I couldn't possibly say.

[eFestivals]

hehe, Yes we know you can't say but do you think it is what the majority will like?

going by the poll that's on here (last time I looked, anyway), the majority wanted Green Day.

So if Neil knows most of the line up but can't say does that mean the bands already on the rumours page are correct otherwise he would of taken them down if he knew they were wrong? Probably over thinking it.

It ended up even in the end.

[Vieuphoria]

Very much a surprise. But an incredibly welcome one.

[Danlar]

This is my whack at it.

Personally I think Flo would be better fit subbing The Cure. Not sure if Lostprophets would take a slot below Flo, so if they play they might be subbing a head or headlining NME a la 2009. Bit shaky.

Two door might not headline NME, they haven't got very much material. It would be nice to see YMA6 on the main stage again, their new album is a good one. Shikari would fill the tent and be a good contrast for The Cure. Kele is obviously back with Bloc Party this year - they did a great job subbing Radiohead in 2009, and they'd be welcomed back with pretty open arms.

Tenacious D and Pixies (and the D subbing Pixies) is a bit of a long shot - a bit of a "nice to have" end of festival Sunday.

Nice to see the 2006 font in use though, they should go back to that style on the posters, I thought it looked cool.

Lostprophets are more popular now than they were in 2010. You have this weird fascination of belittling the band but you way underestimate them.

[Vieuphoria]

I don't belittle them. I like them. But they aren't anywhere near as popular as they were, and they're just on their way down.

This generations Ash? Accept not as good as Ash.

[Yellow_Fellow]

Well they've gone from the small academies to doing Brixton again this year.

Lostprophets tickets haven't exactly been on sale very long, they will sell it out, and their album will give them more popularity.

Remember the festival is like 6 months away.

Its an intimate gig, for around 100 people. Its just a local show to release their new album..

Enter shikari played to 150 people the other night, doesn't mean they should be low nme..

Hope thats cleared it up.

Also The Specials is another one I don't see playing. They are not a big young persons band, and they are defo V over R&L. They did a UK arena tour not that long ago, I reckon they just might take festivals off or play somewhere that'll appreciate them more now.
