2012 Lineup

[Clemo]

Green Day, Kasabian/Biffy, Foos

[SamSheppard]

Bloc Party/ Biffy Clyro

Killers

Foo Fighters

[mattl]

They could but both Less Than Jake & Gallows headlined in 2008 and to have both bands not healined in 3 years would seem odd imo.

I reckon Dropkick Murphys will headline one of the days this year.

[rockinthecasbah]

Paramore

Lostprophets

Incubus

Yeah Yeah Yeah's

The Killers

Editors

Placebo

Manic Street Preachers

Foo Fighters

Pendulum

Bullet For My Valentine

Maximo Park

[pink_triangle]

I can see one of green day and the Foos but not both. I imagine they would both be at the top end of cost in terms of booking them. Also think they share a similar fanbase which may mean they only go for one.

Foo Fighters

Kasabian

System Of A Down

[kibble]

Foo Fighters, Kasabian and Metallica. In that order for Reading.

[Yellow_Fellow]

Metallica will play 2013. Look at the pattern, 1998, 2003, 2008... 2013.

[RichieParf]

Metallica will play 2013. Look at the pattern, 1998, 2003, 2008... 2013.

[Yellow_Fellow]

When it's days, they don't.

When Metallica say;

"Come back every 5 years and play Reading - it's great" - Reading 2008 Information Booklet

They do.

[chappiepunk]

People keep finding patterns today. It annoys me that people think they exist.

[rexclark]

Blur, it just has to be.

Blur, Foo Fighters and a new act like Biffy would be a fantastic set of headliners and would shut up most people saying the festival is going down the tubes.

I'm sure next year will be big as the organisers realise they need to pull something out the bag, which can only benefit the punters.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

Feeder? Still big enough for NME headline? Not sure if they'd split the crowd well enough.

[Gingecredible]

My theory is this year was deliberately weaker.

No glastonbury= more punters.

More punters have less festivals to choose from.

Reading save money this year by having only 2 headliners and my chem.

step 4

PROFIT.
