- Our very own Blanks wowed during his headline slot at VidCon last week, with his slot being the absolute standout of the show. He performed his latest song, ‘Sweaters’ to a crowd of thousands, getting the audience to sing along with him and stealing the show.
- In other cases, the slot reviews only the headline and maybe the lede before hitting the 'typeset' key. The slot is generally considered the last line of defense, but usually there's one more set of editorial eyes on the story: the makeup editor.
According to reports, Stevie Nicks and co have prompted Rumours they could be headlining the festival during its 50th anniversary.
Fleetwood Mac has set tongues wagging after it was reported they teased a headline slot at Glastonbury 2020.
A slot player from Hawaii hit an almost $790,000 jackpot at a downtown Las Vegas casino, then topped it off by winning another $5,000 while she was waiting to get paid, according to a news release.
The Dreams rockers played a huge show at London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday (16 June), where they played a career-spanning set of their greatest hits.
However, tweets begun emerging which reported the band told the crowd they still 'had a big field to play'.
Meanwhile, others claimed that the band made reference to 'a rained out festival in England next year'.

“I think the legend of Glastonbury and Fleetwood Mac will come true,” Mick Fleetwood told The Independent.
“I think I’ll burn in hell if we don’t do it one day.”
Meanwhile, it's already been let slip that The Beatles legend Paul McCartney is 'hopefully' set to play Glastonbury 2020.
Speaking to BBC Somerset, the festival founder Michael Eavis said: “Paul’s on good form at the moment.”
Asked by the reporter if he meant that McCartney would be heading to the festival, Eavis let slip: “Hopefully for the 50th.”

He added, rather sweetly, “But don’t make a big thing of it will you?”
