2022 Headliners

[SwedgeAntilles]

Yeah, happy with how this had panned out. Had nothing I fancied on the Sunday previously, whereas Friday was strong across the board. Agree with Hugh about being soured to QOTSA, hopefully something good pops up on WH, JP or The Park and I'm sorted for the weekend.

Got to be Dua vs Macca right? It’s unusual to have two contemporaries on at the same time so Dua against Kendrick and especially Billie doesn’t make sense. 

I dont think they would put female vs female, they try to avoid that sort of thing especially pyramid vs other. But lets put it out there for arguments sake that Dua wasnt able to perform any day except Saturday, what can you do about it? Because Kendrick has an almost zero chance to close out.

Oh marvellous 

Billie, Kendrick, Paul is great for me even if Swift is very much missed.

No interest in Billie or Kendrick personally, but huge bookings. Hoping for something like Bicep against one of them.

 

so are we thinking Billie, Kendrick, Macca in that order? Or is Paul coming back for Saturday night?

What's going on with QOTSA? Hard to keep up with all these revelations coming out re: various different acts.

Is there more to this statement or is it just that the headliners are meh to you?

Stuff about Homme being abusive towards his kids and them getting restraining orders or some such against him. All very ‘bad break up’ regarding him and Brody, but the kid stuff is rather hard to get around if it’s true.

Give me Bicep on WH on the Friday and next year is shaping up nicely! 

With Macca closing it out, I'll see my first Sunday night Pyramid headliner in my tenth year - happy with that.

Josh is in a custody battle right now with Brody. And their kids have reported that Josh has abused them and is very controlling. One of them spoke out about it so its lead to some other inquiries. Mind you thats happening in my at the same time Britney is getting her freedom. Los Angeles courts get all the cases.

Send you the best Neil. Thank you for all of the work you do with this site and keeping us in the loop with the best rumours despite your personal circumstances.

This comes full circle with Swift and Elton being two of the headliners in 2023.

Don’t you dare get a ticket and I don’t!

Fair enough Neil, sorry to hear that. Thanks for all of your work here. We’d be lost without your  rumours to discuss! 
 

Edit: pretty much what Matt said better above!

Ok now I’ve come around a little to no Swift.

Billie - getting her at her peak of her career so far. 

Kendrick Lamar - On a year where he is playing the SUPER BOWL alongside a long overdue follow-up to DAMN.

Paul McCartney - Fantastic to get him back and will go down a treat.

It’s an unreal trio of headliners which… I highly doubt any other festival on earth could secure. Good stuff! Sad I won’t be crying to all too well in a pyramid field next summer but there is always 23!

Had we not had Taylor announced for 2020, I'd consider this a top tier set of headliners. There's obviously a huge amount of disappoint losing her, but I'm still very excited for Billie and I'll be at all three of them. Can't really argue with it - three massive bookings.

[Earth_pig]

I think I will be at Paul and find alternatives for the rest, exploring the other stages is important so I’m fine with it.

Ah yep psbs we’re against Taylor I remember now …. So that’s a clash sorted … although I think Taylor was edging it … 

Same clash I had but now resolved. 
 

I always thought Elton was next year.

I wonder if there is any chance of a Dre guest appearance next year? Dre's said that the Superbowl performance will instigate the "next saga" of his career, whatever that means. If it indicates more live performances, bring it on!

Early 2023 prediction: Foo Fighters / Relton / Taylor?

Still a bit early for the Foos I’d say.

Replace them with Arctic Monkeys would be my guess.

All for us to get excited about. Dre turning up would be nuts.

I made a 2023 thread lol. I put Radiohead, Elton, Taylor but Foos would make equal sense as I imagine they are desperate to come back.
