This obsession with gender needs to stop. Runs deeper than that pal but I don't want another argument Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically the slot they are in is 3rd down as it is a coheadliner. TBH you could swap ADTR with Wolf Alice and that would be fine, I just think Wolf Alice would suit the NME better and would cater to the more alt rock audience than RB/Paramore.

But I kinda agree maybe she'll play slightly lower down the lineup. Also, made more tweaks to my prediction, kinda ended up with an awful Sunday NME line up, and I'm worried the Friday main may be too rocky.... on second thoughts, this is too up my street to be real.. never before in all 27 years of the festival has there been a trio of headliners where I've wanted to see all of them, and then on top of that i'd want to see two of the NME headliners, two of the FR headliners and two of the 1xtra headliners. And that's before Chvrches likely slot in somewhere. So yeah needs some missable boring shite like Enter Shikari/Courteeners/Jamie T/Imagine Dragons stuffed in there high up to alleviate the clashes a bit IMO.

Enter Shikari are not boring. How could you even say that lol, have you seen them live? Regardless on whether you like their music, they are one of the most energetic bands live and they put on an amazing show! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really think CHVRCHES will play next year? IMO it's a lot more likely they'll do maybe a secret set next year and sub the year after after the new album? Or maybe if the new albums blows up a bunch secret set next year, headline latitude 2019 then coheadline R+L 2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TapeRecorder Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Will Rise against still be around by august? If so, I could see them main or headline lock up. Although to be fair, I've predicted them to be there for the last two years without success. That poster is ideal for me other than the lock up but eh, would be nice to see Bury Tomorrow headline the Pit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possible NME headliner? I'm guessing they're playing especially after how well their new album went down. Saw the start of their set (but then left for Carpenter Brut) and it was pretty good tbh. Pretty small crowd though so I dunno.... I hope to see them next year (have them pegged for 4th down main) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but when judging a band on whether they should play a festival or not it should be purely on the questions of 'does this band make good music?' 'Are they good live?' 'Will they help bring the punters in?' and gender is absolutely irrelevant to any of these questions. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIchael_scarn Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Can definitely see a high slot for the wombats this festival. Sub at community and a new album on the way they'll probably sit 3rd/4th main stage or headline the nme tent. Despite not being everyone's taste and languishing in that mid 2000's indie rock/pop phase that people seem to have got sick of now, Glitterbug was a good album and they are extremely good at hyping up a crowd. Pinned on to be there next year for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not their biggest fan but I thought they were still quite popular and improved on their 4th down NME slot in 2016?? Also don't think BBK and royal blood is a great mixture maybe them before Drake would be better and replace chainsmokers with a more rocky alternative to go with RB. Rest look pretty good but the likes of chainsmokers and stomzy being so high of a possibility really disappoints me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
