2013 Lineup

[Com Truise]

I think just because the majority of the people on here dislike them, they do not realise that for the punk/emo fans. Fall out boy were their beatles.

You will be surprised how many people I know nearly fainted when they found out fall out boy were in the UK playing reading. For many people, fall out boy will be their must see band of the whole weekend. They are massive and I think alot of people here try to not believe it.

[dentalplan]

Horrors apparently playing main. That's all

[music-fan4]

I don't think Bastille will play, they would only fit on nme stage, and nme really doesn't like them...

[music-fan4]

Being like by NME isn't imperative. Mastodon and Billy Talent were on that stage last year, they are scarcely mentioned in the NME mag and the website

[music-fan4]

And it is NME/RADIO 1

[Lewis10030]

Staind too play! haha

[DL50]

[Com Truise]

I don't like Bastille, Haim, Palma Violets, Peace, Django Django, etc or any of the other indie lot that have come out of NME or Radio 1 recently, so hopefully they stick them all low down, or against people I genuinely want to see. Reckon they're all a load of the same shite

[dancelittleliar]

Christ knows why, they're better than a lot of the shite nme pedals at the moment. Palma Violets spring to mind.

[rawaudioinput]

Kraftwerk was more just to keep with the trend of dance headliners on the Sunday, obviously that may change this year! But yeah wasn't really a concrete prediciton

I can see where you're coming from with Billy Talent but i think they are an unappreciated band at Reading. Their slots are usually low but they always go down so well and manage to get decent crowds.

As for Frank Turner, i could see him playing 4th on the main stage tbh, i do think he will be there but i really don't like him so its more personal bias that i put him there

[Dead throne]

Will we reach 1,000 before monday?

Hmmmm

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Disagree, Bastille are on another level of shit to Palma Violets. At least they're doing something ok with no originality, instead of something shite with no originality.

I know that Palma Violets' album debuted at no. 11 last week but I'm interested to see how far it drops; I reckon out of the top 20.

[Gravyshambles]

Palma violets album is so so so shit. Bastille's is so so so so so so shit.

[GRichards23]

Just on MCR - I am a huge fan of them, from their first album to the most recent, their set in 2011 was brilliant, the only other song I wanted to hear was 'I Don't Love You', they were my band of the weekend. Think they surprised a heck of a lot of people.

On A7X - they are bigger than Deftones and are the next band that will make the step up to Headline Download next year I think with the potential to sub R&L the year later. Very much looking forward to the new album, huge fan of them.

As for this years line up - I'm shocked at the lack of leaks and rumours, would think they are some big surprises in there and the bookers will have want to kept this watertight.

Black Sabbath/Green Day

SOAD

Avenged Sevenfold

Deftones

BMTH

Killswitch Engage

That would be a quality day in my eyes.

Every time somebody suggests Black Veil Brides I die a little inside.

Still holding out hope for Bloc Party.

I think if all those artists play they would be spread across the weekend dude. But it would be a great day if they decide to bring back the heavy day, who knows what the new booker is doing? He may book Pixies and Weezer under Biffy, that would be awesome!

[Gucci Piggy]

Is that a new leak? Didn't someone find that out through their brother or something on this thread? Sure that happened. Like a month or two back.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

If he books the Pixies the naked macarena will be performed, again.
