[Mouseboy11]

Ben Howard's set is looking good, love this guys music.

The bassist for Deftones died, do people reckon they'll pull out this year or?

Public Enemy, Billy Talent, Tribes, Dog is Dead, The Horrors and Pure Love have been added to the main stage lineup on wikipedia, but not on any of the official sites. Seems a bit of an odd mix of acts to be a prank?

Doubt it. Couldn't see Editors moving down, and I'd probably expect The Horrors to be higher. I don't think the mix of acts makes it unlikely to be a prank, it's literally just 6 of the most likely acts.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Gutted Bat for Lashes can't be added, I was relying on her being the FR headliner against Skrillex & Green Day.

[Charlie13]

Hmm, they only played 3rd down on NME last year though, at a similar level to Billy Talent. And as much as it depresses me, if Editors are moved down to fifth for Lumineers, surely moving them down to sixth doesn't make that much of a difference?

Add that's what I mean by odd, why someone would add six acts to the wikipedia lineup if it isn't a) ridiculously optimistic or b ) legitimate

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Why can't she?

[Gucci Piggy]

Dates in the US on the 22nd & 24th.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Balls. I was hoping for her opposite Eminem. Wouldn't be surprised to see us end up with 3 of The Pigeon Detectives/Django Django/Miles Kane/Klaxons/We Are Scientists headline the FR looking at the lineup so far. At least Dinosaur Jr.'s exclusive turned out to be bullshit so I can hope for them.

[Gucci Piggy]

Klaxons, Django Django & Dinosaur Jr. would be a decent enough set of FR headliners.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

A strong FR headliner to clash with Green Day, Skrillex, Wiley & Sub Focus is what I'm holding out for as none of them really appeal to me. Bat For Lashes or Frank Ocean would be my first choices but she's ruled out & he's probably too big for that slot now.

Im counting on the fr/lock up acts filling some big gaps in the line up for me. So many bands i would love to be there but are playing elsewhere, dino jr, primal scream, my bloody valentine etc.

[dentalplan]

Does Dinosaur Jr playing in Reading in June affect chances of being at R+L?

[Chinaski_]

I don't think so, but I'd very surprised (and pleased) if they were booked.

Yeah I'd actually be fine with We Are Scientists.

Wish Phoenix were on a different day. Last year I had 8 headliners across all the stages I wanted to see, plus a couple more I wouldn't have minded seeing. This year I have two I want to see and they both clash, plus Green Day who I'll see if there's nothing else on.

If Biffy are getting a 2h+ set it'll be pretty easy to watch 45 minutes and decide if you want to bugger off to see someone else.

[Com Truise]

Not sure if this is a reply to my post, but anyway, I'll definitely be watching Biffy's full set, one of my favourite bands and always been brilliant when I've seen them. It's just the other days I'm stuck with no one to see.

[Gucci Piggy]

If there's genuinely no one you want to see, just go to the dance tent, it's easy to have a good time with dance music and a couple of mates, what I'll probably do on the Green Day day

[thetime]

At the moment it's probably what I'll do on the Eminem day. But after paying £200 for a festival I'd like to have a headliner I want to see on more than one day. I'm sure there'll be someone I want to see on all three days when the full lineup's out, so I should stop complaining.
