2012 Lineup

[mrtourette]

True, I'd have thought that they'd be more the size to play the FR rather than Brixton and I'll be surprised if they sell out.

[Hart Attack]

Anyone else think the poster looks terrible this year?

Looks like the font size changes from letter to letter, and it's too big in general; it looks very cluttered lower down. 'Foo Fighters' appears to be written in a generic font rather than a proper logo, Lanegan has an extra G in it (unless that's how it's supposed to be spelled?), several logos are poor quality/pixelated, plus issues with line width on the second stage (higher-up bands getting squashed to fit onto one line while lower bands get plenty of space on a line to themselves)...

It just looks like a fake, made by someone either without proper software or that doesn't really care/know what they're doing.

Heh I never noticed the Lanegan typo, that's terrible.

Maybe it's a fake, trolls have seized control of the Leeds website, even the BBC have fallen for it.

He did, and a sizable chunk of the internet believed it

[mrtourette]

Hart Attack do your own version of the real line-up so far.

[Vieuphoria]

That Mark Lanegan typo is appalling. How did I not notice?

[jump]

I'm waiting for the day Heart Attacks starts workign for all the fests making their posters. He should have his own wiki page considering there's a yearly fake leak due to him.

[mrtourette]

All he needs to do is stop putting bands he likes unrealistically high and he might fool one of us

[AcademicPistol]

The dance & lock up stages just look poorly done, what Hart doesn't know about poster making isn't worth knowing someone should really hire him to make a proper poster.

[OneTwo]

Maybe FR have done the poster not up to standard on purpose, so that when all the fakes circulate for 2013 we will be more inclined to believe them as we wont be able to tell the diffirence in quality (font sizes, spelling mistakes , bands to high or low etc) resulting in more rumours and more excitement haha

Or maybe i have just thought about it to much

Edit. Obviously im joking.

[Martino231]

Hart Attack you should definitely do your own version of the poster.

[Hart Attack]

Well I have just got my new computer up and running, and I want to try Photoshop out to see how much faster it runs now (it was so damn slow before), but I need to download it again first. I'll have a go at it later or tomorrow, maybe...

Azaelia banks

The singer/rapper has pulled out of all six of her UK festival appearances, including Lovebox,RockNess, Parklife Weekender, Rough Beats, Wakestock, and Bestival.

Her website still lists the performer as playing Reading and Leeds Festival from 24-26 August 2012, but there

To be fair she'd probably do well to go release an album. Seems odd her being so high with only a semi popular single to show for it.

So did I. Quite enjoyed her. Nothing special. But at Coachella she looked fantastic. I think anyway :S

[dentalplan]

I'm a bit puzzled by this, if she needed to utilise most of the summer to work on the new album, how come shes scratched off what is probably a similar sized set at Bestival, obviously after R+L, then?

I mean I could probably hazard a gue$$, but its unusual.
