2023 legend slot

[stuie]

Candi Statton?

Judging by the poster they just dropped..

I think we’re due a legend.

[Zoo Music Girl]

They would definitely flag Yusuf as Legend wouldn't they?

Unless they dispensing with the slot, but after DiRo last year seems unlikely.

Pulp for legends?!

Blondie would be better for the Legends slot. Every song a singalong hit. 

Blondie are really flat as a live act.

Yes I might be in the minority but I enjoyed them as well, I never wanted to leave the shelter of the pyramid tree after managing to get a spot under it😉😊

Lucky! Wish I'd tried to find that 😁

BBC article reporting that Yusuf/ Cat is indeed the Legend.

With Blondie following.

Well d@b me down. Its a Legend Slot Double Bill, like I said not two hours ago would never happen.

[Alcatraz]

What chance of The Chicks before Cat? Surely got to be so

[Ayrshire Chris]

Now just need a nice sunny chilled out afternoon with Yusafs tunes wafting over the pyramid field. 

[John the Moth]

So Lizzo is the legend slot. Legend goes on poster top line, right?

If this is true he's in a very strange place in the poster, no?

But often the legend slot is given top billing along with the headliners, right?

Legend slot reverting to type

There was little fanfare over Neil Diamond/Jeff Lynne/Kenny Rogers

[dreams_burn_down]

More than happy to end my festival with Cat Stevens > Blondie > Lil Nas X? > Elton

Yup - but they've obviously moved Lizzo up due to the double headliner billing.

[Acid Loafers]

Poor Cat, getting booted off the top. Hope this doesn't affect his crowd as people might not realise he's the Legend spot.

Pretty Sure Stanley could have designed the poster in a way to get them all up there. Including Lizzo.

Most of the names could have been split on two lines.

Occasionally. It has happened the last couple times, but not enough to be considered a pattern and not this time.

[Serenefishy]

If I was a gloating scrote, which I most certainly am, I think I was the first to predict Cat in this thread.

It was a bad clash for me, I’m a huge fan of Calexico. I’ve seen them a good number of times so it had to be the Stones that night. 

Where were they when stones were on?

The Park, it wasn’t a 100% clash but not viable to do both.

Am just trying to imagine the flash mob dance to Moonshadow…… 😂

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pray for the Theatre folks who organise it....

(Unless they just trundle out for Heart of Glass)
