So we pretty much know the headliners and everyone is saying Weezer, Paramore etc for other slots.

But what about bands to play low mainstage, low radio 1, Fest Republic who haven't been mentioned yet.

Asher Roth - could play somewhere on Radio 1 tent

Fenix TX - Pretty sure they got back together. could be wrong. Would deffo fit on LU. Good mates with Blink aswell.

Gym Class Heroes - Played the other year, drew a biggish crowd and went down quite well. No idea if they have any new stuff coming out or not. Could fit any stage really

Lonely Island - If someone was taking bets on proper random acts to play the fest I would stick a few quid on these. Just got a feeling. Plus everyone would go mad for "I'M ON A MOTHERf**kIN BOAT"

Hadouken! sorta hinted at something when I saw them in couple of weeks ago. They said they would be doing stuff in August. Might mean festivals, might mean something else xD
Dunno where they would play though, but I would go see them... again... for the third time in year. Damn good live.

Other than that, I hope 30STM play. Would love DKM or Flogging Molly (Both would be epic)... and if Korn was announced I think I would JIMP.

30STM, Biffy, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Hadouken and Electric Six.

Foos or GnR would make me JIMP too :P

I am 75% sure he will play. He himself has said he is in talks with Download, and a couple of others in the UK.
Other than Sonisphere, I think R+L would be the other best bet.

Four Year Strong would get a massive crowd. They are just immense. I'd advise anyone to get their new album it's brilliant
