That man RightBazza getting all up in the mix again.

Hell yes. Guest appearance from Bazza to hit the backing vocals would be the glace cherry on that particular bakewell

Stop in the Name of love, Baby Love, Upside Down, Chain Reaction, I'm coming out, You Can't Hurry Love, Why do fools fall in love, you keep me hanging on, love child, aint no mountain high enough,

That's 10 absolute barnstormers before we get into anything else.

It's often a song you wouldn't expect that lifts the legend slot. For Kylie, I expected it to be, CGYOOMH - but Chris Martin scuppered that. All the Lovers was the one that stuck out to me.

Watching that on TV was one of the moments that made me think "I want to be there".  That and Chic.

Yes they are 2 of my classics. I think Paul Heaton is very much in the same vein as Ray Davies and would be brilliant in that slot but I think I might be 10 years too early in suggesting it which is a shame as both their voices are up to it now and they might not be by the time his genius is recognised.

Queen with Adam Lambert would be special .. saw them last when Freddie was still alive 

If in the unlikely event Brian May decides killing badgers is actually ok they still wouldn’t play the legend slot.

Queen + AL is headliner stuff. They would annihilate the Pyramid, even without Freddie.

Been road testing the Rossinator's back catalogue on a sunny afternoon in the back garden.

I can once again confirm that this would absolutely fucking slap. Hits for days.

Agree. It would be phenomenal - especially from your shoulders! !!

Anyone giving serious consideration for Sir Clifford of Richardshire. Currently on tour, and no question he qualifies. If he brings Hank with him and drops Summer Holiday, Living Doll, The Young Ones, Devil Woman and Wired for sound? I know he's not Diana Ross, but in case she  doesn't want to fly...?

No.

My mum has the worst musical taste in the world, and her absolute favourite is Cliff. Anything she'd approve of should be ruled out on principal. I know that the slot is essentially for an older pop / mainstream act, but it only works well when it involves a bit of fun and/or kitsch - whereas Cliff still takes himself entirely seriously. It'd be all the things people complained about with ELO, magnified.

Sir cliff played a gig on the Yorkshire coast last weekend.  Apparently a rather elderly audience was in attendance so much so they closed 1/2 the bars as nobody was drinking.  A near 8000 sell out as well

Yay! You survived Fuzzy! I did think of you as I melted at the Park on Saturday, on the verge of a wobbly as I searched for shade (none).

I survived! Thanks for the concern.

I had a wobble on The Saturday. I cant say I enjoyed Saturday afternoon, but I managed to get some shade near the Glade & made the best of it. I didnt see a few acts I wanted to & was thankful the temps dropped on Saturday evening... but overall I had a really good week.

I hope you had a good one!

Excellent. Good man. 

Yeah, I had blast. One of my faves, for sure. 

Saturday was certainly a battle of attrition at times.

 

On topic:

Gotta be DRoss for the Legend slot and ftw.

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
    • Taxi mafia running their usual scam.
