I feel like an announcement must be looming?

If Biffy (and the crowd) are anything like this at Reading, it shall be an amazing performance.
 

 

Oh they will be, saw them in 2013 and they were fucking outstanding closing the festival, glad they get to do it again this year.

You are correct  this was on their snapchat

Well last year as this announcement we got Alt-J but they had left a ''special guest TBA'' slot for them, so i don't think we can really expect anything major, especially looking at the line up. Hoping for more in the day on Sunday, all the bands i want to see are towards the end.

[Cian T]

Wait, no.. The 12 year old who runs the snapchat has said Friday..

If any of you got tickets for The Wonder Years in Leeds today, I hate you. (except maybe for @Andre91 if he got one but then again MAYBE)

A reliable source has confirmed to me that Catfish are playing the secret set

Seeing as your last post was saying we were getting Green Day or Guns N Roses as a headliner i'm going to choose to not believe this one...

[campspeng]

What is the likelihood of Catfish being announced on friday?

0.0001% Too many big bands on the line up for them to fit in.

this needs to fucking die

Believe what you want but my mate knows the band and last week they told him they're doing the secret set.

Sounds like they're really big on keeping it a secret set

At this point i wouldn't be surprised if Reading made the secret set a co-headline.

[Andre91]

I'm expecting quite a few bands to be added from the Slam Dunk lineup now that has been and gone. Lots of bands to come for The Pit/Lockup.

I think the bottlemen are getting a bit carried away with themselves. Seriously a secret set?.

I don't see it either, when you compare them to previous secret sets they don't seem to be quite as big as the others. Although there's worse acts they could get for secret sets.

[VinylDelusion]

If it was a secret set on the FR stage kinda like Jamie T's in 2014 and then had a big slot on main stage next year, then I could possibly see it

[JSmurphy]

I guess it's still feasible for Catfish to slot in 4th on Main on Saturday? RHCP > Imagine Dragons > Courteeners > Catfish > EODM? Announcing them perhaps held until their album release?

Pretty good shout to be fair, there is still space for one more main stage act that day.

[The Ghost Of Eddie]

Big Rock/Punk announcement tonight on BBC Radio 1 Annie Mac and Daniel P Carter is joining her... wonder what this could be, plus new Moose Blood.

All dayer from 7pm.

I thought/hoped against the current would just be a fad band that faded out quickly as nobody other than kerrang were giving them any sort of notice. Another band with a pretty singer but not much in the way of talent.

But then Slaves would be 6th... and Parkway Drive 7th... 

Would be daft to hold them back for that when they've already been announced for every festival in the country as well.

It'll just be smaller names from here on in. Like early main/NME and mid-everything else.

[Andre91]

Yeah I was going to say, Slaves and Parkway won't play any lower than they already are. Parkway sold out Brixton on their last tour.
