Dunno why im in this thread really, the legends slot doesnt really appeal to me at all (ive only seen a couple, Dolly and ELO-  i tend to avoid it like the plague due to unappealing acts and insane crowds) but bloody hell, id be 100% there if it were Iggy. Cant see it happening, but it would be amazing!

I think it’s because it’s a big question mark. Can’t remember the last time we were this in the dark regarding the legend.

Personally I think the legend will be female. I know Emily talked about some years having all male headliners (probably laying the groundwork for this year knowing it was a possibility), but something tells me in that situation she'd go all out to at least secure a female legend slot which is arguably one of the 4 big crowds of the weekend.

It's Spice Girls init.

It’s either gonna be somebody huge who they’re keeping extremely hush hush about, possibly somebody who needs to announce a comeback/tour themselves, or somebody not quite up to the same size/standards as usual and we’ll all be a bit ‘ah right’ when announced.

 

Or possibly somebody in the middle.

I can't think of many good candidates I'd actively be disappointed in. Double Duran, Robbie, Spice Girls, all good for an afternoon singsong.

I'm hoping for spice girls at this point, be nice if they would announce as I'm impatient 

[The Nal]

Fu-Schnickens are due a reunion tour. 

Would probably want to headline though.

Mariah Carey - doesn't seem to be on the road

Don't think it rules her in much at all, but Mariah is doing the Lovers & Friends festival in Vegas in May.

Yes, we need a legend with a mullet 

especially after Macca didn’t sing mullet of Kintyre last year. 😉

[Hugh Jass II]

Booking Pulp for that slot would be no different to them calling Primal Scream or the Manics in future years.

There are enough slots for these sort of acts as it is.

Thomas Bangalter? New album April 7

[CaledonianGonzo]

Cant wait to be in the pit as Brian Molko takes the stage as 4th headliner, security guards doing a line dance to Pure Morning.

[ticketboy69]

How about Billy Idol?

I for one would be ecstatic to hear So Much Love To Give on The Pyramid.
