Why?

For the reasons I stated in the post.

Then you might want to check when the legends slot is.

Madonna is one for certain.

She had to be.

Too big even now for the legends set.

Would be seem as a musical baton passing from her to Swift.

Which is what I think Elton was trying to do with his guests.

Add on that What's the story pisses all over sales wise anything Pink Floyd has done in the UK.

A bit trite...

Dark Side and What's the Story have similar sales figures, of course it's in the US that Floyd sold the most.

OK there's the official legends slot which is some very old timer eg Cat Stephens sunday afternoon.

Then there's the Sunday headliner slot where they always put a legend that's too big to be given the earlier slot (ie Elton John, The Who, The Cure, Stevie Wonder, Bowie in 2000, Kylie Minogue 2005 etc.)

Madonna isn't headlining on Friday or Saturday, that'll be kept for artists who are at the top of their game.

If two female headliners have been booked already, then probably Swift on Saturday night and Madonna (a la Reg) to close on Sunday with a spectacular show.

Just leaves a legends spot on Sunday afternoon and the Friday headliner act.

Neither Oasis reformed or Floyd fit that bill.

As this is just fantasy and conjecture I'll stick in Depeche Mode for Friday evening and have a 40 year old reunion ABBA for Sun at 6pm.

I’d love it to be Pink Floyd next year… Or any year to be fair before one of them croaks

If they manage to get Gilmour and co there, you could well see Kate Bush there too and that would be worth at least one testicle.

Like Taylor Swift in (cancelled) 2020? Or Kendrick Lamar last year? Or Ed Sheeran in 2017? There isnt such a thing as sunday night legends slot.
