    That first Transgressive slot is already confirmed as a DJ set by the person doing in, on their socials. Can't remember who.

    Yep. Jess Iszatt is playing during the first progressive takeover set.

    Odd question: are their toliets available there?

     

    The idea of queueing for half an hour and then needing to leave for a wizz isn't inviting.

     

    Same goes for Stonebridge and NYC Downlow I guess, does anyone know?

    Where are the slots this year, 2-3 on Sunday at John Peel. Anywhere else?

    That's it for the 5 poster stages.C eleste still needs replacing, so keep watch of that

     

    BBC introducing will have some, lots on Williams green too.

  14. Arcade Fire or Pendulum

    in Reading & Leeds Festivals

    From a person who has seen both (and went to both through my own choice, so this isn't a biased opinion) definitely Arcade Fire.

    Arcade Fire-Great atmosphere, breathtaking, funny(someone lobbed a shoe at Win Butler) and a really great set and performance

    Pendulum-Terrible sound set-up, crap interaction with the audience, just pretty poor showmanship, if you want loud noises(I stress noises) to jump around to go to them.

  16. Heavy band on the last day?

    in Leeds Festival

    From my experiences the rioting was pretty extreme when I last went, all the pylons being dragged down and so on, not dangerous, just crazy- and that was after The Killers headlining, thoughts on what it's going to be like with G n R, especially if they're late on and cock around the audience?

  18. Will this years line up top last years?

    Better than the crap that is KoL(the first two albums are good in my books, the latest was boring tripe) and Arctic Monkeys who were crap live

    G n R aren't my cup of tea but they are f**king huge, Arcade Fire are thought of as one of the best bands in the world by critics, and have an immense live atmosphere, a Libertine reunion(if they are for some reason a headliner) would have tons of hype surrounding it-setting reading/leeds above other festivals.

    Blink 182 are a bit boring in my book, but there first and only UK concert in how many years?

    The exclusivity of it all makes it good, and the fact that none of these huge bands have toured in a long time

  21. Other stages

    QOTSA brought a huge audience to the main stage in 08-it'd be stupid to put them in a tent

    Arcade Fire do arena tours and have played the same slot as QOTSA before(regardless of whether you like them or not, they clearly have a large fan base-which hasn't reduced in size particularly)-it'd be stupid to put them in a tent, even if they are less riotous than QOTSA

    Expect the usual Indie type of headliners plus Hole:

    W.A.S

    Hole

    MGMT/Maccabees/Interpol

    Lockup:

    Bad Religion

    Gallows(?)

    FR:

    Delphic

    The xx

    Broken Bells/Late of the Pier/Bon Iver

  22. Out of the blue...

    Most people who have been here long enough know only be slightly skeptical of Neil, as he gets it right a huge majority of the time-especially with reading/leeds, the sites reputation is important.

    Yes a different headliner is possible, but it's extremely unlikely that he hasn't heard of it this close to the announcement.

    I get the impression this blur rumour has come from speculation and wishful thinking.
