Apparent Leak

[irons]

Spoke to someone tonight, Weezer are there, you spawny buggers.

ps The Bouncing Souls might put in an appearance yet.

The same guy who said that, said that the subways said they werent playing festivals due to recording a new album. Despite them playing numerous festivals over the summer.

I hope it's bull.

[voliminal]

if thats the lineup.. how much i wish i was going download instead!

id like to see a day to remember or atreyu at reading..

[tolywoly]

It's fake, thankfully.

[Duffbox]

that line up would be pretty good, seems quite likely, not as good as previous years but still not the worst

[Budweiser]

i wonder how it leaked, maybe they've seen the poster or somethink.

[Calm Like A Bomb]

That would be fantastic! I'm not sure what you're all expecting!?

Radiohead, Jane's Addiction, The Offspring, Weezer, Placebo, The Mars Volta, The Subways, Lostprophets, Rise Against.. sounds like a cracking main stage to me.

Unfortunately, this isn't a leak at all is it? It's no more than a prediction, and I think some of the predictions on these boards will be nearer the mark. If you're all dissapointed with that I can't help but worry that ticket day is going to be terrible for you...

If this rumoured lineup comes to fruition then "what a bag of arse". Dire, turgid, boring. Sonisphere & Download this year methinks.

Swap Charlatans and Glasvegas around and id be a very happy chappy with that line up.

A clash between Charlatans and Arctic Monkeys is unthinkable!

[thetime]

it would be a good lineup and could of been real until you see charlatans headlining evening session

stage.

Hello,

Any chance the subways will be playing any UK festivals this summer? perhaps t in the park or Reading and Leeds?

Cheers,

Fraz

That was my email to both The Cribs management team and The Subways management team (obviously subways replaced by the cribs in the email). Here's the replies.

The Subways

they won't be playing any of the ones you listed. They are spending most of the summer writing for the next album

and i didnt say they subways were playing no festivals in the summer. i said they wont be playing R+L. Get it right.

[frazzy27]

So it wasnt even the band you messaged. Jesus, the management arent going to cock up and say anything are they. They'll look at the tour dates and say exactly what that says.

[benissright]

if that doesnt suffice then you go and try and email them. see what info you get.

[frazzy27]

Did you email them or myspaz them? Im surprised if it was the latter, Charlotte usually messages back.

But im just saying, i wouldnt believe the management. They have likely just looked at their tour dates and thought that was it, or are deliberately hiding it.

[frazzy27]

I decided to start emailing bands UK agents to see if they have any idea if the bands are playing. I emailed Death Cab For Cutie's agent to back up the email i got from their management team. They r both quite conflicting. management say they r looking to play R+L and the agent states that its "quite unlikely" which is a bit shite.

emailed Barenaked Ladies agent as well cos i fancy seeing them, and he says he very much doubts it.

One postive is that the Cold War Kids got back to me and said they will know if they are playing R+L very soon.

[fatally_yours]

there's only 2 notable bands on that list, rise against and weezer.

if true, the worst initial line-up reading and leeds has had.

[problematique.]

Just had this fake poster linked too me, chances of many of these? I think it looks like a good shout.

Bar Franz Ferdinand etc.

[pigshair123]

seeing though the festival is taking place 28th to 30th it is ultimately a fake and a EPIC FAIL of all proportions
