This is basically why, in 2024, i think he should be doing the legend slot and no more. Is he going to pull more than the capacity of the Other stage circa 60,000? I'm not so sure.
Would have loved Fred Again or Barry Can't Swim. Would be amazing if Pulp headlined a stage. Prodigy are the only (possible) headliner that I'd be excited about that's been mentioned so far. Aside from those, just someone that's known, has a huge back catalogue of hits that the field can all rock out to. I know it would never happen now but would love Primal Scream subbing Prodigy for instance. Nile Rodgers will be class and I'll be there for the legends slot as Rod Stewart will do a good job of getting people swaying and smiling.
Charli and Chappell both heavily rumoured to be playing in non-headliner slots. Fred was seemingly Plan A but dropped most of his big 2025 commitments and 1975 drafted in. Pulp have toured extensively over the past two years - not exciting at all as a headliner booking. Bicep still touring their Chroma thing for some reason, probably back touring properly next year, good contender to headline Other in ‘27.
* sorry, Charli rumoured to be headlining Other
Charli XCX, Bicep, Fred Again, Chappell Roan, Pulp would all be more interesting/exciting than the 1975 at least. They in particular feel like absolute bilge. Olivia and Neil not for me but can accept them as talented at least.
