2013 Lineup

[thetime]

how about this as a best possible option?!

Mumford & Sons

The XX

Eminem

Biffy Clyro

Black Sabbath

SOAD

[thewayiam]

Best wouldn't include Mumford and Eminem.

[eFestivals]

Did Neil ever say any more on Mumfords removal from V rumours and addition to R+L?

I can't remember if I said, but I know they're not doing V.

[zahidf]

I can't remember if I said, but I know they're not doing V.

[jump]

Interesting. Do you reckon they'll headline Reading then, or be second from top under Eminem?

( On the assumption that they wouldn't accept a sub to Biffy and obviously wouldn't fit under B.Sabbath if they are doing it)

[thewayiam]

yeah it's interesting that Mumford aren't doing V. Can't see a Reading set without it being a headliner.

would bestival should they get elton have the money and pulling power to get Mumford too?

[mrtourette]

I'd be quite taken aback if they subbed R&L after headlining T.

[mrtourette]

Stop that.

[dentalplan]

Ok

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

Wish people would stop asking for Prodigy. Watched them in 09, and at Download twice, and I really don't get what the fuss is about. Just a couple of twats shouting "My *insert festival name* warriors" over pre-recorded music... How does that get such a following?! It beggars belief!

[gittinsell]

Bowie....? ;D

[mrtourette]

Get out.

[thetime]

Bowie....? ;D

[gittinsell]

I know its impossible, but it is IMPOSSIBLE?! Even with the new song and album?

[kev1664]

Yup if R&L got Mumford to sub and T couldn't that'd be pretty huge to be fair. It's nearly always the other way around if anything. It's hard to see V not getting them as a header but Reading do as a sub, barring on mind they might not want to play V.

[Paul ™]

What's to say that they haven't agreed a sub headline this year with an agreement to definitely headline in 2015 on the back of the new album package and allowing them to headline / play other festivals this year, making them more money this year.

[Mouseboy11]

Cause gazza really has no idea how festivals approach and secure acts, and how contracts and agents work.
