So... 2022 In Manics Years

[Son of Stopped]

"It's too soon!".
With their American tour and only Isle of Wight festival booked for next year. I think we can safely make a thread about 2022 as a Manics year.
We got the remaining TUVL dates earlier in the year. Arena support slots happened but sadly a festival with Sea Power supporting failed to materialise due to COVID.
They played Tolerate at a massive televised Ukrainian benefit event. Later America and Canada had a Winter tour just finished.
We got another playlist on Spotify full of covers. I admit I haven't been listening to that as much as the Duets one. What I listened to again and again was the Know Your Enemy reimagined album.
TUVL was nominated for a Welsh Music Prize but sadly never won.
James played guitar on a couple of tracks of the new Proclaimers album.
And Nicky's second album is apparently due next yea.
Did I miss anything out?

I think it's been a blinder of a year for the Manic Street Preachers! You'd think getting to number 1 last year would have been their last bit of activity.
Once again didn't see them live myself.
How do you think it's been for yourself as a fan? Not worried about what's next because I know their next will happen.
