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.

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.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
