The churnups

[CaledonianGonzo]

It's a guarantee that whoever it is they came up with the name The Churnups in a moment of whimsy and probably haven't given it a second thought since.

Naturally it's everyone else that's gonna overthink it.

Yeah as I explained above that, I don't doubt pulp are playing in some capacity but unsure whether they are The Churnups...

So if it DID turn out that both Pulp and Foos have secret slots, that really would be quite something… perhaps even unprecedented for secret appearances? Anyone recall a year that could compare?

2011 had Pulp and Radiohead.

To add fuel to the fire, Google Absolute Radio Churnups and it shows this. I can't open the link though.

I mean, the obvious thing is the festival is on a dairy farm and this is a play on turn up, the name probably has nothing to do with any band at all.

I'd f**king love Pulp but its clearly Foos, so much info points to it

would love to be wrong

Well as long as I find out before wasting an hour or more to see the start of someone i’m not interested in seeing, i’m happy to play it by ear until then…

Doesn't compare though, Pulp and Foos are a streets ahead combination. I'll be wherever, if both secrets set come through however.

Have we gone away form the RHCP idea?

If you search “the churnups open their” on twitter you get a tweet from the Glastobation account. Sadly just a fan account hoping for the Foo’s, not evidence.

👍 Saw Radiohead but missed Pulp that time. Don’t remember as much hype in 2011 but that may just be me!

Remember that 2011 was before Radiohead sh*t the bed. Once you factor that in, it's about the same level.

Last show June 16th. Can you see them hanging about for a week to play a low paying show in a slot that is arguably higher than they'd have been given if announced properly?

[briddj]

I do now agree that "The Churnups" means absolutely nothing with regards to the band, and is purely just a nod to it being on a dairy farm.

I'm in the space where if its Pulp or Foo's I'll be happy. 

Would rather it be Pulp as I've not seen them yet.

If its truly a secret until the day I'll be more than happy to stand through an hour to get that surprise feeling.

The only issue would be loads of disappointed people if it is Pulp, because I imagine there'll be people there expecting the likes of the 1975. I'd prefer to know also

We have the pyramid from Flea and my random spot of RHCP in the Churnups... beyond that nothing at other than in Europe and free. Blur are equally the same we have a link to Cheese and the fact they are now free. Foos potential hotel thing but last year we had the same from Eminem out of Bristol (which I heard from locals also) so not necessarily on that train but the Churn band link is possible.

Otherwise, its Pulp and the denial from Nick does not dent the chances, and not a perfect word play but enough to cause this thread!

You think there’d be loads of disappointed people if it was Pulp instead of the 1975?! Eh?

Thanks, That's very well summed up, so good in-fact it should be Pinned to the top of the tread 👏
