2013 Lineup

[thewayiam]

The ones in April are yes, but Trent said NIN will be touring in the summer and then back to the US in the Autumn. I was just guessing summer festivals that they could play.

Ah didn't know the last bit man. I'd say Coachella will snap them up as well in April surely? Chances are they'll snap Mumford up as well, there will have been a 3 year gap there so.

[Yellow_Fellow]

That's HTDA, thetime.

[thewayiam]

No they're not at Coachella, if HTDA are playing and the line ups been announced. I'd say they're more likely for Lollapalooza, as that's in August.

Good. Rock stars know how to make a show.

NIN cater very much for your Download crowd as far as I know, putting them as a sub on a very R&L day but below a slightly heavier headliner is a great move. That's not me saying it's a done deal or that the guy is right but there is tour news to question is at least and he's specific about the day, could have said Eminem

[thewayiam]

Just because someone states a day to a rumour it doesn't make it any more true.

[jump]

jump, know one is saying it is. it's just a convo

[Duw13]

Must say I would not be too happy with that top six- Black Sabbath don't suit my tastes anywhere near as much as Blur or Green Day do, and the only sub I'd be interested in seeing at all would be The Prodigy. Though I suppose I'm a bit less hard/heavy rock oriented than most on here.

[jump]

that's not proof at all. you're just making something what it's not and the only one to question is.

it merely says, doesn't rule in or out, nothing more, nothing less

[kev1664]

Although I like NIN I can't see how the festival would seek out if this many alternative acts are being booked. All the Facebook comments on the R&L wall have been asking for your indie and pop type bands.

If they seem to be going too far away from the mainstream I could see a struggle...

[thewayiam]

I've not got a clue what you're trying to say here. What I posted was a quote from you getting excited as someone (after the NIN announcement) said NIN are playing a specific day at R&L to which I pointed out it makes it no more or less true if a day is stated.

[thewayiam]

The acts announced + a possible NIN would only take up a small portion of the lineup, if anything I can see it being better for the festival.

[Gucci Piggy]

Tool above SOAD and NIN below Biffy.

In all seriousness though, this would be perfect for me (minus Eminem and FOB)...

Black Sabbath

System of a Down

Deftones

Eminem

Bloc Party

Editors

Biffy Clyro

Nine Inch Nails

Fall Out Boy

If NIN were to sub, the Biffy day would make most sense, as they're the 2nd heaviest sub, and Biffy are likely the 2nd heaviest headliner.

[Com Truise]

A small proportion of the top of the line up. That's the biggest seller amongst casual fans. Bands like SOAD, NIN, deftones seem to have a large following on these forums but are not massively popular with the mainstream, he'll they failed to sell out with the foos and kasabian last year, I think this route is going to be worse.

Much better for my musical tastes but as a whole I can see it being a huge struggle.

[kev1664]

But there's still the places for acts such as Prodigy, Bloc Party, XX, Vampire Weekend, and likes of Miles Kane, Palma Violets on NME, plus if they manage some decent stuff on 1xtra like Macklemore and Frank Ocean, then there's no room for anyone to complain surely?

Have I missed something? How come NIN have appeared in predictions and stuff now?

[dentalplan]

Because they've announced they'll tour again through '13 and '14 and people are allowing themselves to hope.
