Secret sets 2022

[Jack.194]

Looks like there’s two main secret sets, JP and The Park - who do we think they could be?

[MrRadioactiveCake]

Jack White for Park, Paulo/Kasabian for JP?

jp is almost certainly paulo nutini.

park could be anybody right now. arcade fire / florence / jack white / harry styles / 1975

[Crouchinho76]

Maybe Shame to play Williams Green?

The writing's on the wall here - waiting for Arctic Monkeys to walk out on Park - someone else walks out, followed by a mad dash to catch the back end of the Bootleg Beatles.

It's got Daft Punk/Chase & Status gate (2013) written all over it.

Is it just me or does Paolo on the JP feel like a total let down? Is he even relevant anymore, let alone for a secret suprise? I was at the Killers in 2017 and Foals at the Park in 19, seems like a bit of a downgrade!

[fightoffyour]

Yeah Paolo would be a massive let down when we're hoping for Arcade Fire

Secret sets all depend on acts actually wanting to do them, and unfortunately they can’t always get huge, headliner sized acts to want to do them for the minimal fee they no doubt pay.

Paolo is still a big deal, albeit not as big as those other acts, and he’ll pull (and keep) a huge crowd regardless.

It is a total let down, yes.

Following another user's point on another thread about LCD Soundsystem being in country in June, I'll be praying to Jesus, Mary, Joseph and associated farmyard animals for this to come to pass.

Praying with you there @rubick. I was so sure I'd see them on the lineup given the proximity to their 6 day run at the O2 in Brixton!! I'd lose my s**t if they appeared.

So boring. Of all the artists currently touring right now, why three you could see literally anywhere else as a surprise act. 

[AlexOvd]

As first timer, how really secret sets are? Do we have any idea few days before the festival or it's just showing up there and see?

Not all thaaaat secret, really.  Most you've got a pretty good idea of a couple days out.  Worst case, morning of.  Just follow secretglasto on Twitter, and you'll be good.

Certainly agree with the Paolo consensus here. Very underwhelming as a surprise.

Alan Morris's tour dates leave her free for Sunday. Would fit in nicely in the park.

Still think an Elton guest spot with Macca is on the cards.

Yep I think I've known about every (major) secret set in the Twitter era to be honest, and have been able to plan accordingly. 

[Leyrulion]

Just noticed the rabbit hole have two "un-birthday" suprise acts on the Friday and Saturday nights.

[09matthewsw]

A big nod towards Harry Styles on the JP (STYLES)? They are the act before so would likely know. Or are they on a wind up? I would much rather it was Paolo Nutini 

[maelzoid]

^ Jools Holland surely?

I imagine it is a wind-up but good spot!

[northernringo]

For those looking at it confused (like me)...

Squeeze Though. You'll Like it, Everyone Says

[Brunty9]

Harry is in Germany Sunday night....

So he is. Rules him out of both the Sunday slots then. Wind up confirmed. Cheers 

[Supreme2]

They also put this on their insta!

[Acid Loafers]

Just noticed that "Miserably Dressed" is not on the line-up/timetable 🤔

 

[FloorFiller]

Haha some good trolling from Sports Team there, isn’t hope it doesn’t backfire on them with their set filled with soon to be furious Harry Styles fans.
