Yeah someone always used to have them low down Main on all of their predictions. Anyway, every single one of these predictions needs more Battles.

SomeoneListeningIn Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 where do we think King Krule will play if he does? Currently got him down 8th NME, but feel that may be a bit low. 5th/6th NME? Or maybe even FR headline/2nd FR? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane gibbons Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 I think the killers have a high chance of playing as they aren't doing anything big so they might play Leeds and also 2008! Is a joke they need to play soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a joke they need to play soon They're in Europe in June so they're more likely to do IOW or something. They're already coming over to Europe twice next year, they won't come over again in August.

LRDJ Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 Personally, although I think it's unlikely, I'd love Green Day to play, possibly doing their latest compilation CD as a set plus a few extras. They'll probably be at TRNSMT though I'd have thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UndergroundSound Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 8 hours ago, SomeoneListeningIn said: So at this point, is this a fair summary? Foos seemingly nailed on AM a possibility, but looking like they might be doing Tramlines instead Kendrick potentially around Europe at the end of summer, but nothing more solid than that Royal Blood would probably at least coheadline if R&L are willing to give them the push. If they do coheadline, it'll probably be with Paramore or another act that hasn't been suggested much (QOTSA looking unlikely now) Arcade Fire a new suggestion, potentially around Europe at the end of Summer as well Florence is a smaller possibility, potentially coheadline with Royal Blood, but I think the chances she plays in 2018 are slim Then finally The Killers, who also look very unlikely at this point as they're in Europe early summer Anyone I've missed off? At this point I'm still leaning towards Royal Blood/Paramore, Foos, Kendrick. Potentially replace Kendrick with Arcade Fire, and change Paramore to someone else or let Royal Blood headline outright with a decent undercard. Looks like that covers everything to me, looking like it’s going to be a good year for headliners at least whatever happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its hard to tell whether his current tour is understating his popularity or whether I'm overstating it. Id've expected him to be 3rd/4th NME but really difficult to place him.

Andre91 Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 All Time Low have said that they will be touring So Wrong It’s Right in full next year. They’ve been predicted a lot anyway and I could see them doing it in full at R&L. It’s only 40mins long so they could either do it on the Main Stage or headlining the NME. I’d be more inclined to go for a third down Main slot. If they do, it’s the only time I would ever watch ATL again. That album is some real nostalgia for me.

Jericode Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Where have you seen that? I know they were doing a few shows of the album in full in the States, haven't seen anything more than that. My girlfriend is a huge ATL fan so I'd be very interested.

bigcharlie65 Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 honestly after seeing the trnsmt announcement I'm pretty shocked that courteeners are higher than wolf alice and liam Gallagher headlining I really don't think he has shot up in the last year to be a headliner. I think this ads up that wolf alice can either be a NME headliner or 3rd down as It would be pretty shocking that if they would do reading to have them higher then the TRNSMT line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it being 5 days they'd struggle to get 5 huge headliners obviously so I think it's probably a good booking. Dont think anyone was predicting anything less for wolf Alice, definitely deserve those slots at the very least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this ads up that wolf alice can either be a NME headliner or 3rd down as It would be pretty shocking that if they would do reading to have them higher then the TRNSMT line up I'm not surprised at all, Liam Gallagher is absolutely massive at the moment, his album has done extremely well, his tour sold out within seconds (sold faster than Noel's.), as did his FInsbury Park gig and I imagine so will his big Manchester gig. Everyone's liking his new album, plus people will go just to see him crack out a few Oasis songs, everyone knows most of the hits he sings from the Oasis years. Courteeners wouldn't be higher up than Wolf Alice if it wasn't Liam headlining. The crowd that will go for Liam will more than likely love Couteeners so will have two of their favourite artists back to back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Yeah I'd say Courteeners and Wolf Alice are pretty much equivalent in size right now. They'd both play third down at R&L with a slight chance of them subbing maybe if they've blown their load on big headliners. The fact that Courteeners will appeal more to a Liam Gallagher crowd is probably what has them subbing above Wolf Alice, as others have said.
