Lineup 2016

[Andre91]

Does anyone remember the YUNG LEAN guy who kept trolling here a few years ago  ? Bet he's pleased now. 

Oh and they've only actually added two acts to the Main Stage lineup? And STILL no Wonder Years.

Ngl I think the lineup is decent, Nas is a pretty big addition but it's looking like he'll clash with RHCP which is annoying

[Gozpot]

The clashes are terrible, all the good acts seem to be up against each other

This is fucked, compared to the Europeans festivals, reading and Leeds have fucked up

[oneoftherest]

Good Charlotte clashing with anyone but Biffy would've been fine

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Thrice is a nice addition. Where are the bloody Wonder Years!? 

[PastRecedes]

Good Charlotte might not clash with Biffy, the Pit headliner doesn't always play at the same time as main stage headliner do they?

[Gozpot]

How did R+L miss out on so many good acts that were touring? Look at some that are doing Europe, so quality bands there and we get dumped with this, having second thoughts about getting a ticket now

[oneoftherest]

Boy Better Know on the main stage? Wtf?

[oneoftherest]

They aren't gonna have them clash with Fall Out Boy are they, exactly the same kinda crowd

[Gozpot]

Good Charlotte will either clash with Biffy or FoB, more of a fan crossover with FoB so they won't clash with them, which leaves Biffy sadly

[oneoftherest]

In good news, TDCC don't clash with Chillis

[PastRecedes]

Just realised there's only been 8 acts announced for Saturday and Sunday on the main stage when there's usually 9. Could be that they're doing less this year but I reckon a couple more additions will come.

[Gozpot]

That's about the only piece of good news

We don't know that Nas performance is on last tbf.

[Gozpot]

Just hoping they do the smart thing, make Gc start about 10 minutes before the end of FOB and finish around the start of Biffy

[oneoftherest]

Ffs thought it said closing set

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Nas is playing before Haim according to the line up page so he won't clash with Chillis, TDCC still will.

[SOAD]

Not the best announcement but looking reasonable running order wise so far. Friday I'll do the two Franks. Maybe Nothing but Thieves. The Lock Up till Chvrches. Back for Thrice and then Foals. Staurday do Skindred, maybe Slaves and EODM on main and rest of the time in the Pit (except for maybe Anderson Paak). Sunday mix between Pit and NME except for Biffy and Coheed on main.

Oh for fucks sake it gets even worse

[oneoftherest]

I really would've thought GC would pull too big of a crowd for that tent

[Gozpot]

Look how weak the subs look, Chvrches, Imagine Dragons and The Vaccines...

[BeddingatReading]

What does everyone think about the Nas "special performance" are we assuming that he's closing the tent?? Hope not because I'd quite like to see TDCC and RHCP

[she bangs the drums]

Not a great announcement for me, not enough to make me pay £200 + but will wait and see if I can get a ticket for £130-£150.

I may be out of touch on this, but how are Wombats 2nd from top on the NME? They haven't done anything for years? I thought they would be more of a 2nd or 3rd from top on the Festival Republic these days or am I missing something?

Good Charlotte is one of few bands out of announcement I would like to see but they clash with Biffy which is typical.

 

[oneoftherest]

Imagine Dragons aren't really a weak sub.
