Fair enough, hopefully they will get a chance to absolutely smash it sometime (downvoting negative opinions about Guns n Roses doesn’t make you much better!)

I get it not being for everyone, but ‘total dog shit’ is a bit far - it’s bloody catchy to me. And they put on a hell of a show.

That BMTH is on their current merch too, I can’t see them doing a throwback set - especially for one of their biggest shows to date.

I believe she’s just in the video for that, but has proper vocal features in Jesus Christ 2005 and Playing On My Mind.

Bridgers already had two vocal features on their last album without any proper credit! Neither did Cutty Ranks or Greta Thunberg either.

Falling In Reverse are pretty big now, at least in the US. Their 2019 single ‘Popular Monster’ has racked up 212m streams on Spotify, with the single from earlier this year ‘Zombified’ not far off 45m.

'About You' appears to be taking off on TikTok, and charted at #63 this week.

Do you remember any other names from it?

Yeah, or subbing main stage perhaps. He’s at a similar size to Anne-Marie right now for sure, but doesn’t have the same amount of hits as her.

Yeah, Tom Grennan absolutely isn’t a headliner.

The likes of Mabel, Tom Grennan, Lewis Capaldi, Sigrid, Becky Hill, Griff etc have been booked in recent years - and they’re no different from George/Harry, albeit no headliners like that though.

I agree, but the previous info I've had came from the same person! I have no idea really how they know the others, I guess information just gets passed around the industry.

as well as Polo G subbing last year and The 1975 stepping in to headline this year 😉

Stone have unsurprisingly unfollowed The Skinner Brothers haha and their guitarist doesn’t seem to be too happy about it! - https://twitter.com/Iwtism/status/1584194342000136192?s=20&t=gXU1D_7KZiQ-taN0z2M4NQ

Christ. The stuff he posts on TikTok is pretty cringy too.

I saw The Skinner Brothers support Kasabian, they were incredibly cringey and the crowd just weren’t up for them. This review didn’t help my judgement either, strange lot - https://mancunion.com/2022/03/29/serenas-shambolic-night-with-the-skinner-brothers/

The UK charts don’t count radio play FWIW.

It doesn’t really make much difference, but as you count ‘Obey’, you may as well count KSI & Yungblud’s ‘Patience’ which reached #3.

They opened with Too Shy at Reading/Leeds this year and that definitely worked!

Stormzy has a new album out next month, lead single yesterday is quite good. Could we see him back for 2024? Although interestingly it's not performing as well as his previous music, it's only at #12 on Spotify today so it could quite easily miss the Top 10. Comparing it to his last lead single, Vossi Bop, which went straight to number 1 with huge numbers - it's a big drop off.

They performed Roadkill for the first time last night, so I imagine that’ll stay.

not that it’s much better, but it’s sexual assault he’s been accused of rather than rape.

I’m still expecting that pint you promised when he is announced!

And a press release from Blink-182 says that they’ll be headlining When We Were Young 2023 alongside Green Day.

To be fair, Green Day have been teasing a new album/project called ‘1972’ for a while now. I’d be surprised if it’s not out sometime next year. KSI is the definite one for me though, I doubted it myself but he was absolute about it. And tbh it does make sense for him, as much as I don’t rate his music.
