Apart from being blatantly sexist and ageist?

It can be simultaneously true that: 1) In isolation each of the acts is plenty big enough / suitable for their allocated in slots 2) In combination it does look pretty stale and homogeneous

So, it was the 25th anniversary of Jagged Little Pill earlier this year, so would Alanis Morrisettè fit the bill? Proper 90's legend and seems to be doing the odd festival this year.

I think 90’s female popstars are a rich seam the festival need to try and mine for this slot, there are plenty of names that will keep them going for a while. Aside from the likes of Beyoncé and Madonna, there are quite a few that fit the brief of being big but couldn’t headline, and have the hits.

Brandi Carlisle, who sometimes guests with Elton.

I think this time it's for real.  He hasn't really recovered from his recent spinal surgery so touring is definitely out of the question for him.  He might still do an occasional gig, health permitting but for now he's out of action

Yeah, just seen it pop up on Twitter. Won't lie, feel bad about being flippant now.

So glad I got to see him with Sabbath in 2016.

Auto correction on spelling,  it’s Carlile I meant! 

I figured that, but what I'm saying is Brandi Carlile is a 2000's artist who does stuff with Elton John, but Belinda Carlisle is the 80s into 90s popstar with big hits.

Yeah they need to call him up  and say "can you f*ck off...now can you f*ck off a bit further..." 

I heard Paul Sinha on the radio a while back talking about how Clapton should do the right thing with this song credit, seeing as her contribution is so famous due to Goodfellas, yet the credit was stolen and given to her wife beater ex boyfriend, who later went on to become a murderer.
