2022 Lineup Predictions

[Gards]

I guess the Stones will finally play fest in '38. Or rather Keith & The Holograms. But it will probably be in the hideous Blues Tent.

I would prefer to see that show at Fais Do Do.

You can be sure that there will still be a couple of venerable, superannuated Threadheads eagerly assuring each other in exuberant , eloquent post after post about how the "boys" sound better than ever, then right on cue seamlessly go back to haughtily sniffing about how BNAs (who they of course would NEVER check out) are ruining Jazzfest.

We'll always have Zydeco.

Slightly fanning the "speculating on a 22 Fest appearance by the Stones" flames is a 5/5/22 Fillmore Bowie show announcement from Karl Denson. As a newly-reformed stove=hot no-advance-tickets-ever guy I'll just have to take y'alls word about either of these show's epic-ness'es.

The Stones would have to start a whole new tour though, cause this one's about to wrap. Then again, they have been displaying the message "See you soon" at the end of recent gigs.

That Denson gig had been scheduled for October Jazzfest. Like so many others, after Jazzfest cancelled, it was rescheduled for next April/May. So I wouldn't read anything into it.

With the exception that, other than the re-scheduled October date, it looked like the Tiny Universe was on-hold until the end of the Stones tour. I can't imagine hopping back & forth to make both bands' commitments would be worth the wear'n'tear... other than the enhanced pay!

Well, be booked our flight. Fingers crossed Masks will be the new black. Lol

I hope Aerosmith is there this year.

Can't wait to feel the positive vibes and oh, yeah the sunshine!

All on Mother's Day, what at wonderful gift.

Awesome. With a little luck, I think this Fest may actually happen this time. Hope to meet you both !!

Trey Anastasio Band in Atlanta first weekend could be in New Orleans second weekend for jam band Thursday.

Looks like a 2022 European tour for them. I saw them Sat night in Austin. They still got it. Keith is just hangin' on but Mick and Ronnie were fantastic and everyone else were really good . Some of the best sound and visuals I've ever seen at a huge show. I hope they make it back here

[MormonMatthew]

Speaking of legendary, groundbreaking artists who "Still got it...", and have steadfastly maintained their creative integrity over the years, gracefully aging virtuosos, (and not just long forgotten old, elderly relics embarrassingly trying to cling to past faded glories) who are clearly only still playing to satisfy their pure, insatiable, undying love of the music, and are most certainly NOT simply greedily cashing in on nostalgia in a pathetic, naked, obscene, even demeaning cash grab, New Kids On The Block, Salt-N-Pepa, En Vouge and Rick Astley are kicking off their joint "Mix Tape" tour in beautiful Cincinnati, OH on May 10th, so hopefully the week before they can all get the Fairgrounds up and rockin' as a warm-up gig for their big upcoming campaign.

Girl You Know It's True!!!

Joe Jackson's tour starts on May 11 in Durham.

He's always been tops on my list of artists who belong at JF (as has Nick Lowe). I've ever seen one of his songs covered by a brass band.

I'd love to see Joe, Nick or Dave Edmunds who I hear is now retired.
