Saw them headline WH in 2013 and it’s one of my favourite festival gigs. Was such a top vibe, whole crowd dancing away.

 

Sunday afternoon is going to be absolutely epic with Rod into Chic 

Brilliant night, that. Absolutely there for Nile in ‘25.

They need Sunday afternoon/evening to be a a real party, you dont wont to be heading into a fallow year on an anti-climax, you want the punters and TV audience to be begging for more! Rod into Nile (so to speak) ending with Stevie would be just the ticket. Squeeze in a Duran to Duran, Simple Minds or Tears for Fears in the middle of those somewhere and it could be one of the best Sundays theres been, the locals would lap it up too and avoid a half empty field at the end of the night as people start to head home early. Would be an sustained massive crowd from the time Rod comes on to the end of the night...

2013 for WH I think.

Terrifying that was 11 years ago. What a night that was

Ditto - my friends and I still refer to the Chic WH headline set as the best night of our lives. Absolute perfection of a festival crowd/vibe 🕺

Great performer, but it'll be a similar set to 2017, no? Loved before, but not grabbing me that much to see the same.

It was a fantastic weekend with the Stones as well.

It'll be a similar set because he knows people want the bangers.  But he's got a massive catalogue of material to make some tweaks here and there.  And the potential for special guests is massive too.
