I think GNR are looking pretty likely to be honest. I have a 'feeling' they're going to play. Don't ask why, I just do. It would be epically awesome though.

Blink
Paramore

Arcade Fire
Gorrliaz or Manics

My Chemical Romance
Lost Prophets

MCR day woulda had a bigger band playing (Green Day I think) but as Niel said, something fell through. And unless FR have been fast off the line to get a replacement headliner such as GNR, Its gonna be that.

Which because of Gorrilaz or Manics, MCR, LostProphets Im a happy chappy :P

I would be happier with those headliners than the others mentioned. I would quite like two days with decent headliners (gorillaz and arcade fire) and one day with a 'heavier' headliner
that way you can have MCR and Lostprophets headlining the NME when AF and Gorillaz are on or mainstage before Blink to satisfy all the people on these boards wanting dross like Guns and Roses to play.

You have a point there, about MCR & Lostprophets same time as Gorillaz, just hopefully it comes true(yn)

Weak.

I've never been to R/L and I wont be anytime soon with that sorta line up.

Altough Gorillaz would be pretty cool.

I'm not sure about Guns playing, They were heavily rumoured for DL which wont happen as they are a headline act.. They played in 02 so you never quite know. They have Swedish and a Finnish date, I can hope anyway.

They said they would want to play some reasonable size gigs in the UK, but not to big, so I think second on mainstage at R+L would be perfect.
Also the 6 gigs in the UK are for testing the live band to Coachella, and that is a lot of testing for just one festival. I've got my fingers crossed at least.

For R+L, it is weak. Checking the previous line ups since this is my first time, I have usually wanted to see at least 2 headliners, which is more than Glasto and anywhere else I see. But, I think the people going are just gonna have to deal with it. There's gonna be so many more acts that people will want to see, and at the same time as the headliners, there is still another 2/3 acts going on.

I'm hoping for GnR but I really don't know how likely it is they'll play.

me either.

why are guns n' roses a real option now? and why do people want them? they will be awful and murder all the good stuff they have

FR better have good stuff on the NME stage and a decent act on the dance stage if they fill the line-up with half the stuff being mentioned on these boards
