2011 Lineup

[Vieuphoria]

Would be a great booking... but dead certs is a bit much?

[beansontoastwithcheese]

fair point but i'd like to bet they're part of the lineup. having a flick through past posts its like old rfo on here, hello chaps

[Role Model]

Do the people who say 2009's headliners were weak not watch Radiohead? I'd agree the other mainstage headliners were poor though.

[SOAD]

Out of the main headliners Arctic Monkeys and Radiohead were incredible... and then on Friday Faith No More were unbelievable

[addsend]

2003 was the first year I went, now that was a good line up!

Why is Huw Stevens on the Radio 1 adverts saying that Zane Lowe is announcing the full R+L line up? I'm guessing this is a BBC mistake as it makes it sound like we are going to hear the line up that we normally don't get until about a month before the fest.

[VCK]

2009 had a really strong set of headliners, all three would have no problem selling out arenas and stadia, three of the biggest bands around at the time. Problem is, this resulted in a weak undercard.

Whereas with 2010, we only had one "conventional" headliner, the other two being a band who have never headlined a major UK festival before, and a reunion band who didn't reach headliner status the first time around. And the line-up was one of the strongest in recent years.

For the record, Radiohead were the only headliner I enjoyed in 2009.

I presume by full line up they mean he'll say every band that is in the first announcement- i.e every band that will appear on the initial line up poster

Better Festival Group, who do on site work at R/L I think, have confirmed Muse, Strokes and MCR.

An Oxegen sub and an Oxegen/TitP also ran it is then.

They don't actually know though.

[Guckeery]

Why would they tell people who do on site work who's headlining?

[Rudzkii]

And I imagine they'd give them a massive rollocking for leaking the headliners if it were true. I call shenanigans.

Last poster attempt before tomorrow

[Englishdragon]

This was played loads on Chris Moyles 52 hour show, think misterjam used it to wake him up.

[Clemo]

I hope to God no, this is so implausible, No 'heavy' headliner, even though MCR hardly count as that.

The NME would be 'heavier' on the Saturday, just no no no. Next please...

[PunkyKillick]

so many issues with that poster! lostprophets sub?

[Yellow_Fellow]

They were offered it in 2007.

[PunkyKillick]

this isnt 2007.

[brettredmayne]

Yup it was where I first heard it, Mistajam gave it to Chris to to use as a pick-me-up when he was feeling down during the 52 hours. I Imagine it getting played loads by Chris Moyles from now on.

Its my ringtone now, if I dont answer the phone in 5 seconds the bass cannon goes off
