I may be wrong but I don't think that day had a gold circle. Or rather, it wasn't one you had to pay extra for

This day didnt have a golden circle, but you had to get a wrist band to get into the front bit, which was free, but limited. Was a good system for those who got there early enough. The video doesnt do the crowd justice, but  it was nicecly spaced out.

Let’s get Taylor announced nice and early pls. Feel very confident she will be there since we’ve still not heard about a 2021 tour, she will be gagging to get out there in 2022. Has to be.

I reckon we keep Macca and Taylor, and Kendrick is replaced by someone else.

Yeah Taylor’s gotta be a given and I imagine she and all the festivals she was booked for will try and just copy and paste her 2020 schedule as best they can.

I don't know why he's dropped out of some people's reckoning. I'd have thought he's the most likely out of 2020's headliners (or at least as likely as Taylor)

I guess as each year goes acts like him come closer to retiring or being unable to continue performing, but Macca surely won’t stop until he’s forced to so he must be just as likely as he was to play last or this year.

Blur, Macca, Taylor and the Legend - Diana Ross 

In fact I don't truly I just want to be in that beautiful place surrounded by wonderful people and I'll be so happy. 

That will do me and exactly what I was going to post  👍

I reckon Neil Young will replace Macca if he can't do it (Macca will get first dibs), Taylor is nailed on if she wants it. I personally don't see Blur as the third - great band and the 2009 set was phenomenal (i was there) - but i think there will be a younger, ideally British/Irish, act. First time headliner maybe? Immediately think of 1975 but they are not anyone's fave on these boards, and i cant say I like them. But makes sense. Who else is there?

1975 will be long forgotten in 12 months. Nevermind 18

reckon that 2022 will have the same headliners or new? Feel like theres gonna be more competition for top billing and even undercard. Like big artists are going to be dropping albums throughout this year and next and gagging to be on tour

I think they now increase their chances of Taylor and Macca.. Kendrick will have moved on I figure

It’s almost impossible to predict who’s going to be active next year. Last year’s gig calendar was wiped out, chances are this summer’s will be decimated too.

So you’ll have the 2020 acts and probably those already planning to tour in 21 looking to reschedule for 22. Plus the acts who were already pencilling in 22 plans.

Agree that the original trio will get first refusal but if they don’t come back it’s well and truly anyone’s game at this stage.

    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
