A Patti Smith or an Iggy Pop. At least 2 of those - Burt and John - were booked really late on and so wouldn't have made the cut for a poster this morning. Burt wasn't on the initial poster due to the late booking, and while John was in the days when the lineup came out 4 weeks beforehand, he ended up playing way lower than sounds credible due to everywhere being full - second from top on the Jazz World.

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 Isleys bit the dust a while back. They rearranged their tour for 2021 but then it got canned again for good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like the complete surprise act was missing this year, no Katy Perry type act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghandi Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 I know this is just 80 acts but thought Rag n Bone man would be on the first poster. * apologies if this has been said already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the lack of surprises just mean we’re getting better at this? There was barely a single name on that poster that hadn’t already been analysed and discussed to death.

Lots of people here seem to have insider knowledge these days, so between that and piecing things together through tour dates maybe the days of the "out of nowhere" act are gone?

admscott Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 3 hours ago, Quark said: Would any of them have made the poster do you reckon? No great surprise not to see them listed (no offence @admscott😄) I'm on the poster. It's just that the text is the same colour as the background. Stupid design decision, imo.
