In my head, Wolf Alice were going to replace Dua. I just don't think she'll be back on the second stage — and WA are definitely Zoomers/Millennial fodder. That Saturday slot could also be AJ Tracey, if they want some rap in the mix, or a Disclosure/Calvin type pinger-magnet.

Wolf Alice before Billie makes a great deal of sense tbf, and yeah, a WA/QOTSA double would be immense. Hmm.

Hugh Jass, I would like to buy your rock.

I just think QOTSA - Wolf Alice - Pet Shop Boys would be a very un-Other trio based on the last few years…

Unless it’s to balance out a radical Pyramid trio of Eilish - Kendrick - Taylor…

That said, I don't think QOTSA / WA / PSB would be too irregular, would it?

2019: Tame, Chems, C&TQ = major league trippy indie rockers, old man knees-up, mid-2010s breakthrough act (female-fronted)

2016: Disclosure, New Order, LCD = mid-2010s breakthrough act, old man knees-up, major league smarmy indie rockers

2011: Primal Scream, Chems, QOTSA... you see where I'm going with this.

I'd agree that Dua, AJ or another genuine chart-busting act would make more sense to compliment the Other trio in 2022. But if the other stages are being (presumably) stuffed with Biceps, Charlis, Aitches and Bridgerses, the kids will be alright.

The kids can piss off.

I think they will be third down pyramid personally. I don’t know but a sub doesn’t feel quite right. 

Could go either way really, although I could easily see them getting the indie band bump up a-la The National, Vampire Weekend, Tame Impala etc (if Haim aren’t already taking that slot, which they very well might).

Lot of contenders atm for subs/third down it seems so be interesting to see how it all pans out and who ends up just not playing at all.

The one thing I’m thinking about is who could possibly just disappear off the lineup. Noel could be someone who just vanishes if he doesn’t want to commit in uncertainty.

They’d be a great band playing before McCartney - but I’m not too sure they’d get that gig.

I reckon they’ll sub Queens on the Other. That slot just seems perfect for where they are right now.

If we are indeed set for an extremely stacked year then maybe they won’t be on pyramid - but the thought of WA only being an other sub makes me think that things are extremely tight.

Foals subbed Other on Holy Fire. Two Door and Courteeners subbed Other last time out. Bastille and Chvrches (when they were popular) in recent memory too. It’s really not a bad slot for bands in that bucket of acts.

Noel dashed off a greatest hits album last month, I’d be shocked if he wasn’t on the road plugging it next year.

Tbh I think he’l just be back. But we have seen across the board that some acts just aren’t rescheduling all their shows like for like. I’m trying to think who might just vanish from glasto.

He could be an act for Victorious actually but he's not big enough now to play a main slot

Only done it a couple of years back.  Wouldn’t actually surprise me if Liam done it next year (Victorious).

If Noel is touring he’d be perfect for Macca sub

Bollocks!

The other half of Oasis subbed last time. Noel would pull a massive crowd, especially tucked between Aerosmith and Macca.

You're a bit forward there, no need for that shit! 

My point was at Victorious he wouldn't play a headliner I don't think now.

I wasn't questioning him subbing Glastonbury. Though he might the other half, Liam was the voice and he's sold out what he has for that reason.

I've replied to this basically already. I agree with all. Victorious is much bigger now though than when Noel did it, MSP did too and they have subbed and played again lower since. Like Noel, they aren't doing larger arena tours now either.

    • Yes I'm also glad to see more experimental leftfield artists on the line up  Best line up in years 
    • Also Elefant to the Buzz.
    • I've heard him mention Deftones and Biffy as holy grail bookings in the past.   I think given Simon is back again suggests he enjoyed himself last year, not sure if they all still live in the UK so don't know if they'd match the flight thing
    • I refuse to queue for it - usually take an aeropress and some way of heating water but this year I'll be pre making a few bottles of coldbrew and having an iced coffee every morning (if we can get hold of ice, otherwise it'll be a lukewarm coffee) 
    • Himalayan salt lamps are decoration lighting that you may purchase for your house. They are made of pink Himalayan salt and are believed to offer a variety of health advantages. In reality, advocates of salt lamps believe that they can purify the air in your home, relieve allergies, improve your mood, and help you sleep.   Some people claim that Himalayan salt lamps can improve air quality, boost mood, and aid with sleep. However, there is little evidence to support these claimed health benefits.     What Are The Salt Lamps, And Why Are They Used?   Himalayan salt lamps are created by inserting a light bulb into huge chunks of pink Himalayan salt. True Himalayan salt lamps are created from salt collected from Pakistan's Khewra Salt Mine. Salt from this area is thought to be millions of years old, and while it looks quite similar to table salt, the tiny amounts of minerals it contains give it a pinkish hue. Many individuals purchase Himalayan salt lamps because they like the way they look and the peace that the pink light provides in their homes. Meanwhile, some are drawn to their potential health benefits.   How Do Pink Himalayan Salt Lamps Work?   Salt lamps are thought to have health benefits because they are "natural ionizers," which means they change the electrically charged particles of the flowing air. Ions are compounds with an uneven number of protons or electrons, which gives them a charge. They are naturally formed in the air as a result of atmospheric changes. Streams, storms, waves, natural radiation, and heat all generate air ions. They can also be generated artificially using commercially available air ionizers. It is thought that Himalayan salt lamps produce ions by attracting water particles, which evaporate as a salt solution when heated by the lamp, resulting in mainly negative ions. However, this theory is yet to be verified.   Related Topic: Is Pink Salt Better Than Normal Salt? How To Buy Pink Salt In Canada? 8 Benefits Of Pink Himalayan Salt      What Are The Health Claims, And How Do They Measure Up? They enhance the air purity   They are promoted as helpful for persons suffering from allergies, asthma, or respiratory disorders such as cystic fibrosis. There is presently no proof that using a Himalayan salt lamp can eliminate harmful bacteria and enhance indoor air quality. The argument that they are beneficial to persons with respiratory issues may be based on the ancient technique of halotherapy. According to this therapy, persons with chronic respiratory diseases are helped by spending time in saltwater caves since salt is present in the air. Some researchers have found that this approach may be beneficial to specific respiratory disorders, but further high-quality studies are still needed.   Eases Coughing As you are aware, the benefits listed in the previous section highlight the distinct characteristics of Himalayan salt lamps. When these lamps heat up, they emit negative ions that offset the positive ions in our surroundings, resulting in cleaner air quality. This process increases cilial activity in our airways, which aids in the removal substances from the lungs. In essence, Himalayan salt lamps act as natural air filters, promoting general health.   In a nutshell, Himalayan pink salt lamps not only remove impurities from the air but also assist your body filter air more efficiently, making sure any foreign particles you inhale do not enter your lungs.   They can help you sleep   There have been no studies looking into the impact of Himalayan salt lamps on sleep. However, a 2013 study examining the effects of air ionization on relaxation and sleep found no evidence of a positive effect. Thus, even if salt lamps have an effect on the air environment, it is unknown whether this will change sleep patterns. If you replace strong electric lights with a Himalayan salt lamp, the dark light could help encourage weakness near the end of the day. This is because being exposed to bright light before bedtime can cause the sleep hormone melatonin to be produced later.   SUMMARY: Himalayan salt lamps are said to improve air quality, elevate mood, and aid in sleep. However, there is right now insufficient evidence to support these statements.     Do Pink Salt Lamps Provide Any Benefits?   Although some of its health claims have not been verified by science, Himalayan salt lamps may provide additional benefits. This includes: They are attractive: If you like how they look, they could be a good addition to your home. They help to create a soothing atmosphere that allows you to unwind. They may help minimize light in the evening: If you have trouble sleeping, utilizing dim lights in the evening may help you fall asleep more quickly.     Further Ways to Purify Your Home Air   Himalayan pink salt lamps are not the only technique to improve your home's air quality. Pair them with air purifying houseplants or any of these other easy but incredible ways to naturally filter the air in your home, helping you and your family to breathe the healthiest, cleanest air imaginable!     Read More...
