Stage Predictions 2022: For real this time

I mean we only had Camilla for that in 2020 and she definitely wasnt getting that big of a slot.

Lots of people are competing for Other Sub (Sam Fender, Wolf Alice, AJ Tracey, Jorja Smith, Glass Animals?, Jamie XX?) and she seems like a nobrainer for a mid-afternoon pyramid slot.

We were still missing a sub and a third down on the Sunday. So hard to bench it off 2020.

Ah you know, Jorja and Jamie are big ones missing. Good shout @Mattymooz

Jamie’s got a new album this summer co-produced by Fred Again which will invariably have hits. Jorja feels overdue a key slot. They could be WH headliners, top 3 Other, mid-afternoon El Pointo (Jorja), closing down JP (Jamie)… all sorts.

Jorja had a pretty big slot in 2019, my thoughts would be she would miss the next festival and probably come back for an even bigger slot in 2023. I have her pencilled as a 2023 other headliner tbh.

Also I think Gayle’s stuff is quite cool but she doesn’t seem to be exploding in the way that Billie and O Rod did. I think Gayle will have a slower burn.

Gayle is destined for the John Peel stage surely? I keep catching her stuff on playlists on Spotify.

Yeah I assume so she has a tour which runs up to May.

Putting a hybrid of mine and @Ddiamondd’s prediction in poster format gets me excited. 

I moved Dua and Harry up into the top line bucket but it was difficult to format it and make it look pretty. So I put the rest of the subs up there to balance it out. 

Really have a hunch that Harry is happening and I reckon if he was bunched with the headliners on the poster like they do sometimes his team would be fine with it. The reason why I really think it’s him is current predictions are missing a big pyramid (non-headlining) pop name that the festival always gets. Think Miley, Katy Perry, Janet etc.

February let’s go!!!

 

edit: ffs forgot HAIM

 

Looking good! No Michael Kiwanuka? Kae Tempest?

Edit: really hope if Anderson Paak shows up he does so with Bruno Mars as Silk Sonic.

MK takes quite big slots now doesn’t he? I can’t really agree on where he would go. My thoughts are that he’s a 2023 act.

Mid-afternoon Pyramid for him next I'd say.

I think we’ve managed to predict the pyramid tbh aside from a few acts here and there. I don’t think he will be on the pyramid this year. Think he’s a 2023 act.

It's all just predictions until the line up drop.

I think there's more to point to him being there than not, we'll see I guess.

I’d say he’s played in 2019 and 2016 I think he will probably be politely left off in 2022 for 2023.

Pierce "63 Monthly Listeners" O'Brien is not opening the Pyramid.

Just in case anyone hasn't been on that thread and realises this is a joke.

I’m the real Pierce O’ Brien & I’ve got the best tunes since Oasis & The Stone Roses in Manchester I’ll have the crowd at Glastonbury bang up for the other acts as soon as the offer comes through from Emily & Michael Evis praying they give me a slot got the best tunes in the world right here right now which is all that matters just need a break 👊👊👊

You know what Hugh, the only thing about this site that is tedious is you. You act as if you're above everyone else on here, talking down any poster that is trying to have a laugh when it doesn't fit your humour. Why don't you try the ignore button for size you monumental bellend.

@Somto Unigwe Raphael

Genuine question… what exactly is going on here? You and your mate and all these wacky new accounts that have sprung up recently…

Are they just you two over and over again? Is it just you talking to yourself? Or is it all your mates back after the last time you were all banned?

I’m genuinely curious to know what the game is here.

I take it back, Pierce. Best of luck to you.

Its actually making me not want to participate. Feels like a bunch of kids with alt accounts have been in here the past few weeks.

Yeah I think it’s the same bunch from a couple of years ago who were all banned. Gucci Piggy I think was the ringleader last time.
