Janet is currently the highest rated female artist on Pitchfork, leaving behind artists like Kate Bush, Björk and PJ Harvey.

Janet Jackson 8.2
Sade 8.1
Kate Bush 8.1
Janelle Monáe 8.1
Robyn 8.0
Solange 8.0

The average score of other female artists is below 8.0

Not sure this is true? FKA Twigs has an average of 8.4 so not sure where you're getting these figures from?

who's controlling that b-i-t schedule? I thought anyone could enter them?

You cannot edit the schedule. The artist puts the information to the site. Janet is on Saturday. She has her own page to edit and post as well as update her schedule (probably done by her team). It has to be enough to confirm her Saturday.

I much prefer the idea of Janet tirelessly slogging away on her laptop updating and editing all her online touring schedules...and then photoshopping the line up poster for LOLs on her Instagram.

I’m not sure if it’s been mentioned elsewhere already but she’s playing Montreux Jazz Festival on the Sunday so Saturday seems pretty certain now.

Am I misremembering or was Elton down for Sunday of this festival, as well as Saturday? The chief reason he was ruled out. Free as a bird Sunday, looking at that announcement! :lol:

I just checked and it's true. However, have in mind that they didn't rate Janet's albums they are prising the most, "Control" and "The Velvet Rope," yet, they reviewed one of her weakest albums, "Damita Jo."

the info on it being wu-tang should be solid.

The Sun seemed to report she’d be on West Holts and delete it, so I’ve stumbled upon on Google via one of these spammy sites that copy Sun articles. At a guess they might have taken it down cos it was incorrect but not sure why they’d have put that in at all. Thought I’d mention...

like anything, that might be right. What I think I know is only as good as the info I get.

But I'd be particularly surprised if it was, as the Wu-tang info came from a source who's only ever been 100% correct over a few years now.

Yeah I’m definitely not expecting her to play it - just a thing I came across that might be interesting to people.

The Sun did initially say that she was Sunday iirc - which is definitely wrong, whatever stage - so wouldn’t be inclined to believe they have a solid scoop.

    • I'm British so it very much would apply for me.   I mean, it's a moot point as I don't have tickets so will not be in town for this, but I've heard reports of lengthy queues and given I remember Lisbon Airport having a long queue at arrivals even pre-EES when I went in 2023, I seem to guess it might be quite the wait, depending on flight paths.   Certainly, the worst I've had pre-EES was a 45 minute wait for a stamp at Valencia Airport in Spain, where 4 flights to non-EU destinations in quick succession were placed one after the other. So I can't say I'm enthusiastic about what's in store. Or you know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
    • Out of interest keep seeing messages saying last 12 hours etc… to buy you full weekend tickets.  Whats that about? Do they take them off sale early?
    • I reckon it'll be deftones and Biffy clyro 
    • If Friko are replacing The Beths that's a very rare example of a band being replaced by another band who I'm equally eager to see. Great news.
