Be to do with broadcasting the set...

Reckon we have three major names right now to fill Neil's gap - Fender, Muse and Stevie.    Fender absolutely makes sense but again it would be unprecedented to have three young headliners.   Stevie would be an absolute dream and an excellent name for a veteran act with a crowd-pleasing back catalogue.   But I think Muse are a really good shout for it. Got festivals lined up for next year, a reliable headliner with many recognisable hits and an excellent show every time they've played. Maybe I'm biased because I am a massive fan but I think I can see it.   The 1975/Muse/O-Rod at the minute.

Oasis step in to fill the hole …I’m not thinking this will happen but an outside chance maybe 

Obviously there’s a few months to go, but it probably means a replacement is on the smaller side.  There won’t be a mega A lister filling the spot.    So someone who is…..   A. Touring  B. Willing to do it/it would be a big move career wise    Step forward…..   Sam Fender 

I haven’t looked at their dates so not sure if they’re around but feels like Muse could be a reliant back up if they need someone in a pinch.   The 1975, Muse and Olivia Rodrigo still seems pretty well balanced
