How can we do this until the two NME headliners are revealed and the order of the acts anounced for said stage are revealed? Personaly I think the results should wait till then.

Your right, i just assumed early on that the first three names were the nme headliners.

I still think gossip and glasvegas are headlining though.

Lets wait til lostprophets are announced then, or at least we are sure.

Its still interesting that no one is close to the 45-50 bracket that was common last year.

That's probably because no-one predicted the lineup would be this crap.

Nah, its because of the day shift, which has completley screwed pretty much all the predictions.

Gossip are topping that particular bill. Glasvegas are playing under them.

Worse decision ever. I mean they had ONE hit, and no real album success. They are banking hugely on the new album doing well and I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out it had something to do with them being on the same record label...
