[Com Truise]

Frank Ocean against SOAD, please no, put him against ANYONE on the Saturday main though and I'll be happy

[the wonderwhy]

Tickets have gone up a fiver (I think)

Weekend: £202.50 face value + max £8 booking fee

Early Entry: £15.00 face value – no booking fee

Day Tickets: £90.00 face value + max £7 booking fee

Campervan: £60.00 face value - no booking fee

Locker: £16 face value – no booking fee

Car parks: £5 each face value – no booking fee (same price for Weekend or Day)

(If we'd been clever, or bored enough, we probably could've worked this out; volunteer deposit has been £225 for a week or so now, which is obviously the cost of ticket + booking fee + early entry. Just so we know when we come to next year )

It's going to be so touch and go for me this year, even the predictions this year are upsetting me.

[thewayiam]

Billy talent have released an album since they played last year. In 2010 they played 7th top(or 3rd on if you like). They will for sure move up the bill. I dunno if that's just one spot or two though.

[SOAD]

does this tempt anyone?

Green Day - of course the right slot but still don't see it happening. Don't really have any proper relation to SOAD

SOAD - of course

Enter Shikari - don't see it... done main three times in the past four years and twice in the past two... would be overkill. Plus don't see why they would play higher at Reading than Download (were going to play fourth on main + they are playing the same slot as You Me At Six who did fourth down).

Deftones - yes

JEW - maybe. Seem to be doing loads of touring earlier in the summer including fests in Germany, and Netherlands which would probably stop them from doing Highfield and Lowlands giving them less reason to come to Europe later in the summer.

Alt-J - yes

Suede - think they would headline the stage. Headlined Latitude after all.

Django Django - reckon one higher. Headlined the NME Tour.

Sub Focus - yeah

Eminem - yeah

Paramore - maybe... doing loads of European dates in early summer... granted no UK dates so far which should happen with a new album but LP haven't come here yet either so maybe Paramore will do the same/wait for a winter tour. Could always do Glasto as well although unlikely

Bloc Party - yes although still think could sub... subbing IOW after all and Reading has sort of always been their fest.

Foals - yes or one higher

BMTH - I would guess they would be on the heaviest day. I get heavier bands mixing up the other days but not really a band this heavy.

Dropkick Murphey's - yeah but one higher I would guess. No reason to move down.

Billy Talent - Definately one higher if not higher than that but seem nailed on to play and could def see them playing the mixed day.

Bullet For My Valentine - don't see it. Huge slot at Download and don't really have that many fest options so may want to leave Reading to a later date.

Jake Bugg - yes

Magnetic Man/Modestep - either seems good

Biffy Clyro - yes

Dizzee Rascal - yes

Fall Out Boy - yes

Vampire Weekend - at least one higher

Frank Turner - yes

NIN - yes

Yeah Yeah Yeah's - think could headline this stage easily

Modest Mouse - maybe although again don't see them staying in Europe that long. Would put them on main again though as we always seem to get at least one band in their sort of style on main.

Nero - yes

What's people's thoughts? Not done one for a while and it's a different idea. I've included ES as they are playing the same do as SOAD, Biffy and others, and I think they'd move upto 3rd. Could at a stretch, Bullet sub ES in the NME tent?

[luckysalt]

Right, with it now being past 5pm on Friday, I don't expect to hear anything from efests until Monday now regarding leaks, its going down to the wire guys!

[Com Truise]

If this was the case who would you choose, I'd definitely go frank, i like soad but channel orange is one of my favourite albums in ages...

[PriiivateDonut]

Any rumors on who the final headliner could be? Not been on in a few days and can't be bothered back tracking if there is nothing decent to read!

I personally hope its Metallica or Green Day!

Also as a side note apparently Leeds fest are having a bonus this year due to the fact Reading got Green Day last year, any thoughts on what or who it might be?!

How would anyone possibly know at this point if they were planning on organising a surprise for Leeds when we don't even know half the lineup.

[Chrisl2510]

Also did anyone get tickets for Atoms for Peace this morning? I thought about it but £55 a ticket (about £62 after booking fee's etc) seemed a bit steep!

[mrtourette]

My ticket for Lad Rock Calling was cheaper than that.
