Saw Ice Cube and Cypress Hill at the O2 last night - both very very good, the latter especially. Would love to see either on the farm. Think Cypress definitely a little more family friendly!

Cypress Hill were fun at Boomtown this year.

Mmm, tended to be the Newbys on the scene. Quite precocious. (Although thats unfair cos Steriophinics were lovely and at the same time new!) The more experienced,  the nicer they were. Can't name. Not huge fan of Spice Girls (they were to be fair being worked very hard and tired, I assume..) and Finlay Quay though. Just cos. Most were fine. Doing their jobs. Shane McGowan though, well, that was an experience. Twice. 2 Christmas TV episodes. 97 and 98 I think. I was staggered he lived so long. Bless the man. 

I went to school with Finlay. He was a berk back then too.

Too much to say that's Alvvays ruled out? Surely going into Europe and back for the Sunday is just wishful thinking

Yeah, definitely out - I mentioned it somewhere up the thread but after Japanese Breakfast tried to do Siren’s Call and Glastonbury Sunday this year and turned up too late to get her kit loaded in on Sunday morning, I can’t see anyone else risking it again

[Colorblindjames]

Nah I’d say that’s Sunday guaranteed. They aren’t taking 3 days to get from Luxembourg to Paris.

Will we get the line-up before end of January? I'm desperate...

We have no idea, although probably unlikely we’ll be getting the full lineup that early - maybe one headliner announced.

Cause Emily mentioned that hopefully they will announced the whole line-up in the early 2024.

[CaledonianGonzo]

More like March or April

[Gnomicide]

I reckon a little earlier than usual. I know when Emily says "soon" it can mean months away but "beginning of the year" doesn't sound like March/April.

I don't think it'll be that long this time, haven't they usually announced something by now?

I reckon apart from the potential big headliner she is on about, we could have it by February....poster wise anyway.

I think a lot depends on the Madonna situation. Will she be announced for BST and have sold it out by the end of February? Would they release the first poster without her? That's of course if she commits to either. 

I'm thinking March for the poster, with or without Ms Ciccone.

World of difference between "I'd like to" and "I will"

[Crazyfool01]

I’m clinging onto sometimes we will do something before Christmas ….. she’d better get a move on 

[Sitruc97]

Turnstile active in Europe June/July, would love for them to come back, for sure in my top 3 sets of 2022.

Probably too late to have something announced this close to Christmas isn’t it? And then usually the first two-three weeks at the start of the year is usually a no go for announcements. Someone might be able to prove me wrong on this complete assumption though.

That’s correct barely anything in jan . And I’m really not expecting anything before Christmas now … just grasping hopelessly at straws 

[foolee]

Feel like this could be top two other stage one of the days.

Nicki Minaj could be quickly heading towards a GSH... 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Fits the bill as a big female American act....

[FloopFiller]

Parklife or Wireless for Nicki surely. Only chance of her showing up at Glastonbury is maybe popping up with Madonna or something, but even then their song was kinda sh*t so who even wants that. 

[Drinky]

Calvin Harris on manoeuvres in Luxembourg the week after (plus more Sam Smith and… ok Scorpions are not going to turn up at Glastonbury)

[The Nal]

Isnt that idiot Sam Smith is ruled out?

Hopefully

How did he ever get beyond singing karaoke in the local pub?
