Neil, if the source you mentioned who knows all 3 headliners said the 3rd headliner was a run of the mill band, wouldn't it be a bit of a shock if it was Flo. She isn't entirely a run of the mill act and if someone seen her on the R+L line up it would raise an eyebrow or 2. So there's a strong possibility that it isn't her.

I wouldn't say she's unexpected to be on the line-up. She's played many times before, to the outside world it'll just look like R&L had given her a push as she's played so much etc. and they're struggling like other fests this year. I'd say it's a lot less surprising to the masses that she's headlining, a lot less then it would be to us.

knowing that source I don't think he'd consider Flo any differently to other acts that Reading would normally have. It would have had to be an outstanding act (a U2 / rolling stones type of thing) or one of his personal favs to fall outside if his 'standard Reading act' view I think.

Does anyone think that Wilco have any chance whatsoever of playing? They're at Way Out West which is only a couple of weeks before R&L so they might be around at the time, but they aren't exactly a typical R&L band...

Bring Me The Horizon could support ATDI in the NME Tent one night.

Chuck in some F***** Up, Turbowolf, Gallows, Serj Tankian, The Living End, New Found Glory, letlive, A Day To Remember (preferably not), Rolo Tomassi, - or something along those lines, then it could be alternate for the lock-up (which can be the Dance Stage that day).

Really want Death From Above 1979 to play mainstage on the Foos day. Only went on the Sunday last year as I wanted to see F***** Up and the other half wanted to see Muse, but I went to see DFA1979 and was blown away.

someone has just mailed me to say they know that the headliners are Flo, Kasabian & Foos - in that order for Reading.

I can't verify anything about that person to say how likely they are to be on the level. Make up your own mind. :)

    • I got super early bird too....i was that chuffed i ticked a couple of the charity contribution boxes
    • I would be very surprised as well if they are are European Festivals and Werchter isn't one of them. They have done Roskilde before but with big gaps   They have done NOS once and they have done Mad Cool once while playing 3 times at Werchter during the period Mad Cool has ran.
    • Whole thing seems a bit sus to me.
    • wtf. Those Moroccons in Cueta can't just go into EU anyway, they would need to go through further checks before Schengen.
