2013 Headliners

[alibear]

Got nothing against Eminem but I've not heard great things about his live shows. Would probably rather not have him.

[Diva Sam]

Guys....

Boyzone are playing shows again in 2013

[JBarbour]

Eminem are people being serious?

The ICONIC Eminem to headline Reading 2013!

The most successful rapper in history, Eminem, is the first headliner to be announced on the Main Stage at Reading Festival in 2013. 11 years after he topped the bill at the festivals, he returns for this performance, his only UK festival appearance in 2013.

I'm still putting money on gaga/Mumford for the third. If stones pull out it will be both

[Ed209]

So who watched Radiohead while sliding down a mudslide????

[sisco]

As someone pointed out to me, why would they be looking for a third headliner (and going down the list) if Mumfords were already booked?

If they were booked, but not to headline?

Yes he has been announced for Glasgow - Gig On The Green (But it even calls it self a gig in a field!). Technically FR talking out there arse again like with The Stokes a few years ago but being at glasto will be a piss take.

[Chimps in Balaclavas]

I'd love it to be Macca, not gonna happen though

[A13]

Rather Boyzone than Killers, KOL or Kasabian. And I honestly mean that.

[Role Model]

Idiot

[FloorFiller]

Not really, it's a much fresher booking and a far more risky and out there choice. I'm all for it. Might even start a campaign.

[fatyeti24]

i'll second that campaign, but only if it includes a hologram of Stephen Gately!

[sisco]

And you believe every bit of info Neil tells you and that he never holds anything back?

It's Emily Eavis who said they only have one headliner booked.

It's big industry figures who are making flippant comments about "Glastonbury hasn't booked anything".

(note: I've said it's flippant. It's not literally true).

But Mumfords are a booked headliner, I'm just keeping it quiet.

[Jackson1990]

I did!

I was in a really bad place that afternoon. Hit it way too hard the first couple of days, the rain and cold was getting me down, I couldn't get anywhere near radiohead, but that 45 minutes stood with everyone else watching people throw themselves down a mudslide was the highlight of my weekend. It restored my faith in the human spirit and was more uplifting than any band I saw that weekend.

[Jackson1990]

I like Mumford and Sons but is anyone else a bit bored of them now? I'd be so indifferent to them headlining. For me, Dry the Rivers debut was better than Babel!

[Thearg]

Mumfpphhrzzt....What a let down.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

They're shit but they are probably the biggest band in the world right now.

[Sketchead]

Let down but saw it coming. For me it means I'd go elsewhere, but my best mate (just us two going) is a big fan. I'm more into music and will drag him to watch loads of little bands he won't like, so I might have to go along with him
