect storm of them riding the huge comeback hype and putting on an ace show. Never gonna get close to those heights again but they took their chance and smashed it. Wouldn't mind seeing them back on the farm one day as the Other opening act. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, classic Thursday evening of the festival! They were great though, Ellie Rowsell absolutely commanded the stage and the crowd were absolutely electric (as they always are for those williams green secret sets imo).

I got drenched on the way to see Peace and Circa Waves. Got back to the tents after to change into dry clothes and charge my phone quickly, only to see The Libs Instagram post* and have to rush back out. Made it just in time to see the banner come down and the sun shining. Seemed like most of the crowd weren’t into it, but it was a special moment to see them on the pyramid stage. * https://www.instagram.com/p/4ZqtGmCxxZ/?utm_medium=copy_link 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfko Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 Foals last festival were just amazing. Sun was shining and I was three rows from the barriers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alframsey Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 The killers were good or so I’ve heard, I missed them though. Personally the best for me was Pulp up at Park Stage. Absolutely brilliant and with a great crowd with good weather I think (can’t say for certain as my mind is foggy and has a tendency to trick me) and Jarvis was on absolute top top form. I loved The Libertines too but that wasn’t so secret and they are always a bit ropy live. Personally I loved it because I didn’t see them the first time round and I’m a massive fan from my teenage years. Very nostalgic. I’ve not seen any of the others who’ve done one, I didn’t make it to Thom York and Jonny Greenwood because I was dying in bed from bloody herbal highs off one of those stalls haha. I was a young man and took a load of them and felt nothing but sick for almost two days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watergirl Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 Don't think I was ever at one.... I even managed to miss Bruce Springsteen with Gaslight Anthem, and I am a massive Bruce fan. Saw Frank Turner at Strummerville, which was great, but hardly a secret. I guess the Libertines as special guests at the Pyramid counts. Really enjoyed them.

Was my first time coming across him. Huge fan now. He is coming to Ireland next month for three shows, and I'm going to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 Not sure if it counts as was on the line-up, but Guilty Pleasures band opening West Holts in 2007. They had a succession of guests come on and sing covers. The Magic Numbers did either ABBA or Dolly Parton; one of the Marleys did Charles and Eddie; Guy Garvey; Suggs finished it with Love is in the Air. Then it pissed it down for three days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
