Wait a minute,you've implied that MCR are headlining for months.Now you're not sure if they're headlining?

I've never said I was certain. I'm no more certain now than I was when I first listed them.

It remains the case that I believe the names I'd listed back then are more likely to be right than wrong. But at the end of the day that means "I don't know if MCR are headlining R/L this year or not".

[eFestivals]

He's heard rumors recently of them being bumped down due to the poor tour figures with Prodigy taking their place.

TBH, there's probably as much substance in that snippet I heard as in one of OKB's tips.

if mcr did not headline, who would?

I think it'll probably be Green Day if MCR don't headline. Love to say Blur, but I doubt it.

Radiohead being back so soon would be a little too good to be true.

[saints15]

Dark horses - Mumford and Sons, Queens of the Stone Age, Primal Scream

[Role Model]

Would be too good for words that, bit too adventurous for Reading though.

[onemangang]

Well it wouldn't be you, would it?

I don't know. Could have a multitude of bands to play with.

Usual suspects - Green Day, RHCP, Radiohead

Dark horses - Mumford and Sons, Queens of the Stone Age, Primal Scream

Impossible - Queen, Joy Division, Elvis

the smiths reunion anybody? I would love it personally

[Mariner]

I'm going for Prodigy, Green Day, The Strokes.

Lets pray MCR are not headliners. I'd rather tham not even show up. Horrendous, and definately not worthy of a headlining spot. What have they done exactly? Headliners should be legendry, not shit.

Surely Prodigy would be more worth/better recieved headliners than MCR?

[Dave The Hedgehog]

You are out of your mind if you think Mumford or Primal Scream would headline.

[mooseman]

How are MCR not even subbing at T (second stage headliners?) yet they will be headlining Reading, it doesn't really make sense considering that Reading is one of the biggest english festivals? The Strokes are the only good thing to be rumoured this year. If Reading wants to keep any credability MCR need to sub.

But who would headline, the only band left is Kasabian as I can't see Reading pulling something like daft punk or Beasties out the bag.

[Joe-]

If Beastie Boys get announced I'll be so happy.

I'm not. Last year people were piling out the NME tent when Mumford and Sons were on. It was an extraordinary sight. One year on they'd be more the capable of doing the same on the main stage. I don't personally like them but their popularity is baffling - they'd be a curveball (and a controversial act) for sure but ultimately they'd be a success.

Primal Scream are capable of headling too, and they have before. I'm not saying they will because they're already doing the Eden Project and Bestival this year, but it's not a remote impossibility.
