Prodigy were a rumour to headline this year; I don't think its unrealistic to think they could be in contention... not sure if they have a new tour/album on the way but still, they're the sort of band that could make the step up.

Or put them under Rammstein or AC/DC, both are one of the few live bands that can't be upstaged.

*No I not saying either of those will headline*

Neil heard from a music journo that the guy said Prodigy would be brought in to replace MCR as headliners. Neil also said he's probably talking shit. Prodigy have already headline Reading twice as well as IOW & Glasto but as you say they play too many festivals as subs/2nd outdoor stage so often it's diminished their worth as headliners despite being just as big and just as good live as any other that gets mentioned. I can see them headlining Soni soon though.

Haven't done an all round guess for a while so here goes.

Reading and Leeds 2012 - Bloc Party, Kasabian, Foo Fighters

V Festival 2012 - Lady GaGa, Coldplay

TITP 2012 - Biffy Clyro (RHCP could do this), Lady GaGa, Radiohead

Download festival 2012 - Nickelback, Rammstein, Van Halen

Sonisphere Festival 2012 - Soundgarden, Tool, RHCP

IOW Festival 2012 - Biffy Clyro (Kaybe West if not), RHCP, The Killers

Glastonbury Festival 2013 - Radiohead, Arcade Fire (if not The Rolling Stones), Lady GaGa

And a Rockness early guess as not too sure with this fest. - Primal Scream, Daft Punk, they can play TITP too surely can't they? Different weekends

IMO

R&L, Safe guesses but with Kasabain I think are 50/50, if they are going to headline it'll be next year but FR may be wary of them as they have never played Main or since their 1st album and there is talk of stadium shows next summer.

Vfest, safe guess but most likely.

Download, Soundgarden were lined up last year I can see them play this year instead, otherwise it's the safest guesses atm.

TITP, I know people are touting Biffy but I can see them subbing due to all the fests they have done recently, if Soni have RHCP then can't seen them playing another UK fest.

Soni, RHCP are certs but they said they were talking to Green Day & Blink as well and I can see Blink playing due to the re-arranged tour dates and the last slot would be a token metal band

IOW can't see RHCP playing both Soni & IOW due to their exclusive contract bullshit and IOW is impossible to predict as they can pull off booking the like of Rolling Stones and then book Kaiser Chiefs. I can see Radiohead playing their next year.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
