Plucking a number from thin air probably 50/60%?   Olivia 85% 1975 60% Neil 50%   But as things stand I don’t think there’s other names in the frame being put out there. Fred is definitely out, and talk of Sam Fender and Stevie vanished.   Like you I’m hoping his name stays on the bill!

Nah they'll be playing bigger festivals going forward 

Do we have a list of additions between First Poster and Full Line Up for 2023?

I think Bowie is different - again with the UK cultural relevance like Macca or Elton. You can outright dislike those three but still name plenty of their songs.   Like the other person mentioned; I think many would struggle to name 5 Cash or Dylan songs despite how legendary their names are. And to be fair to Neil he can put on a much “bigger” performance than those 2, he isn’t just a sing songwriter with an acoustic he has some of the best Rock n’ Roll chops around.    I think it’s fair for people to acknowledge some bookings outside of their taste can still be good bookings! I’ve missed a good chunk of Pyramid headliners, but still get they should definitely be headlining other whomever I’m seeing on West Holts or whatever. I’ve even given some a chance like Sheeran before departing for greener pastures.

There hasn't been any real slander so far has there? Did someone say Neil was bringing the apocalypse? I've only really seen mild indifference and doubt in this thread.     I'd argue that while they are undoubtedly more well known, most people couldn't name 5 Dylan or Cash songs.
