Arcade Fire would be fantastic headliners. Don't forget Wake Up with David Bowie guesting; sends a chill down my spine.

Desperately want the Eminem whispers to be true. I very much doubt it (on the basis that the headliners seem pretty much sorted) but I'm buying a day ticket really to see The Libertines so I sincerely hope.. massive fan of Eminem, would be a great coup.

I seriously worry about the state of things when people claim noty to have heard of Arcade Fire or never even heard any of there songs. They aren't exactly Kings Of Leon but they aren't TV On The Radio either. They are a big band with a huge following and I really hope they headline the Main stage as it will be a great step forward for the festival organisers because trust me, this band will keep growing in size and it will be great foresight for R&L to say we were there first.

Honest to god Arcade Fire will absolutely own that main stage in ways the likes of Razorlight, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand and Arctic Monkeys can only dream of

They have one hell of a live show and the only thing that restricted that in 07 was the RHCP fans sitting through it.

Just listened to a few of their songs on itunes. They seem ok, but it's not really my kind of music. Don't recognise any of their songs (and I did try!)

I couldn't believe the number of people who didn't know any Pearl Jam songs when they played a few years ago. It's sometimes easy to assume that things that are well known to you should be known by everyone!

For those of you who don't think Arcade merit a main stage headline slot check this out from their performance in 2007 and weep.....ah the magical and epic memories with the sun setting & all.... :P:P

    • Tbf that happened to me in 2022 so not a one off. 40 euros to drive down 3 streets. I'd have done a runner but the reason for getting the taxi in the first place is cos I couldn't walk no more. 
    • I was fully prepared (waterproof jacket, extra pair of socks, foldable umbrella), but after four hours in the rain (from Geese through Oklou to Florence Road), it was just too much. Already at the hotel, let's hope tomorrow's better.
    • It’s rare that I watch question time, but I almost felt sorry for Kenyon, he seemed like a guy just brought off the street which effectively is what he was, made worse by the fact Burnham and the Tory guy were very strong debaters. I think Burnham was very aware not to go too hard on Kenyon and risk him getting sympathy, in fact he pretty much ignored him.
    • Shambles. Transport and comms garbage. Been looking forward to this since last June and have never been to a more disorganised festival in 30+ years.  Why we were told the whole festival was cancelled for the night if they had put back shows for a few hours?  Pissed off to say the very least and put a huge downer on the rest of the weekend.
    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
