2023 legend slot

Missed Lizzo too. No idea where I was that afternoon.

Lizzo looked great on TV although I was doing hip hop karaoke at Stonebridge bar.

If any of you saw a very sunburned and dehydrated white guy in a straw hat rapping Swimming Pools that was me.

I was working behind the bar at that point and definitely remember this 😅

AH HA! That’s where I was and yes I think I did! I had my name down but didn’t get the chance. Luckily for everyone there…

I reckon it’ll be Stevie Nicks

Oh defo a guess this time.  Was listening to Fleetwood Mac, then wondered if she’s touring.  She’s doing some bits in the US but with really big gaps, don’t think it’s out of the question.

This is my dream. I’m trying not to get my hopes up too much though 🙃

[guypjfreak]

Why not stevie.. Be a very emotional set.. Imo

[Zoo Music Girl]

That Lizzo set was incredible. We really struggled with the heat that Saturday and her set really energised us and got us up and dancing again (I think it also cooled down just before it?).

Sun went behind a cloud for a bit at Lizzo o'clock

Just seen he’s Dublin on Sunday 

[Gnomicide]

Lizzo was indeed great, this always raises a smile, or eyebrow...

That's a shame, I have great memories of seeing him on the Pyramid many years back

[Superunknown]

Can think of quite a few reasons why he wouldn't but I'm still holding out hope for Roger Waters in the legend slot, main issue is he's probably too big for it but I can dream.

Totally unsuited to the "legend slot".

I know, he's actually good.

If Waters plays, and I absolutely think he should, it's headline or bust. His shows of the last few years have been incredible and would look amazing on that Pyramid. Imagine what they could do with projections etc.

Randomly*, Gloria Gaynor just came on my playlist.  Could she do it? 

Quick google tells me she's active again in the last couple of years and she still looks and sounds great at 79!

She also has connections with DiRo and Kylie! 

*not that random!

 

 

[clasher]

Waters would headline or nothing I'd say.

Nick Mason's Saucerful of secrets though... Gimme that anywhere anytime and I'll be there.

[kingbadger]

Stevie Nicks is a shout. Would add a bit of gender diversity to the top slots if nothing else.

She has one legendary song, but I don't think she would count as a legend slot booking.

Seems far more like a Park afternoon soul legend like Ronnie Spector or Mavis Staples
