Wasnt D-Rozz meant to play last year or something? and had to cancel? so seems like a good guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be looking at Devil Woman Wired For Sound We Don't Talk Anymore Move It Livin' Doll The Young Ones Summer Holiday Take those as the "big ones" and throw in the inevitable rock'n'roll classic covers and Mistletoe & Wine for shits and giggles, and you've got a set. Get the Rik Mayall Young Ones vid on in the background as a duet and you're away. Throw in Hank and the lads and then you’re talking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sylvester-901 Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 (edited) Grace Jones? She plays in the UK quite often. Established and has been around for years. Though I'd find a set by her quite underwhelming Edited July 20, 2018 by sylvester-901 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 You've answered your own question. 99% of people wouldnt give a fiddlers. Cher, on the other hand, is definitely having a wee moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 Grace Jones? No, not a legend by my definition Cher - yes Kylie - yes but probably too big still for legend Madonna - ditto Diana Ross - perfect Everyone else mentioned - underwhelming for me. Some of them aren't at all legends in my eyes. Wow that sounds harsh but you know what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not counting the year The Coors inexplicably played the slot, of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She may be a legend but not in the mould of Glasto Sunday teatime legends. Not cheesy or hit-packed enough. She should play 3rd down Pyramid or headline West Holts or something.

crocodiles Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hope it's Diana Ross no desire to see cher. Grace Jones doesn't fit in legends slot but would love her to appear somewhere over the weekend she'd be epic . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
