... who would you have as the THREE headliners? You can pick anyone, not just alive or dead, but from any particularly peak period of their career.
I've thought this through a bit this morning and decided I'd go for
Bowie 1973 - obviously this doesn't give him much back catalogue but I think it'd be an electrifying performance
Britney, 'Blackout' period 2007, but including a run through her older iconic hits
Public Enemy circa 1988 - huge energy and dynamism, 'Black Steel', 'Don't Believe The Hype', 'Bring the Noise' and so on.
I think that was probably peak Britney, with Public Enemy and Bowie from these periods having a lot to prove and feeling they need to earn their place at the top of the bill, so bringing everything to it. (I'm imagining a huge music festival here, not my own garden).
They're all very distinct so there would be a really interesting shift of vibe and mood between each of the three acts, and I don't think any of them would dominate obviously over the others (whereas if you booked Bono he'd try to take over the entire show).
Might change my mind but I hope this is an interesting Friday game!
