That could be said about any band though. If your wating for a headliner.

Heres a situation, both on second to MCR, as stated before love em or hate em band. I think more people would be likely to stay through pendulums set then go elsewhere afterwards to watch something else, than would stay at Dizzee's ( discounting the fans of each act that would stay whatever).

Just what I think you obviously think different. Niether though, I would put up to sub-headlier yet. Third on is about right for both, IMO.

Third placement i agree with for both.
I disagree that more people would walk for Dizzzee than Pendulum but that's life.

I just wouldn't know who to put under Arcade Fire.

A long shot but Gorillaz? (I wish)

You sir,are deluded.
Dizzee is a FAR bigger act than Pendulum.

Thats crap and Dizzee Rascal has not had numerous number one albums. He hasn't even had one number 1 album ffs! And Pendulum's latest album actually achieved a higher position than any of Dizzee's albums have. He plays large academys and though he will sell them out, Pendulum have moved from selling large academys out to playing small arenas with a few bigger ones such as Wembley Arena when touring. Dizzee is actually playing 2 arenas on his tour but only because he has Lily Allen with him who last year was playing arenas by herself and I've no doubt who the majority of ticketholders will be buying tickets will be planning on seeing. Pendulum are also headlining Rockness and imo are a bigger act than Dizzee Rascal and I'd say your the deluded one if you think he is a FAR bigger act them. If you just said bigger fair do's, I'd disagree but no way is he as large as you think he is.

My bad on the number one albums,i thought he had.
Pendulum are headlining ONE of the Arena's at Rockness,not the entire festival.That's like saying Lostprophets headlined last year when they headlined the NME.

Yeah but it was a mixture she also played arenas in birmingham, glasgow, nottingham, liverpool and I think a few others and they all sold well. I.e She didn't need Dizzee with her to play the MEN and the o2 but he would have needed her.

Just checked on the Rockness website and yeah your right they are headlining the second stage, my mistake. When I read it on the NME website it gave the impression that they were headlining the fest on the Friday but then again it is the nme.
