The Prodigy were an easy go-to headliner throughout the 90's and early 00's. But then they released AONNOG which received average reviews and the band were starting to fray. Members left, and they didn't do much. It looked like they were breaking up when they released their best of. That was the lowest they've ever been really. But then Invaders Must Die happened, incredible album with rave reviews getting to Number One in the chart. They're once again big, but then they play festivals, and prove they still have it live. They still have to prove themselves though, as their still sub headliners in most people eyes. They then sell out Milton Keynes. and Download took the risk. and frankly they don't look out of place as headliners. They could, at this point, headline Reading and Leeds, easily. Especially with a new album.

What are the chances of like an ultimate legendary band playing? Ie. The Who, Led Zep, Rolling Stones, even Paul McCartney!?

I understand it's slim as the price would be ridiculous, they would probably go straight to Glastonbury and then there's the issue with getting them all back together... But would it be impossible or is there a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel?

Reading tries hard to appeal to younger fans, because that's the target audience. I can't imagine them ever putting a "Nostalgia" band as a headliner. Rolling Stones are likely for Glasto next year though, I reckon.

My prediction for the IOW Festival is Pendulum, Arcade Fire and The Killers to headline. That would be excellent. Or for an outside bet Lostprophets, Radiohead, The Killers with Arcade Fire headlining Glastonbury.

If A7X and Slipknot headlined Download next year I would explode into extreme happiness.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.
