2012 Lineup

[jump]

Be that as it may, they're two massive dates. Coachella & Beni are pretty much their respective countries biggest festivals, much like Glasto is in this country. I can't see them going from playing high up there, to subbing the NME tent as some people originally thought. I guess we'll find out in March.

[jump]

Where does it say that they're headlining? In all of the articles I can find it just says they'll be making an appearance, they don't detail where on the line-up they're playing... Hoping for a high slot though!

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

While Beni is Spain's biggest festival it's headliners aren't as strong as say Glasto or even R&L as I've pointed out already past headliners include Devo, Vampire Weekend, Streets & Iggy Pop.

Not sure why people were predicting them to sub NME tho, headlining seems the most obvious.

[jump]

Whilst I agree with you, you have to take into account that Beni has 4 headliners & the Thurs is never as big as the other 3 days... That being said, I'd say headlining NME or 3rd on the main stage for ATDI is about right at R/L.

Foo Fighters

Soundgarden

At The Drive-In

I wouldn't mind that, I think The Black Keys fit better under Kasabian.

Not sure why ATDi would warrant such a high slot. I saw them in Leeds when they played the Carling tent and love Relationship of Command, so do have an appreciation of them, but is the reunion factor such a big push?

Would be better suited to a tent - think they could be a bit lost on the main stage.

[GRichards23]

The Enemy?

Twitter apparently.

[jump]

Where's he said that?

[Role Model]

He's hardly going to say "YES WE'RE PLAYING IT!" but the fact he picked it out to mention when he must get so many things directed at him probably speaks volumes.

[zahidf]

Bloc Party are playing Melt Festival. Though i can see this making them more likely for Latitude

[TYLER_4]

Kaiser Cheifs now TBC, Tenacious D SR

[FortMorris]

Tenacious D - Strong Rumour!

[dirtymookie]

Updates added. Kaiser Chiefs TBC and Tenacious D added as SR!

[dirtymookie]

Always been a slow typer

[TYLER_4]

SO who reckons Foo Fighters/ QOTSA/ Tenacious D then Dave Grohl and friends

[MelRollins]

One of the days is looking like it's gonna be a Dave Grohl and friends day, with the 20th anniversary of Nevermind being recent

[mb23]

We know you think Kaisers will play third top on Main Neil, but do you have any idea where Tenacious D would be put, assuming they play? I'd say either sub or play third top.

[Vieuphoria]

if BP headline Latitude, i'd say they're subbing Reading.

Also.... Tenacious D. I'm not sure them coming back is the best idea. As fantastic as they are. Very logical booking though.

[groovygilb]

just been sent this. debatable, of course:

[FortMorris]

Would love to see The D. 3rd top I reckon... maybe 4th if its really strong above?

I think they're 3rd below Biffy and Metallica at DL.
