As the 20th anniversary, are we going to see some old favourites back?

it's weird that they're calling it the 20th anniversary, though, isn't it?

with no GM last year, next year's will be the 19th

and it's not even 20 years, as the first was in 2003

I hadn't realised that, all very strange anyone out there know why?

Wakestock replied on Thu, 16/09/2021 - 11:00pm Permalink

I guess they could argue the online offering last August was the 19th, though it's debatable whether that really counts. Glastonbury celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2020 and I can't even remember it! Are they calling 2022 their 52nd I wonder, or will they rewind the clock and call that the 50th anniversary? It's a veritable can of worms if you ask me.

I suspect with a new album on the way Alt-j will be playing one of the festivals.

Slugger replied on Fri, 17/09/2021 - 1:32pm Permalink

The Felice Brothers have a new album out today.

I loved their performance on the Mountain stage a few years ago.

Be great to see them back.

The 'Oh Sees' are now the Osees.
I will be seeing them next Spring after a few postponements, during which time they have changed names at least once.

Not everyone would be

Not everyone would be enthusiastic, in fact they may even elicit a Doves/Future Islands type response but I think Maximo Park would be great as Thursday Far Out headliners

blackcatista replied on Sat, 18/09/2021 - 11:40pm Permalink

Have thought that before

Have thought that before myself. could even picture them as full headliners.

Wakestock replied on Sun, 19/09/2021 - 11:44pm Permalink

my head says The Bad Seeds

my head says The Bad Seeds are a bit outside Green Man's budget these days, but my heart still wonders if it might just be possible looking at their European festival dates throughput July and August, with no UK dates announced as yet. Glastonbury looks far more likely admittedly, but it would be great wouldn't it?

I'll second quite a few of those Kraz.

I was listening to that most recent James Yorkston album last night for the first time in a while and it really is magnificent; up there with his finest work imo.

That collection of musicians ("the second hand orchestra") really produced something magical.

Imagine them all together on stage ... Sublime!

Krasnyi replied on Tue, 21/09/2021 - 8:26pm Permalink

The musicianship on that

The musicianship on that record is really something. I'm guessing it was meant to be a one-off but I'd love to see them together live.

Oh and I did forget . . .

Amyl and the Sniffers

Unknown Mortal Orchestra

White Denim

some members of the Carthy family

also think it would be a nice touch to invite Jo Bartlett to talk about the early days

Wakestock replied on Sat, 25/09/2021 - 12:01pm Permalink

With a new album from Robert

With a new album from Robert Plant and Alison Krauss out in November and confirmation they'll be touring next year I'd have thought that's a possibility.

jedthehumanoid replied on Mon, 27/09/2021 - 4:09pm Permalink

Orville Peck anyone?

Orville Peck anyone? Obviously travel restrictions may scupper some international travel. He's hinted he has a new album ready to go which should lead to a big tour at some point next year. I think he would be a great Far Out headliner, though he may be too big for that by the time the festival comes around with the way his profile is growing at the moment.

fleet foxes

booked for ATP on the 26th aug

as they're not the headliner that day (and therefore an exclusive), they are presumably a possibility for GM 2022

ditto kraftwerk, who are second on the bill the week before (20th)

(though maybe i'm the only person who couldn't give much of a monkey's about kraftwerk...)

Would they be considered for Green Man 2022 considering how recently the have headlined?

with you on Kraftwerk though (although I know there would be plenty who would like to see them)

Also, any predictions on Baxter Dury? He is playing what is likely an exclusive gig here in Australia, but I currently doubt I can make it (unlike Arab Strap, who already are at Greenman!).
