2013 Lineup

[Justiceforcedave]

There is no Metallica pattern.

[AcademicPistol]

The gaps between each Metallica appearance at R&L actually follows the fibonacci sequence.

I really don't know why people think Biffy are headliners yet since they played second at IOW and Download I think would have to be a support band.

Id rather have Biffy Clyro Headline than somebody who has headlined recently or someone like Bloc Party!

I change my guess to Peral Jame, Biffy Clyro and The Killers would be a very good set of headliners!

DJ Fresh

Sub Focus

Rudimental

Netsky

[mrtourette]

Can't see The Hives jumping from 7th down in the R1/NME to fourth from top on the main.

Do 2 numbers really count as a sequence? And the Fibonacci sequence always starts at 0.

[jump]

Yeah and they started with 0 performances at R&L as well

[dip]

I'll put in an early shout for Frank Turner headlining the NME

[Siamesedream22]

Rancid need to return it's been way too long! was really hoping it would be this year! seeing them in december but would love to see them at reading

[Lewis Cato]

Had a fiddle about with my line-up:

I'm not sure if this would happen but if it did not only would I be chuffed but I reckon it'd shift a fair few more tickets than the previous couple of years; a lot of acts that appeal to older audiences who are the only people who can afford tickets nowadays, a lot of big electronic names to shift tickets to the younger audiences who can afford tickets and most importantly a lot of cheap yet popular bands filling up slots.

[Vieuphoria]

After last night I am 100% that Blur should headline. What a gig.

Hit after hit after hit. Such passion. Brilliant gig.

also... The Bots should play. Fantastic band. 2 kids. Really talented.

[jonodillieono]

I seen Blur with The Bots in Wolverhampton. Fantastic gig I hope I get a chance to see both again.

Crystal Castles headlining the NME stage next year as the dance headliner? They've got a new album out soon so if it does well they could headline however they play every year nearly so maybe not.

[Vieuphoria]

I think next year will be a year off for them. They've played every stage they feasibly can can play.

I do think they're a more forgivable repeat booking though.

[Lewis Cato]

As great as they are live I think it'd be better to give someone else a go at that slot; it'd be too similar to last year's slot to warrant it I think.

[sjseabass]

Frank Turner should reform Million Dead, then play every year - solo one year, Mongol Horde the next, Million Dead the next, then loop back round to solo again. Everybody wins .
