2013 Lineup

[gazza_20]

Was there any mention of Eminem being an exclusive?

I find it hard to believe Arctics wont play a UK fest this year. Bestival would be brilliant, they need to start pulling in slightly bigger headliners (Stevie Wonder & The Cure a bloody good start at that)

[the wonderwhy]

This year's 3rds were The Vaccines, Bombay Bicycle Club and The Kaiser Cheifs, they ever let bloody Paramore sub, New Order and Primal Scream are subs.

[the wonderwhy]

Yes, it's on the main website. he's on a UK festival Exclusive.

[Dead throne]

I can't quote cause i'm on my ipad, but qotsa are VERY unlikely to sub the sat at reading, as they are already subbing download.

End of.

[Gravyshambles]

Are someone like Slayer too big to headline NME opposite eminem? To appease the metallers?

[Yellow_Fellow]

They've never made much effort to please them before so why start now?

'One Headliner has headlined before, One has never headlined Leeds Festival but has headlined other festivals worldwide and the other has never headlined any Major festivals before'

The headline who's played before - Eminem

But not sure for the other two headlines.

Stone Roses are always an open idea? Thoughts?

Who do you think will be the other two headliners on this basis?

[rug568]

Biffy Clyro

Bloc Party

Deftones

Alt-J

Arctic Monkeys

Mumford and Sons

Vampire Weekend

Lostprophets

Eminem

Prodigy

Dizzie Rascal

Foals

Looking at that quote again, there's people who have headlined reading and Leeds beforehand there's certainly people who haven't headlined reading a Leeds before should get the sabbath/blur or sabbath/arctics or any other combination where both have headlined.

Unless he was specifically talking about reading and Leeds as a pair and not prior to the duel site, when readin was stand alone.

[pompeybrum44]

Biffy Clyro

Bloc Party

Vampire Weekend

Alt J

System of a down

Nine Inch Nails

Deftones

You me at Six

Eminem

The Prodigy

Placebo

Soundgarden

[kev1664]

Looking at potential headline acts that could possibly play, who haven't headlined before we have:

System of a down

Biffy Clyro

Mumford and sons

Elbow (maybe)

AC/DC

Jack white

Bloc Party(not really big enough)

Jay Z(not likely with eminem)

Kiss (are they big enough)

Acts that are ruled out

The stone roses

QOTSA (download sub)

I'd say the top four are most likely. Ca anyone think of any others?

Other ideas for subs: Dizzee Rascal, Stereophonics, Example, Paul Weller, Jimmy Page, Noel Gallagher, Skrillex, New Order, Primal Scream, Deadmau5, PJ Harvey, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Pixies, the Darkness and Iggy and the Stooges.

Some of them are ridiculously unlikely.

[kev1664]

Maybe soundgarden could be added but I don't think their album will have boosted them up from last year. Not big enough.

Can't see it but a pendulum reform. Maybe not big enough also.
