MEGATRONICMEATWAGON Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 It's been about a decade (from my recollection) of the last time this was done, which I believe was won by Stevie Wonder. Can we finish before T-Day? Will Stevie triumph again? There's been an awful lot of challengers recently for the all time classic headliner. If I've forgotten anyone, please add them.

REM win Perhaps there should just be a final right now between REM and Stevie Wonder. Maybe all the Kendrick-ites and Maccabites might feel aggrieved.

MEGATRONICMEATWAGON Posted August 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Okay, fair enough. Someone else mentioned it in another thread and we both reminisced about the one a decade ago. I was too busy with babies and diapers to be on here between 2020-2021. I tried to search for it using the terms Hurt/Heal but nothing came up, so thought I'd do a new one. Prob too early for another one, although I'm surprised REM won... Stevie Wonder - the original and best Hurt/Heal headliner winner still 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
found home in 2009 Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 So are we going again or is there no appetite for it? The Who seem to be in the list twice by the way, whilst I think every other headliner that has player more than once is only there once.
