LAWKS! It’s the Next Announcement Thread 2022!

I felt Fonatines were a possible JP headliner so my chances of catching them has slightly increased if that Jamie T info is accurate!

Yeah we couldn't get anywhere near the tent for that.

Ended up walking back to watch CATQ.

They really should have swapped them round on the stages.

100%.

CATQ was pretty sparse.

Fingers crossed its Saturday 

I can just see them putting him on a Sunday as a 'guitar music' alternative to Kendrick

Yeah maybe - I'm back to thinking that might be Fontaines on the Park though.

Neil was told he's playing JP, though he's unsure if it's true or not.

Just before the mainstage headliners start. We saw Billy Bragg then walked over for Tame Impala last time. 

Great, thats a game changer, two headliners in one night, Billy bonus .

[Ayrshire Chris]

One things for sure, as usual there will never be a time all weekend when you might have nothing you want to see. Clashes will be absolutely everywhere. There’s going to be a lot of serious negotiations going on with Mrs c over the next few weeks! 

[chazwwe]

Fontaine's as Park Saturday. Charli on John peel, Saturday Jamie t on jp Sunday. Makes a lot of sense. I think you would need another guitar band on the Sunday otherwise Jamie will be packed.

[coma girl]

Jamie T has said there will be tour dates out soon, I was thinking he might pop up at Glasto with a secret set but playing JP would be a great come back IMO

I think Caribou is nailed on for that Park Saturday slot

I suspect it may be one of the few times I don't see Billy, I think it might have to be Paul Heaton this time instead.

Seen this a few times - is there any actual info or is it just efests collective wisdom? I really hope not.

[K2SO]

Oh I really hope Charli is on Sunday. There's only 5 acts I definitely want to catch over the weekend; Billie, Macca, Confidence Man, Kurupt FM and Charli.

For some strange reason, I still don't feel excited for the festival and that's just felt like a kick in the nuts if Charli is on Saturday

We know he's Saturday and he was on the Park for 2020 so seems likely he'll have stayed there. He could sub it, maybe.

The Who's Playing What Day thread has ruled Chali out for Friday so you've got a 50/50 chance as it stands

Yeah I had tickets for her gig on that Friday, not realising the dates. It's a Banquet show, so we assumed it was going to be happening last month when the album was released. Very annoying.

I'm going to be devastated if she clashes with Macca. My girlfriend loves Charli and will go and watch her over literally anything... I really don't want to watch things without her or leave her on her own, but I also don't want to miss my chance to see Macca.

Let me introduce you to my rules for deciding on a clash:

1. Have I seen them before?
2. Would I pay to see them on their own terms?

If the answer to both for one artist is yes, go for the other one. If the answer is no for both go and see that one. If you have the same answer for both artists it's a coin flip or how you feel on the day.

From what you've said, it sounds like if the worst happens - both go and see Macca. Charli will have a full blown tour soon, will return to Glasto and will be going for a lot longer that Sir Paul has left.

[Junglist1981]

Yeah but what if his Mrs really doesn't wanna go see Macca? 😁

Honestly if you bot want to do different things, do different things. Arrange a meeting point afterwards and discuss what a great time you both had. If one of you goes to an act you don't want to be at it will just annoy you.

Getting ready for the Charli on Saturday scenario by looking at some of the longest headliner sets recently, The Boss and The Stones. Both started an hour and 15 minutes before the JP headliner did, so could be an hour at the Pyramid then move.

Lorde or Doja cat are most likely headlining the other which would make Charli XCX more likely for the Sunday
