Grateful Ghoul Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 After looking at the size of the crowd for Dubstep Beatles it seemed quite bizarre that there were only couple of hundred old school ravers enjoying a 4 hour Orbital secret set on the Glastonbury On Sea pier Thursday night. It was one of my highlights and much love to anyone that was there. WhatsApp Video 2023-06-30 at 21.26.08.mp4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no queue! We actually went on there because it was so quiet! As we came up, the security guard said "orbital are playing at the bottom" like he was trying to alert people to make sure they knew it was a special occasion. Was good 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yatesy1983 Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Yes this was much quieter than it deserved to be, brilliant start to the festival. Good to know this kind of thing can still happen. Him playing Belfast first fell like a call to arms. I think Phil quite enjoyed the low key feeling of it all. His set on the Bimble Inn was ace too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyRaver Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 Not really an Orbital set, given half of them weren’t there - and that the missing one is the widely perceived creative force. And it was just a dj set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gigpusher Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 Great to hear Glasto can still pull off a truly secret set without it being mobbed. Hope those who were there enjoyed the experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Paul Hartnoll so not really an Orbital DJ set. I was there too from the beginning but had to leave after an hour as I had a night shift starting at 10pm, had a nice cone of candy floss to enjoy with the music though.

Woody-Club UK Posted July 3, 2023 Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 Bollocks! Would have loved to have stumbled upon that, and we never actually went on the pier as it was normally really busy. Also at the time we weren’t anywhere in particular, just bimbling about. Although wandering aimlessly around in the evenings is one of our favourite things to do at Glastonbury, you never know what you’re going to find and who you’re going to meet it’s just a shame that we didn’t happen upon that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalifire Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Brilliant! So not even the Secret Glasto feed (which has become a contradiction in terms) knew about it? Old school. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Was anyone else at the Ezra Collective secret set at West Holts Bar on Thursday, that one seemed to go under the radar. We only saw it because we were there for the act before and they hinted at something coming up after them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
