Messy Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Okay, let's imagine for a minute that due to the global economic crisis, Mr. Eavis can only afford to pay each of the pyramid headliners enough for them to play one song in their set. Who would you have headlining, and what song would you have them play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRW Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Ok, so this was the hardest thing anyone has ever asked me to do. And now looking back at it there are some lame choices. There are bands here that - wouldn't get a headline slot, wouldn't neccessarily fit the stage I've put them on, and are dead. And this afternoon I will want to change it all again. But this is how I feel for now:- Friday Pyramid - Neil Young - Like a Hurrican or Cortez the Killer or Cowgirl in the Sand Other - Elbow - Grace Under Pressure Jazz - Bob Dylan - Hurricane Acoustic - Damien Rice - Coconut Skins JP - Jamie T - Salvador Saturday Pyramid - Radiohead - Paranoid Android (I know it might be too obvious a choice, but its a classic) Other - Kanye West - Gold Digger Jazz - Antony & the Johnsons - Hope There's Someone Acoustic - Tom McRae - End Of The World News (Dose Me Up) JP - Pigeon Detectives Vampire Weekend- Oxford Comma Sunday Pyramid - Ian Brown = F.E.A.R or T.I.M.E Other - The Twang - The Neighbour Jazz - King Curtis - A whiter Shade of Pale Acoustic - Ray LaMontagne - Till the Sun Turns Black JP - The Magic Numbers - This is a Song *edit- just realised you only asked for the Pyramid headliners - oh well treat the rest as a bonus.

ig1234 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Going on the current 3 likely headliners: Neil - Words (or Rockin In The Free World as I see him 4 times this year and didn't get it once...) Bruce - Hard To Be A Saint In The City Each with an insanely long solo. Blur - On The Way To The Club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiohea_d Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Perfect choice: Friday: f**k Buttons - Sweet Love For Planet Earth Saturday: Radiohead - Idioteque Sunday: Sigur Rós - Untitled 8 Yes, I know that f**k Buttons are hardly big enough to even play anywhere at Galstonbury. And Sigur Rós are not big enough to headline, but this is my fantasy, don't take it away from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggum Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 I can't believe song 2's been mentioned twice. When you only have 1 blur song to pick, there must be at least 200 better ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
