He sold out his arena tour in the UK in like a day, and the tickets were around £50 each

I can see Noel play R&L, Beady Eye are more likely to play V next year than R&L and they may want to avoid having any potential arguements between the two over who get's the better slot, who gets paid more, what day etc and Foos have said before they were big fans of Oasis.

I'd be pretty pleased with that, but are they still touring now that Mani's left? If they are then I'd be interested to see what they do now that they've finished Screamadelica Live.

Saw them at Hogmanay and were outstanding, would definitely be a band to tempt me to go to Reading again this year

I'll go for The Courteeners ( 3rd album out this year and played V last 2 years) Chase and Status and At the Drive In.

Seen primal scream alot in last 20 years and there very hit and miss, sometimes out of this world and sometimes dire.

Would be a tad disapointed if headlined nme, could see them around 4th from top on main.

[harderfaster]

they have a new album in the pipeline. Could play R/L if Stones are heading V

[JID]

Why would the Scream be more likely to play R/L if Roses are headlining V? It's not like Mani will want to avoid them?

I never said more likely, Primal were at v last year

I never said more likely, Primal were 2nd stage headliners at v last year so wouldnt think they would play again this year

The Maccabees

TDCC

Enter Shikari

The Subways

Lostprophets

Ed Sheeran

I can see TDCC headlining it but also see The Maccabees back there and can't see a main stage place as they did it last time, but for R&L to really make it stronger, they could opt for this.

Enter Shikari, played main and nme sub before with a big crowd. Up against a fairly huge headliner, this would work, if Jay Z or The Killers would do it, but also at R&L, Bloc Party probably would.

Prophets I think this is ideal, they'll need a killer new album to move upto 3rd and I hope R&L just book someone more deserving.

[harderfaster]

Well why does the Roses headlining V have anything to do with it then?

[Vacant0]

Lostprophets

Ed Sheeran

[gazza_20]

Ye, that flows well... Why is Ed Sheeran even getting predicted? He's a pop act.

[Vacant0]

He's played recently, every reason why getting bigger would get him there again. the tent was rammed for him last time. It flows better than having him under Enter Shikari.

[gazza_20]

Or rather every reason why getting bigger would get him to play V instead.

[gazza_20]

A pretty huge pop act that would probably appeal to the school leaver-type crowd.

[thetime]

ed sheeran could easily play reading/leeds in a early evening slot on nme, but think hes going to play in a pretty high plce at v.

lets be honest r&l is turning into v was 10 years ago anyway and v is turning into t4 on the beach.
