I got the Event Not Found page at 10.40 on the dot.

On the other hand, all the folk who squeaked in at the last minute (myself included) maybe only got lucky cos a large % bailed after See tweeted the sellout

By the skin of our teeth - last minute of extra time. How about you guys?

Plenty of casualties in our group. Real mixed emotions vibes.

Anyway, as is traditional:

The lesson today is not to give up when there's a Sold Out message. Got mine at about 25 past ten.

Not next year. If you read back the main Lizzo thread which was updating in real time during G19 you will see people losing their marbles and a lot of people saying she'd be an absolute shoo-in as a headliner. Nothing much has changed since then in principle and she's racked up a couple of other big tunes..... but I don't think the balance has quite tipped in terms of making her a natural choice. That said - - people are wanting wildcards. And if the Eavii were so out of options as to give it to her she wouldn't phone it in.

Dua won't be planning a larger tour for next year, but who knows - like an Adele or a Stormzy she'll know the gravity / magnitude of the offer and maybe pull together a one off show for it?

Maybe contradicting himself then. The original post was re. Swizzle dropping out - but it must have bitten the dust when the first Headliners 2023 thread was deleted.

Good or bad, his info specifically d@bbed down T-Swift.

But it's edgy!

Lizzo's smart enough of a cookie to realise how big a deal her G19 show was in terms of a career boost in the UK. Doing it as a one-off isn't outwith the realms of the possible.

Can't stress enough how getting Lizzo in a prominent position will be a win for G23.

Picking Nick Cave up and playing him like a flute.

Following Miley Cyrus.

I can see it. Instead of an evening of a woman killing it, an evening about killing women.

That causes the plot to thicken.

Which settler-colonial projects currently occupy the lands that used to be Iraq and Afghanistan? I'll happily boycott them too.

Yeah - no argument there. The t-shirt is obviously indefensible, but I dunno if it's much worse than the 'I'm Black and Blue For The Rokling Stones' ads of the 70s. Although knowing Mardy's feelings on the Stones I'm just proving his point 😃

I hadn't even seen that!
