Radiohead, Elton, The Smiths…

(R.E.M are my favourite band, but seen them countless times, tough call between Zeppelin and The Smiths for the non-starter)…

Love your work here

I misread this one as Taylor Smith and The Swifts, and suddenly, some terrifying possibilities opened up amid the cosmos.

[Havors]

Arcade Fire, Dua Lipa, Fleetwood Mac.... im going to say Fleetwood will never do it because of the money.

In the order in which they were asked: returning Bruce Springsteen, new Depeche Mode, not going to happen Oasis.

Fun idea, got carried away and did a few:

Kanye - The Strokes - Madonna

Metallica - Outkast - Whitney Houston 

Oasis - Taylor Swift - Prince

Lady Gaga - The Chemical Brothers - Jimi Hendrix

The Carters (Beyoncé + Jay Z) - Fleetwood Mac - Kate Bush

(returning - new - never)

Had Slipknot over The Strokes originally on the first one but hard one to picture on the Pyramid realistically. Also had Biggie over Hendrix but a hard one to picture too - wouldn’t have headlined in his day but definitely would if he was still alive today. Last one is totally cheating with The Carters but a boy can dream.

Didn’t realise Daft Punk played the festival in 1997. Swapped for Chem Bros as it’d be good to see the return of the dance music Pyramid headliner, and I can’t think who else could atm. If Bicep get another big album or two under their belt maybe one day.

I'd be well up for Chems doing it again. Feel like the screen setup is better on other for them though honestly

Yeah. Just opened this thread and could very get carried away with it.
