You’re all at it now! Great news 😀 Need Macca confirmed asap, don’t want to have to delete my set list play list for the third year in a row!

I'm going for Macca this week/early next and then Kendrick revealed on the poster last week of Feb, as he was in 2020.

Sunak’s getting his ducks in a row. Yahoo are saying he “accidentally attended” Boris’ birthday party. Or, he knows a photo of him is about to drop and he’s getting in front of it. That guy is going to make Johnson look harmless when he takes over…

Aye, seems very unlikely those sources would be wrong. If Joey hadn't heard the same info very recently, you could argue Neil's info might end up being dated. Feels like some major turbulence would be needed behind the scenes now for those two not to be headlining (which of course can happen, especially this year).

Aye, and in all three cases (with Macca in 2019/20) the act headlined the followed year instead of when the strong rumours came out the year before. Maybe Kendrick does 2023 instead and he’s another to add to that list, but I doubt it!

When was the last time we had well sourced headliner info that fell through? Macca in 2019? The biggest hurdle with Taylor is that we need the info to be wrong/become dated AND Taylor needs to come flying in out of nowhere. If Kendrick or Macca aren't there, we're looking at a fairly bog standard backup I think, not something as massive as Taylor. I want to keep the dream alive (although tbf I want to see Kendrick and Macca almost as much as Taylor anyway...) but I can't see anything other than Taylor topping 2023 with a career spanning, greatest of all time level set.

Suddenly makes Glastonbury look like the hottest ticket in the world, frankly.

Taylor was Sunday. We have no dates for Macca and Kendrick as well, so from that POV they're all even. The info from Neil and Joey seems pretty strong though, and now we have Billie for Friday it does make Taylor look very unlikely. It'd be an Aguero moment at this point if we end up getting Taylor back on the Sunday...but hey, I thought there was no chance we'd have the Aguero moment at the time, so who knows.

Thing is with Kendrick is that he didn’t look likely for 20 or 21, when we had rumours to say he was doing it, and then he announced dates pretty late in the day that brought him right in the picture. Yeah he’s running out of festivals, but maybe he’s just doing his own tour and a couple festivals here and there? We’ve been here before and the rumours were right, so I still expect him to be on the Farm.

We're after some new staff at work, might drop Macca a line.

Anyone else who wilfully spreads lies that can literally kill people?

They don't like Billie because she relies on a co-writer.

Blimey. Just looked up her setlists and yeah, very short. Felt sure she'd pad it with some covers or unreleased tunes. Doesn't look like she's done a "proper" tour yet though, might get some more meat on the bones by the time she hits the road. With the year she's had though, turning up playing 7 songs is probably fine though!

Ah, he's the one we need right now. Adele jokes aside, get him subbing Macca 😂

It's always a bit alarming when some miserable old bloke starts bleating about cancel culture. Almost as if they're trying to get their defence in order before something incriminating leaks out. They need to realise cancel culture is A) mostly a creation by the far right as a defence for being a horrendous person and a weapon in their culture war and B) being held accountable is not a new phenomenon brought on by social media. Being held accountable for being a twat or saying something that upsets a large group of people isn't a new thing (Beatles and Jesus..? Arguably it's less intense now since Swifties won't go burning copies of Parklife) and it's becoming a crutch for people to come out with ridiculous and offensive hot takes to get back in the limelight.
