2013 Lineup

[LPFC]

Do you come on here purely to bang on about your band?

[Andy0808 v3.0]

what dafuq are u on about? Im 16 from Peterborough. Theyre a group of 19/20 year olds from somewhere else. Am i not allowed to be enthusiastic and supportive of a band i think are future festival headliners? I apologize.

Tbf Filthy Boy are very very good. Their singer reminds me of Nick Cave and Jarvis.

[Muppetmark]

Want to get a "Bloc for Reading Glasto chant going"?

[Dom123]

Are the prodigy out the running to headline, because if Melvin Benn was telling the truth about there being no metal headliner I think the prodigy could be a likely contender.

It is an odd one to reconcile, 'band that encouraged SOAD to play the festival' on the one hand, 'no metal headliner (according to notorious bullshitter MB, but still)' on the other.

Do we think Rage would count as a 'metal' headliner in Melvin's head? Because they're the only band that come to mind that fit both those criteria, really.

Still want it to be Blur...

[Andy0808 v3.0]

I hope it's Travis.

[festivallad90]

Green day will be the third headliner.

Green day will be the third headliner.

[festivallad90]

I like to sound like that way, but I am pretty sure and have been a while

when is the line up released?

[kev1664]

V announcing on Monday next week 25/02/13. At least we will know who will not be playing lower down the bill at R&L by then.

End of feb 2013 is when the presale at last years prices I'd expect the R&L announcement the Monday of the following week 04/01/13. Unless the promoters try and force another announcement out before V announces.

Latitude said they're announcing 19 March and it's usually a week later, so I'd say 26 March.

[dancelittleliar]

I know I'm probably gonna get hated on for saying this, but I'd love Crystal Castles to headline NME. I haven't had a chance to properly see them yet (missed out on their tour and saw Hives instead last year - which I don't regret one bit)

A selfish wish, but one I think might happen. Aren't many dance acts of NME size

[Andy0808 v3.0]

Are people purposely lowering their expectations for NME headliners?

[Andy0808 v3.0]

I think Zane Lowe lowered them when he announced Alt-J.

[ladbrokeboy]

Haha very true. But i'd expect the other two headliners to be of decent stature compared to them.

[huntyyy]

I think tickets will go on sale and announcement on 4th March, the WEREPRESENT tickets get sent out on 1st march for sale, so i expect lineup will be that Monday.

[Andy0808 v3.0]

Actually yeah to be fair if it was Zane who announced it though the whole thing would of been hyped up to the point where people would have been even more disappointed.
