Because they are impossibly shit live and they charge a huge fee. Reading has more integrity than to book an act that would be popular but they know would be terrible.

Also:

Biffy

Green Day (if i say it enough times maybe it will come true?)

Bloc Party

Bloc Party would count? If it's a first festival set in the UK. Unless they're at Bestival, which I'm not sure about (it certainly won't have both them and Florence), there's no big festivals left to announce a headliner?

Sex Pistols did their reunion, and I'm sure they were fucking awful. They shouldn't be anywhere near a headline slot.

I can't believe Daft Punk would end up at R+L when they finally do shows again. Of course, if they do, I'll be there, but I just can't see it...

And I can't see Reading treating Biffy as a headliner only a year after they sub Download. I expect them to take a year out from festivals next year.

Why do people keep predicting co-headliners when it won't happen?

Normally when a band gets bumped up they aren't around the on the fest circuit the year before and didn't Neil say the other day he heard Mumford & Sons won't be playing any English fests this year...

    • Feel Stevie Wonder should be in the conversation as a random Michael Eavis headliner ala Neil Young last year.... If we did get a M.E pick for one of the headliner slots, who else would be in the mix do we think? Cher? Rolling Stones? Nicks/Fleetwood?
    • That interview was long enough ago for Madonna to have been offered a 3rd BST to say no to Glastonbury and Olivia Dean to have been asked.

    • Funny if after this they've managed to get Oasis and nobody has a clue.   Also, dunno if it's just me but I can't see any betting odds anymore, William Hill or otherwise. Doesn't take much for that market to change, or come down, as the little Fontaines flurry showed 😅
