2013 Lineup

[jonnomanofsteele]

I'm going under the assumption that Zane's announcing a headliner later, or this announcement buzz would be all for nothing. Nobody is going to rush for tickets on the back of that announcement alone

[Last Nights Hero]

That explains why there was no leak. There was fuck all worth leaking.

[GRichards23]

Agree with most, Deftones aside that was a poor poor announcement.

[Chrisw16]

That's a massive let down. Acts such as Wiley and Skepta spring V festival to mind...

[she bangs the drums]

What type of music are Alt-J? I've never actually heard anything from him/them?

[Luke Routledge]

On a different note anyone been onto the new website. I hate it.

[dentalplan]

Just searched for tweets about Bloc Party.

[purplehaze81]

It's hardly surprising the Deftones are playing, they've been on every other year since 2009 now.

[mblackhouse]

To think i had to sit through 15 minutes of Radio 1 for that!

[AcademicPistol]

Except for Deftones, was it worth announcing that?

I'm actually pleased that there are gonna be new stages for dance and urban music, takes it away from the stages worth going to.

[kev1664]

Was it worth announcing deftones? I've seen them twice in the last 4 year at Leeds. Would have been more worth in announcing someone who hasn't played in a while.

[DL50]

What a fucking let down if that is the only announcement!

[Hart Attack]

Deftones playing three out of five years? Typical Reading, relying on the same old boring, safe, predictable repeats.

[lharris92]

well i can safely guess from alt-J headlining the tent, an older/alternative band will be on main stage headlining i guess.

It's not that bad, Alt-J are massive with the kids (still surprised they're headlining and not subbing though), Deftones are good band to announce (popular and heavy enough to counter the rest of the stuff) and Radio One got to reveal their two new stages. I'm surprsed at the lack of headliner though. It won't sell many tickets but it's only a pre-sale, all the good stuff was always going to be saved for March (watch Zane Lowe announce all the headliners tonight and prove me wrong yet again).

[thetime]

So you all got your cards ready to purchase?

[Hart Attack]

Black Sabbath

System Of A Down

Deftones

Epic top three right there to go up against Alt-J.

On second thoughts yes, this is a good point. Also must mean Lock Up is 3 days this year
