King Blues are going downhill. I really can't see them headlining the Lock-Up now with the radio friendly pop music they are starting to produce.

I know this will probably get a lot of reaction and people will shoot me down, as they are getting pretty big at the moment. However, I used to love them a few years ago and now they have totally changed their musical style. I strongly believe they've done this for financial gain, which is fine, but they have certainly lost a fan and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Listen to their first album then listen to 'Headbutt' - it's totally different.

Their new music is not suitable for the Lock-up, in my opinion. They'd be more suited to the NME stage.

Just had a Facebook message from the BBC Radio 1 Punk Rock Show with Mike Davies:

"The Lock Up Stage at Reading and Leeds 2010 will be announced on The Punk Rock Show with Mike Davies this coming Monday night (05/24)..."

Now we know a new confirmed date, let the anticipation, excitement and final hopes/wishes/guesses begin... :P

I'm gonna be pissed if NOFX do headline. I saw em in cardiff last year and they were absolutely appalling, they couldn't even play their instruments properly and kept getting their powerchords wrong. 20 years and they can't even play their own simple songs, unbelievable.

Dan Regan of Reel Big Fish has tweeted that he hasn't heard anything about R&L and doesnt think they'll be doing it, thought I'd stick that on here rather than start a new topic! Disappointing but it does just about rule out one potential lockup headliner!

    • I’ve said it elsewhere too but Emily Eavis said a 2028 headliner was booked, to me that’s only going to be someone the size of Oasis or Taylor Swift
    • Christ didn't even see that! 
    • It does feel very bland. It would certainly spell another year (my third, I think) away from Pyramid headliners for me. That doesn't mean they aren't worthy, though. I don't follow what any of them are up to, as it isn't my thing. Good luck to them.   You would think coming off a fallow year, they would want one big hitter. 'Big hitter' is obviously open to debate, but that was/is Madonna. Let's have it right. The eggs have gone in that basket, and it seems (as far the rumours go) that it's blown up. So now you're left with another plan B/replacement headliner.   I'm still of the opinion that Oasis will do it, before the Oasis thing is all said and done. Probably 2028, if they can come to an agreement. It may transpire that 2027 is bland (or at least to some of us), and 2028 is a bit... wild.   Again, though, none of us categorically know ANY of the headliners, as it stands.
    • Second go.....    Still f**king fantastic - Well done WIlliam Orbit -  Bugman & Trimm Trabb mega tracks - No Distance Left To Run hauntingly Beautiful  
    • Just realised it was 13 he produced not this one DOH!!!!
