Lineup 2018

[KingPin]

I still can't get my head around the PATD booking. Absolutely ridiculous.

[Stuielooie]

Guess they've given us a shitty lineup as there is no competition of people going to glasto

[Takyon]

Do we reckon that the full poster will be released around early April time like it was last year? Seems like the delay in announcements was down to booking issues rather than the new PR company as they seem to be doing things in much the same way.

Trying to sort my clashfinder out, where do we think The Blaze will play? I had them heading FR but I really don't know where they suit. High NME?

[Custard320]

It's weird to think that the lineup probably would have been better received WITHOUT Panic! At The Disco on it at all.

I don't understand how they can say that indie fans can be happy when they release just the Wombats?  

I'm not a big fan of indie rock but calling The Wombats "genre-defining" seems a bit harsh on the other bands in the genre.

Surely the dance tent?

[danz026]

Anyone seen this Blossoms drama on Twitter? Could be the end of that band.

I initially thought that but the few songs I've heard seem a bit too chilled for the dance tent. If that high on the announcement then if they're on the Dance they'd have to sub Annie Mac and I don't know they just seem a lot more chilled than what's usually expected of higher up that tent.

For anyone (everyone) feeling a little upset with the line up, entertain this idea:

7.55 Wednesday Morning - RandL posts on twitter a video starting with the words ‘Reading and Leeds - Have you heard your 4 headliners!’ with pictures of KL, P!, KoL and FoB

The ‘4’ then flickers and switches to a ‘6’

Do I Wanna Know heard faintly in the distance 

[Steve1000]

Out of interest, is there anyone here who likes the lineup a lot?

Looks like they've booted the drummer out so will presumably just get a new one and carry on making shite music

Blossoms are shite. The Hunna are shite. You have shite control of your emotions and are generally a shite poster / person.

If it’s fake then it rubs me up the wrong way that they’ve done it on the anniversary of their mates dying...

[smileii]

Of my friends, those who were considering Wireless or don’t really care about the music are loving it, but the more ‘indie’ among us can’t see anything worth spending £200 on. I think dental’s right in that they’ll bulk out the undercard with indie over the next couple of announcements, but our custom will be long gone by then, Community or Y Not gives us a much better lineup for a lot less. There will be a demographic shift I think.

I agree whole heartedly. 

[Gucci Piggy]

People keep saying that in terms of indie music the likes of YNOT have blown them out the water. But let's not forget the likes of YNOT are also absolute syphilis this year, too.
