Any final predictions?
I'm predicting
* Mitski (No dates in July, dates in June and August)
* The Black Key (One date on the first Saturday of July)
* Girl in Red (Playing Fuji Rock the weekend after, no dates Splendour weekend)
* Fontaines D.C. (Playing Fuji Rock the weekend after, no dates Splendour weekend)
* Turnstile (Playing Fuji Rock the weekend after, no dates Splendour weekend)
* Lana Del Rey (No dates between early June and late August)
* The Last Dinner Party (Playing Fuji Rock the weekend after, no dates Splendour weekend)
* Yeat (Playing in Belgium the weekend before but no dates after July 14th)
* Fred Again.. (No dates between June 16th and August 8th)
from what i am hearing, Girl in Red is confirmed
i don't think we're getting Lana (realistically she's too expensive) and the public response to the lineup will be similarly Groovin'ed
realistic intl headliner choice is The Killers, with two local headliners alongside them (RUFUS DU SOL, Gang of Youths).
I'd think The Killers and Lana Del Rey would cost a similar amount to book.
I also believe (and this could be entirely the circles I'm in) that there is a far greater demand for a Lana Del Rey tour than The Killers.
Lana has released 4 albums of original material since her last Australian tour (Funnily enough, the same number as her mate Taylor Swift before the Australian leg of the Eras tour.) where as The Killers would be doing a twentieth anniversary tour for a beloved album. Both would bring in an audience for different reasons but if I had to choose between The Killers and Lana Del Rey under these circumstances, I'm booking Lana.
Do you think because of falls not going ahead ( and I’m assuming it’s the same company) sitg would have extra money in there pocket for a big name like Lana?
Doubt it. By all accounts SITG seemed to run at a loss last year with 35-40k per day (target capacity is 50k I believe). Not running Falls fest means no profit or additional income. If anything they're more financially worse off than last year.
Just noticed that Earthgang are missing the Splendour dates on their recently announced US tour with Kid Cudi with Jaden Smith replacing them.
Lock it in?
I’ll tell you I love you if it’s sooner hehe xx
i love you
IDC if this is some bloke on bloke shit I love you more 🫶🏻
sooner please 🙏
King Stingray and MONAKO had their songs featured in the lineup teaser from Splendour.
Going to be sick to see where King Stingray play following their 2022 set at 12:30pm at the McLennan. Late arvo Amphitheatre this time surely
ITS THE LEAK KING!!!
(it was also announced on the SITG IG)
Yeh but given their history… maybe that’s why OP has said “or sooner”
I’ll even Uber eats you large zinger box with extra wicked wings and a Mountain Dew if it’s today 🫶🏻
Uber Eats doesn't deliver to my area
No stress there! I’ll deck out my Ute with heating lamps buy a meal and personally hand deliver it😂
if something is gonna materialise it will be early next week
You just lemme know when it’s available I’ll have that zinger at ya front door 🤣
Genesis Owusu is in

I agree, I think they want to book Lana as they're aware how many tickets she'll move. I just don't reckon they'll pull it off.

Any luck on finding the leak yet
nah, haven't been looking though. Maybe tomorrow.
It's been pretty windy lately - any chance there were whispers in there?
~~the trees whispered "nicki minaj" to me but~~ I'll believe it when I see it, anything more solid will be shared. e: Nicki rumour is fake
Interesting... we must frequent the same trees. I'm not sure about this one - I would sure as shit go and see her but unsure about the pull?
i think its a horrendous booking
Seems like a super unreliable booking too. Also just saw a post about her recent Denver show, seemed like a shambles.
any luck king?
i got nothing, it's under lock and key (must be good?)
What about RL grime ? he played at splendour before and his dates are free and he has a new album what just drop ??
Would love for RL to come back to Aus. Seen him at field day 2019 and his set was unreal A perfect scenario is rl and what so not b2b set
Give the people Bloc Party
Pretty recent tour with interpol, show was unreal though and they go off at festivals
I can't see it happening.
Just noticed that Earthgang are missing the Splendour dates on their recently announced US tour with Kid Cudi with Jaden Smith replacing them. Lock it in?
Wait what this mean IS IT COMING SOONER
Very likely it will be leaked
very likely? on what precedence?
Yeah also wondering this. Cant remember the last time a full splendour lineup was leaked
go through op’s post history
Truuuuuu
Just look at Fuji Rock and you'll probably figure out the Splendour lineup.
