catavento Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Carole King would be great for that "oh wait, this one was them as well?" factor, but I dunno if she tours much now? I think we'll get Robbie Williams sooner rather than later tbh. Still does festivals, loads of hits, history with Glastonbury - I'm surprised it hasn't already happened. I wonder if they'll take the same approach as this year and have a lower key legend slot followed by one a bit more casual-friendly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he's keen, feels inevitable he'll have done it by the end of the decade. Only thing that might stall him is that he's still quite young and the fest might want to book older acts while they still can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjsh Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Stevie Nicks or Annie Lennox would be sensational. Shania Twain would be a laugh for a sing a long too although I'd prefer the two above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We simply cannot afford such a thought to even briefly cross Emily’s mind. Agreed.

Ps they'd like to know that they are DARYLL Hall and JOHN Oates 😡 they are NOT simple Hall & Oates and never have been thankyouverymuch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose-Colored Boy Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 DARYLL Hall and JOHN Oates have been sampled by so many people you could make an entire Sunday on the Pyramid out of artists connected to them, with them playing the Legends Slot as the centrepiece. The XX to headline. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Pose Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Could see a ‘less big’ 1-2 again of someone like Duran Duran in the Blondie role and then a well regarded older solo act that will get a shrug from Joe bloggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

found home in 2009 Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Not sure if it's realistic, but Joni Mitchell just played her first show in decades. Lots of great songs, undoubtedly a legend, would be a real wow booking and some of her songs fit in with the festivals eco ideals("They paved paradise And put up a parking lot" has to be one of the greatest lyrics about humanity destroying nature, simple but poignant) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike_Like_A_Mum Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) Ooooo Shania Twain would be a good one too! Isn't she on record saying she'd like to do it some point? Rick Astley and Foo Fighters are evidence that earlier bookings can still be a huge crowd draw and have huge media attention. Maybe that will appeal more to acts like Robbie Williams etc so doesn't have to necessarily be a 'legend' but still pull off a mega pyramid party anytime...

rwoo Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Bit of a Big Shot, but I can see it being Billy Joel next year. Pretty gutted I won’t be there to see it. If not then Robbie is probably a Strong second contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balti-pie Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 If its Robbie Williams, then i'll get a chance to see the rest of the site being nice and quiet while he's on 👍 part of me was a bit jealous of my mate who eschewed the EJ/pyramid throng, he took some amazing pics of the tiny crowds at the Glade and Other - but everyone there was having a lovely old time.
