The Young Knives may be used to playing festival crowds of several thousand but they showed they can quite easily turn their hand to playing audiences of only double figures. Thankfully for them the audience of just 25 was nothing to do with no-shows or a terrible double booking with a must-see headliner.

Instead they performing a private show for a small group of Q competition winners in a frankly rather small gazebo set up backstage in the camping area used by our production and reviewing team.

The winners of the competition won a luxury stay on-site – well, as close as it gets to luxury when you consider that as usual Glasto is slightly awash with results of the latest downpour.

Still, they did get brought to the site in a combination of chauffeur-driven car and helicopter which meant they managed to jump the traffic queue which most of the festivalgoers had to endure on arrival, and a stay in a fairly spacious Myhab pod as well as new festival outfits. And their prize was completed with the performance by the Young Knives, fresh from their appearance on the John Peel stage. Frontman Henry Dartnall and bassist Thomas 'The House Of Lords' Dartnall, bemused by and nervous about what could well be the most intimate gig they ever play, performed three songs and one encore for the four lucky winners, including geek rock gems such as Terra Firma and Weekends And Bleak Days (Hot Summer).
