Whist planning a visit to Slane (music festival in Ireland) a friend and I wondered what the ultimate 6 band/artist line-up would be. Pick from band/artist (alive or dead). Mine (INPO) would be Talking Heads, James, Bon Jovi, Lynyrd Skynyrd, REM, Guns 'n' Roses. Not my fav 6 bands of all time, but the best open air line-up.
Based on previous festival appearances that have been generally viewed as 'classic', how about Pulp (Glasto 96), Radiohead (Glasto circa 99 or 00), Orbital (Glasto circa 94), Hendrix (Woodstock 69), Oasis (Glasto 94 - NOT their headlining appearance a few years later) and Nirvana (Reading circa 92)?
ok then how's about this for eclectic......Status quo for the Rawk.....Garth Brooks for the Yeehaw....Level 42 for a bit of bass guitar tomfoolery.....Runrig for the celticness of it.....Queen for the sheer fun of the band.....and to finish the evening Pink Floyd for the light show, the sounds and the songs!!! Hhmmm where can i get a ticket eh?
