Gucci Piggy Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 22 hours ago, musky said: So we don't reckon Chic could be in with a shout at the legends slot? Too soon after West Holts maybe? There seems to be a lot of store put in to what Bazza had to say last summer. The DiRo thing hasn't panned out, either because it was never right or it just fell through, but that's par for the course for such pronouncements so far in advance. At the moment we're back to square one for the legends slot, and from what we know I'd say Chic are front runners. Still all to play for though. Well, Barry Gibb is down as TBC for Sunday Pyramid Stage, and tbh would have been the obvious guess from the off if it weren't for the Diana Ross rumours. So I'd be fairly confident it'll end up being him now. Only thing is his lack of any dates lined up. Can see him doing it and then announcing a UK tour off the back of it, though.

Being a rabid Sabbath fan may I point out that Ozzy and Jack were pictured by the Tor last year throwing me into feverish speculation that Glastonbury might be part of The End tour. Maybe they were having very early talks with Emily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe_lander2005 Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Just wondering but has anyone considered the possibility of Celine Dion? She's in the UK touring with a gap over Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Jeff Lynne, as average as an effect that he had on the day (and surely on the BBC) how spectacular is it that he decided right after that he was good enough to announce a Wembley Stadium show mere days after….how’s that show going with tix? are there 70,000 who want to go see him in a stadium? Looks pretty sold out from this: http://www.seetickets.com/event/jeff-lynne-s-elo/wembley-stadium-london/996688 https://www.stargreen.com/jeff-lynne-s-elo.html/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a theoretical possibility that it could happen, but it's really not something I'd like to give too much thought to as it makes me sad.

Can't see her settling for 2nd sub on Other or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Calgon has biggedup Celine on 'ere numerous times. Tunes sez he. Does she still do "Ne Partez Pas Son Moi" / a chewn I'll admit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TunaBaby Posted March 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Iv got a feeling that we might get a 'Special Guest' on the first poster. Seems strange that after having a separate legend slot announcement for the last few years we haven't had one this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooderson Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Céline no worse nor different to Shirley B. Her schtick is even more clipped and unusual, actually, making for a potentially mad show. Her set is seasoned with some bonkers covers.

Wooderson Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Céline at Glasters would be unwatchable, but unmissible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaf Nobby Burton Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) It's possible they want to decommission the legend spot as such, after Dolly and Lionel it's a bit of a tough act to live up to and probably difficult to find acts every year to live up to their hype. It will still be a Legend as such but they just won't hype it separately as much. They'll just appear on the poster in that particular slot.

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Interested in any arguments as to why it won't be Barry Gibb, given that we know they offered it to him last year, he says he wants to do it and Neil places him as a TBC on the Pyramid on the Sunday. And just because they haven't announced it separately yet doesn't mean that that it still isn't forthcoming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
