LAWKS! It’s the Next Announcement Thread 2022!

[Gilgamesh69]

I reckon it's a Kendrick announcement.

[jparx]

I have a feeling it could be something like when LDR was announced. Maybe something like Wolf Alice are subbing the pyramid or something?

[Earth_pig]

It's the Barry Manilow announcement I know it.

[kingbadger]

Imagine it'll be general festival talk, update on a new area or two maybe and a couple of names and confirmation it will be the best one yet. Doubt it'll be much more than that if anything.  

[Florian Saucer Attack]

I've not listened to radio 1 in a long time but I assume they still mostly play scooter and scooter clones. Scooter is playing Belfast on the Saturday so this seems like an ideal opportunity to announce them as Sunday headliners

Yep I’m thinking this too. I think a decent sized act headlining the Other/subbing the Pyramid and some general info on the festival.

@Gnomicide what’s the correlation between the time 7pm and an announcement? 

I've only got times for poster or full line-ups.

I think @crazyfool1may be on to something with the ETC but I also reckon we'll get at least one big name.

If she was just talking ETC I think it would be advertised as such.

She’s gonna talk about the importance of having a strong load of UK acts to book during these times of uncertainty and announce Little Simz amongst a load of general chat about the festival.

Just had a look at your previous posts. You were right about the 2020 headliners in Oct 2019... I think your ITK. 

Edit: just realised we probably already knew the headliners then, but still doesn't seem like a troll to me.

I can’t remember where we were with headliner knowledge for 2020 at that point. Was this one of the first instances of somebody giving us that trio?

They also mentioned Madonna being there which I don’t think was on the cards at all, so I’m gonna proceed with caution…

Harry instead of Macca would be fucking hilarious.

They weren't right about Madonna playing

We were missing a Sunday sub and they mentioned Madonna/Taylor as a co-headliner type deal

Madonna instead of Macca confirmed.

"The biggest new music in the world, including Radio 1’s Hottest Record from Alfie Templeman. Plus Emily Eavis is on to talk Glastonbury 2022."

Yeah. I've just edited my post. It just doesn't seem like an obvious troll, as the account isn't completely new and has claimed links to Macca over 2 years ago so... I'm not sure. I'm probably getting desperate and turning into Matt.

[Divein]

Harry Styles would certainly fit with the radio 1 announce. 
 

But I can’t see him in place of Macca, if Macca is out then but Kendrick is still on there’s no reason for them not to go for the biggest act they can in that Macca slot. 
 

Would make more sense for Harry Styles to be Kendrick’s replacement.

I'm calling bullshit.

Mainly because I don't want to believe it.

^^ I heard similar for 2020. Madonna special guest appearance. Never officially announced and imo the ship has sailed there.

billie - Harry - ????? Kendrick? But where’s the heritage? Oh wait… Stevie Nicks? Could it be? *crosses fingers* scrap that *crosses everything*

Just as long as the festival is going ahead this year all is good
