Another O2 date added for June 25th. ( fyi she is going to add the 26th. so now its all going to fall on Friday. She does play 3 gigs in a row on tour so..... ) So Matts dream of her replacing Macca on the Saturday night is officially dead. Fair enough.

Hugh Jass Posted May 27, 2021 Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 The equation looks simple. It’s Kendrick or Billie for the Friday. God I hope it’s Kendrick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same 3, I’d be very surprised if it wasn’t. Maybe a little shake up in subs or maybe Lorde just wasn’t announced last time: Kendrick, Lana Macca, NGHFB, Aerosmith Taylor, Lorde Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could easily see her replacing either LDR or Dua if either of them don’t return. Got a feeling Royal Blood are the third sub.

Hugh Jass Posted May 27, 2021 Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 So her extra UK dates are Saturday and Sunday of Glastonbury. With Paris on the Wednesday before and Belgium on the Tuesday afterwards. It’s a punishing schedule, but then she’s doing six night in a row a couple of weeks before... All eyes on Kendrick now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was a betting man, I'd say a second night in Paris (on the Thursday) looks far more likely than a detour to Worthy Farm. Although probably "neither" is still the favourite.

FloorFiller Posted May 27, 2021 Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 The moment Matt started talking in certainties about her being there should’ve been the dead giveaway that she wasn’t gonna play. Kendrick still firmly in the picture imo. Gonna have a shit hot new album out so I don’t see why he’d not just shift all his festival dates to promote it. Kendrick / Macca / Swift and don’t you just love to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, there’s at least one record in the pipeline and he wasn’t announced for his other Euro festivals this year until reasonably late.

A couple of nights in Paris, hop back to London for two nights, then hop over to Belgium does make more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope it is that trio, because from the looks of it, we wouldn't of had a Kendrick album by last summer or Taylor doing Folklore/Evermore. So to me the 3 were already insane. If Kendricks album is 'good' (of course it will be) its probably gonna be my favourite 3 ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The arena is going to be busy so they had to patch it together. Paris might only have the one night available. Lets just look at it this way, its Friday or bust and the chance is there until somebody signs their contract which apparently hasnt happend yet even though it should have a year ago.

nikkic Posted May 27, 2021 Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 This is too big a tour for a one night swerve to a festival slot that pays pittance. Maybe she’ll do the festival circuit and headline in 2023, but she ain’t headlining next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by her dates she is free on Sunday. She looks to have Thursday, Friday and Monday free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair she only has 1 date rest from most of the 3 date do's. France isn't far away and London and Pilton aren't that far. I wouldn't say it's more than 50/50 now but I wouldn't write it totally off. If she had Friday and Sunday then I would but I'd say if she was doing Friday and Saturday with Sunday free it was more likely. Promoters will want the fresh voice for paid gigs rather than the cheaper gig then two nights. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current thinking is that it’ll be Kendrick, but if for whatever reason he doesn’t sign she’s in place to step in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
