2012 Lineup

[Hawky]

Tell us how you know then

[Diva Sam]

I can confirm that Kasabian and Blur are co-headlining and the Cure are subbing to Green Day. Foo fighters will headline the other day.

I don't know who's playing which day yet... the line-up will be out soon though.

Florence & the Machine and the maccabees are also booked, don't know what positions

[Hawky]

you're a bright one aren't you???

i'm sure eavis goes clubbing regularly...

[MUFCBoothy]

Could you imagine if that was the case though? blur, Kasabian, Foo's AND Green Day... Fucking hell it'd be immense.

Been reading this thread for days and was about to sign up for an account, before realising I already had an account - silly me.

Just seemed a bit odd dude, the way the lineups have been over the past 2 years it seems unlikely they would be able to book Foos, Green Day, Kasabian and Blur co headlining and the Cure

Despite that, i would be very happy if that is in fact the line up and will thank you by the end of the week if that's the case

[MUFCBoothy]

Never really listened to them enough to get excited about them.

A few people have been posting videos of Blur at Glasto the other year. Well I was there and I can safely say it was the best performance I've seen by any band ever. The Universal was a proper hairs-on-the-back-of-the-neck moment. It's a performance that has gone down in history and the people who'll be at Reading and Leeds this year are in for a real treat!

Saw Kasabian at that same Glasto and whilst it was a good fun set which provided a singalong, it was in broad daylight which was nothing compared to just how brilliant they look brilliant in the dark. They always seem to work the crowd as well and (assuming they're closing Leeds) it will be a great way to end the weekend, shouting along to some anthems.

I've seen the Foos about six times and each time they've been nothing less than absolutely brilliant. There's no mindblowing stage setups like with, say, Radiohead or Muse, but just a solid set of tunes that get the crowd pumped, fronted by one of the most charismatic people in music.

Every year there's one, sometimes two headliners that leave the general consensus feeling a bit underwhelmed (The Strokes, Guns N' Roses, Blink 182, Arctic Monkeys, Kings Of Leon, The Killers, Razorlight, Red Hot Chili Peppers) but I can guarantee that all three headliners will absolutely blow the roof off at Reading and Leeds 2012. And I will give a tenner to anyone feeling anything less than quite satisfied by those three!

V and it's TOWIE wannabe clientele can stick their Tinie Tempah and Dappy up their collective arse, as this year's Reading and Leeds looks set to shit on that joke of a fest. Today, my friends, is a victory for our festival!

(* - we'll still have the Roses and Mondays though )

But they'll never take, OUR FREEDOM!!!

[lharris92]

Just wondering, why has there not been much talk about Bullet For My Valentine?

Subheadlined the NME stage in 2008, since then they've released Fever and played arenas

New Album this year, haven't been announced for Download or Soni, so possible NME headliner? Would be a much better choice than Enter Shikari playing for the fourth year in a row

[DL50]

bullet are taking a year out by the looks of it - they are in Thailand brewing up a new album.
