incident Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 8 minutes ago, marcoolio said: It's also worth noting that Kylie's career in the charts spans 4 decades (1980's - 2010's), while the Spice Girls' spans 4 years (1996-2000). I'd also point out that Kylie had previous unfinished business with the Festival which added to the overall package. I'm pretty confident in saying that if she hadn't been booked for 2005, or if she'd not been forced to pull out through cancer, then she wouldn't have been given that position in 2019. She probably would have got the nod eventually, but not for at least another 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaact Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 George Michael is the legend slot that got away, definitely. He would have packed out the entire field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got no idea what he's like in terms of ego, perception of Glastonbury and all that good stuff. But it's not necessarily one that anyone would have expected Diana Ross to be up for a few years ago, so who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhyscork Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 Aerosmith, Spice Girls or Cher for next year i think. Could very much see Cher or Spice girls in the Legends, with Taylor headlining the same day. Would LOVE Billy Joel What about someone like Andrea Bocelli? Never see him as a name mentioned! Imagine "Time to say Goodbye" being belted out Others: Kate Bush, Stevie Nicks (not sure on this one, as i think they will always hold out hope for full FM), Celine Dion, Roger Waters, Madonna (more likely full headline), Eagles (again headline more likely), Sting/ The Police, Ozzy, Bon Jovi, Phil Collins/ Genesis, ABBA Got LOADS to keep them stocked for the next few years. Or it will be Coldplay.... 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a headliner surely? One of the last of those sorts of headliners on the cards. His songs are still pretty well regarded by younger folk into their 20s.
