2013 Lineup

[Fest]

It's incredible how bad this festival has become. Have barely heard of anyone playing the NME. Azealia Banks sub-headlining? Crazy. Among others, of course. Oh well, not the end of the world.

[Chinaski_]

Didn't they pull out?

[Seanoooo]

I think it just needs two or three more strong acts and its great.

[Andy0808 v3.0]

I still find it funny that after Green Day being rumored every year for however long.. the one year they aren't in contention until literally a couple of weeks ago they end up headlining.

[dancelittleliar]

Not trying to sound like a facebook dickhead, but that really is a crappy line up and I'm kind of regretting buying a ticket in presale

[dentalplan]

Yep..the crowd wasn't big, then Dave Navarro came out and said they're not playing as Perry was ill.

[lharris92]

After seeing NIN in 2007, i feel sorry for Biffy!!!!

[LondonTom]

I'd be interested in Green Day again but nothing really screams that I have to by a ticket, and choosing between Eminem and Alt-J or Biffy and Phoenix at this point are terrible situations to be in.

[Millar95]

Quite surprised to see Chase and Status subbing, if of course, this is where they are playing!

[Chinaski_]

I always thought that year was a bit weird, 2002; Strokes and Pulp co-headlined with Jane's Addiction third and then a similar setup in 2011. And The Strokes are massive Jane's Addiction fans too (there's a video of them spotted a JA gig on Youtube).

[The Placid Casual]

Strongest subs ever

Weakest nme headliners

[Fest]

You have info to suggest she's subbing? The press release merely says she's playing on that stage...

[jump]

I've just told my girlfriend the line up and she very happy with Phoenix & Skrillex and wants to go now after I've spent the last week trying to get her into NIN and tempting her to go only for me to not be impressed with the line up.

[Andy0808 v3.0]

I was looking forward to Eminem until i saw C&S sub.. the characters that will be walking around on that day. They'll be wood chippings all over the place by the end of the day

[Matt42]

I thought I was genially going to be bummed about not going this year.

But honestly, this isn't anything that makes me want to go.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

It probably is in terms of tickets.

In terms of tastes on here I think it will go down like a lead ballon (although ultimately that doesn't matter)

[Chinaski_]

Well I hope there's interesting Lock Up headliners this year, not Reel Big Fish or the Murphys

[dentalplan]

Strongest subs ever

Weakest nme headliners

[Yellow_Fellow]

Chase And Status under Eminem?

B-but... that's two marginalised genres at the top...

[eFestivals]

Ah no, I just looked at the efests rumours page and she was placed second from top so I just assumed that was her position. But yeah, I guess she probably isn't playing that high.

I'd say it's likely that the press release order (which is what efests has used too) is the reunning order.

Possibly the only option here is that another act might slot between her and the headliner.

[thetime]

Well thats an interesting lineup.

[kaosmark2]
