How long do we have to wait till our favourite noughties bands are lined up for the legends slot? Chelsea Dagger is gonna go off.

Easy costume for the legends slot 2054

 

 

[Earth_pig]

Bring back the hives !

 

I think it will be the 1975 now they have wormed themselves in with extinction rebellion etc

They will likely do it on the cheap, perhaps even for free as long as everyone knows they have done it for free.

Thats who id put my penny on.

You owe ma boi Kyle 2 apologies for that post.

Dyou reckon they'll manage to get Hadouken to get back together to play before Klaxons?

 

 

Anyway back to headliners they should just get 1975 and Foals to co-headline. But not one after the other, get it down in one.

I’ve said it a million times but can we stop calling Foals a new band.

They should now call themselves ‘Horses’ to avoid this confusion

Cannot wait for a Razorlight Sunday afternoon set in 2043.

The hill I’ll die on is that Razorlight s/t is the most underrated and unfairly hated album of the 2000’s.

You make a lot of strange statements about people saying stuff without anyone actually saying anything...

No one:

Absolutely no one:

Absolutely no one at all:

Dunno if I’d die on that hill but I’ll go

part way up-great album

[CaledonianGonzo]

Foals have the vibe of a new act cos they're always on the verge of a big comeback.

[Suprefan]

So is everyone expecting a Glastonbury calendar gap or a Hyde Park date the week after to confirm the 1975 are playing with whatever tour announcement is coming in a few hours?

If we're talking about giving new acts the chance to headline, what about Biffy Clyro??

[thewayiam]

Just to see, would people be happy if they announced The 1975, FM and Arctic Monkeys as a trio?

Sure. That's incredibly strong. Not sure I'd see any of them mind.

1975 - not my thing and wouldn't watch them,  but I'd get it

Fleetwood Mac - undeniably a legendary band that have never played before, I'd absolutely get it and might well see them.

Arctic Monkeys - again not really my cup of tea and I wouldn't watch them, but they've not played since 2013 so it's not exactly like we get them every year. I'd get it.

So individually, yes. I could see any one of them headlining.  As a trio?  I'd feel it was pretty...dull tbh.

The Who deserve a shot at it.

Has the moment not went for Biffy, Just can't see it happening now

[Hugh Jass]

Everyone just make your peace with the fact that this is happening...

Dull was my feeling, the last anniversary was going to be U2, Muse and Stevie Wonder...all massive and different at the same. If you have Foals under one of them then take out FM and it could be R&L on any year.

Is this a new game; try and pick 3 headliners that folk would like rather than the old game of suggesting them one at a time?

I like the boldness of the approach and I'll be gobsmacked if there's a trio that gets universal support.

Rats I thought that we would get some dates around June which would give a clearer sign.

Definitely sets them up for a festival tour in the summer.

There are genuinely too many "never gonna happen" memes and gifs available for me to be able to pick just one to use in response.
