Would be an absolute tradegy. But who knows what the future holds..

Weirdly I'm thinking it could be Dr Dre or even maybe Eminem.

I was thinking exactly the same and you beat me to it!!  "Piss off old guard" & "legends slot" seems like an oxymoron, but then I thought if it's some cheesy manufactured bullshit pop act from the 90's that would tick both boxes.  Steps seemed the obvious candidate but there are plenty of others of their ilk that fit the same criteria.

I actually wouldn’t mind it 😅

It does have potential to be a great laugh/party atmosphere.  Mrs 4AM (still in her 30's) would probably fucking love it and know all the dance moves.....

Diana Ross was announced one year ago today. 

Unless it's a stella star I can't see the Legend being announced first this year. "Thanks for the extra £50 everyone, it went towards security Roxy Music".

Agree 

I imagine we will have something confirmed, be it a headliner or legend, before christmas but not just yet.

You don't have to be concerned with this...

You will be packed up and on the road back to Yorkshire before Donavon is halfway through Hurdy Gurdy Man...

You've got prescriptions to fill on Monday!

Odds on us getting a headliner announcement this year?

What are your thoughts?

If that happens, the Glasto Chat comments will be interesting that day!

Must be a good chance of a major announcement this month. I hope it's someone completely out of the blue (No, that's not a request for the return of ELO!).

Still, prefer that than Steps as I'm one of those who'd be pissed off with someone like that.

Must be one before Christmas surely?  They usually throw us a bone just after T-Day and that was a month late this time round.

Since 2010 they have announced a headliner before New Year on 6 occasions (including 2020) which means they didn't on 4. But the last time we didn't know a headliner by New Year was 2016. 

I think we'll have something but #ThereIsNoPattern and all that.

Anyone else find it a bit weird that 3 of the 8 early announcements above never came off?  Realise that 2 were for 2020 and both Macca/U2 played later on but still struck me as an odd coincidence.

It’s just all due to timing, if the artist has no other European plans it makes no difference when the announcement happens . For example Taylor had sold out her Bst date so Glastonbury had no effect on them ticket sales at all

It's an interesting observation, just co-incidence as other that were announced later were also cancelled but I guess there's more chance for things to go wrong the earlier you announce stuff.

The day that Steps are considered to be 'legends', is the day that I officially give up on modern life!

I reckon they'll drop a name soon. Have Arctic Monkeys sold out every date? If they have, I reckon they'll be the obvious one. I have a strange feeling that the other two headliners might not even be signed-up yet
