It used to be, but GFL/Emily have referred to it as the Legends slot/the act playing as the Legend in the last couple of years. GFL/Emily bigging up the act as something special has also meant that expectations for a "legend" have increased. There's been plenty of acts who could have been "Legends" that played Fridays/Saturdays and were just lumped into the lineup with no special fuss, eg Burt Bacharach. There's nothing to stop GFL just putting out a poster in future with 3 headliners at the top and then a load of Pyramid acts, a few of them heritage acts, and no big special mention of a specific Legend/4th headliner/Teatime Slot act. I think everyone would forget/move on within a few days. -
Some of my pals came in on local Sunday tickets, got a pic up by the Glastonbury sign and then just watched football... didn't catch a single act before leaving... totally bizarre Nick Grimshaw was in audience for Dua Lipa and spent entire time lemon faced and using his phone before leaving maybe 15 mins early to go to Charli XCX

Ran into Andy Serkis at Idles. He was having a lovely old chat to the bar staff and kindly indulged my request for a photo! Fast forward to Saturday and he popped up on stage to play sax for Nitin Sawhney. Seemed like a very nice, down to earth chap based on my very brief exchange! -
I'll give a special shout out to Lulu, and also Toyah, who were both wonderful in the Avalon Tent. You could tell they just loved performing, and clearly weren't bothered it wasn't a "TV stage" - that's the spirit of Glastonbury for me. I'm sure Kasabian would have been a highlight for me if I could have seen them... I was in Woodsies, but couldn't see the stage (or big screens!) from where I was - great atmosphere in crowd though. Also loved Norman Cook appearing with Paul Heaton... Sleaze at the Bimble Inn... Primary School Assembly Bangers... and the weird performance of Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé's "Barcelona", in a boat, at midnight, on the stream below the bridge by the Circus Field... love stumbling upon stuff like that!
