gfa Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 If everyone had to have a returning headliner, new headliner and 1 thats ruled out as will never do it (dead or alive, for whatever reason) who would you pick? I'd go for Blur, Taylor Swift and The Strokes i reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rose-Colored Boy Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) Beyoncé, Taylor Swift and The Beatles is a bit obvious so I’ll say Stevie Wonder, Rihanna and 90s-era Whitney Houston.

NorthernSoul52 Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 On the basis of personal preference, then Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band / Lady Gaga / Prince, probably. Iron Maiden over Lady Gaga if you think they're big enough, though the two love each other enough to make the idea of a combined set an oddball thrill. On the basis of deserved opportunity, then Gorillaz / The 1975 / New Order. (The former deserve a second crack now Damon Albarn has another decade of live experience with them under his belt, and the later are my ruled out pick by dint of size - but have a catalogue to make a worthy stab at Worthy Farm's biggest gig.)

balti-pie Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Returning headliner: Blur New headliner: Pearl Jam Will never happen headliner: Beatles Legend slot: Simon & Garfunkel bit of a sausagefest, and im a bit worried about going to the pyramid three nights in a row, but there we go - four artists ive never seen (well, Art Garfunkel at the acoustic, and McCartney this year, but you know what i mean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 How big are The Strokes over here? I'm not willing to use the fact they haven't apparently sold Lytham out as a barometer if only because it is Lytham and nobody goes there if they can help it.
