dentalplan Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 3 minutes ago, randlfan said: Royal Blood, Kendrick, Foos are headlining. Royal Blood are headlining outright, not coheadlining. Thirty Seconds to Mars, Dua Lipa, The Hunna, J Hus, Courteeners, Don Broco, SZA, Wolf Alice, Nothing But Thieves, PVRIS, Travis Scott, Krept & Konan, Faithless have all been booked. Yep that's a completely believable lot. I see more in this than any other source that's come forward in the last couple of weeks. Probably because I was about to post a prediction with 13 of those 16 acts so it makes sense to believe it. Faithless is weird tho. "Faithless (DJ set)" surely?

I'm not sure on the specifics, I was just given a list of names and it just said 'Faithless', but I'd guess it's a DJ set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randlfan Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 This is now my personal speculation - I have no idea who is playing where other than the main stage headliners. Friday - Royal Blood / Thirty Seconds to Mars. NME headliner - The Hunna. Saturday - Kendrick Lamar / Dua Lipa. NME headliner - Wolf Alice. Sunday - Foo Fighters / Courteeners. NME headliner - Travis Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know it's name yet. Might not even come back. 9 minutes ago, Mattymooz said: Dua Lipa at R&L rather than zombie V tho? We do get some surprises though. Would be a statement to have a woman who is fair crushing it at the moment in a high up place. Admittedly more pop than I've ever seen a main stage R+L booking but pop singers play the smaller stages all the time so maybe not so out of place. edit: forgot about Daphne & Celeste. I ain't got no alibi. Edited January 31, 2018 by dentalplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastRecedes Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Dua Lipa into Kendrick would make a lot of sense to be fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I think given that Thirty Seconds to Mars are in Germany on Wednesday and Hungary on Thursday; it's unlikely they'll be at Reading or Leeds on Friday (maybe at a stretch Leeds Friday/Reading Sunday but I don't expect as much) so I think they'll sub whoever's headlining Saturday at Reading - be it Kendrick or Foos.

Apart from chemical brothers, friendly fires and the Amazons there isn’t much there that I would want at Reading. CATB and George Ezra headlining feels very weak, thought they would have got one of the gallagher brothers in. Went last year and it’s such a nice festival and location but I won’t return this year. Hoping for Reading to drop a blinder now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say that’s fake based purely on Arctic Monkeys logo. Their social media and other announcements are using a new style logo for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
