1) when are they?
2) where are they?

[lharris92]

2. they're at wakestock if you want
1. 8th-10th july

[Banana Co]

I think that IF they are announced it will be late may/early June. The next question is hard to answer, but I think Sunday main, however; if Muse have a 2 hour set then maybe not and I guarantee that Pulp and The Strokes will have 1h30 sets.
My overall view, however; is that they wont play. I just have a feeling that they won't.

This.
You never know, they may be playing a secret set at some point, maybe on the Festival Republic Stage?

I reckon they aren't playing and someone looked at the old tour dates on Johnny Mars website again.

[The Mean Bean]

I'd love them to play but I just don't see it happening unless it's a secret gig.

[FiestaDave]

They'll play Leeds on the Thursday.

[mrtourette]

Or them (Leeds) and The Subways (Reading) will play secret slots somewhere on the bill.

I really do hope that's true. You got anything to back that up (please have something to back it up)?

Its the only think I can think of, there's deffo nowhere left on the Bill as it stands.

The fact they're at Waksestock is the only think that makes me think it could happen (as its a reason for them not be announced), otherwise it seems like a completely daft rumour

[JAnderson]

Tbf if they're TBC on here they're more than likely playing in some shape or form.

Yeah exactly, surely if they were only playing Thursday Leeds Efestivals wouldn't have put it on the Reading Lineup page?!

Can't see them doing the Thursday at Leeds. The biggest act to do the Thursday were The Pigeon Detectives and that was a "secret" gig. I would say The Cribs are a bigger draw than them especially at Leeds and it would be dangerous to have them playing while there's no more acts on. I would love them to do the Thursday though!

Nothing to back it up, just the ramblings of a crazy bloke.

no chance of them playing in my opinion. if their last date is 30th july they wont wait till a month later to do their last gig i dont reckon. plus they play all the time and would be wise to wait till their next record is out before playing R/L again.

also you will notice a trend with their dates, they're playing smaller and less well known festivals, presumably on purpose. they will definitely wait till the main promotion push next time around to appear.
