Still say they should book Bryan Adams, as long as they ban him from the Mel C song.

He might bring Pamela Anderson out instead 🤣

Conversely, they should book Bryan Adams only if he promises to bring Mel C out for that song. 

Agreed.

Might be why he's not the name on everyone's lips.

He'd never do some "ah sure play the hits" lot anyway. Literally the last likely candidate on earth.

Security guards doing a line dance to Misery Is The River Of The World.

Am I in the minority for realising that song opens the floodgates to Spice Girls in the 2024 Legend Slot? 😉

I’m down for a bit of Cat Stevens in the legends slot. Infinitely better than Rod and more in keeping with the ethos of the festival itself.

What is the ethos of the festival?

It certainly doesn't influence who is booked to play.

I imagine Billy Bragg might have something to say about that.

Cat Stevens is a lovely little booking... naff for the 'legend slot' though IMO.

I want a party...

No but I'm quite happy to see them in that slot!

[Hugh Jass II]

Do we only party between 16.00 and 17.15 on the Sunday now?

Apart from Elton. That’ll be one hell of a party.

[CaledonianGonzo]

The Pyramid's looking good for fun times this year: Lizzo, BLACKPINK, Lil Nas X, etc.

But the only party the Catster will lay on is a slumber party.

Cat Stevens in to BLACKPINK/Lil Nas X is gonna be quite the mood change up. Spliffs and chairs away, pills out and taps aff. 

[BenG92]

Someone say party?

[CaledonianGonzo]

He'd better do the one off of Harold and Maude.

[Bike_Like_A_Mum]

Let's face it, not quite the same vibe is it (which is also fine). Might go there for a rest and have a lovely little listen on my picnic blanket.

Maybe the field will be busy enough with people getting spots for Elton nice and early but the circus folk will be pretty redundant without a decent flash mob option poor people

[CaledonianGonzo]

It'll be like Paul Simon. Largish crowd growing restless.

Paul has a lot more up neat stuff in his back catalogue he just wasn’t very good, I imagine most people at Cat will know what to expect 

[Drinky]

Paul Simon gets a pass because he was clearly sick

[ticketboy69]

Am I wrong in thinking that Cat would be a better headliner for the acoustic tent rather than the legend slot?
