Lineup 2014

[kev1664]

If two bands aren't seen as big enough for a headline slot and are given coheadline, then it's always bad.

Not if one of those acts is Qotsa.....

[justanothername]

I won't believe it.

Rage against the machine.

I believe! RATM for R&L 2014!

not from an enjoyment stand point. Arctics and Queens are the band that released the 2 best albums of the last 12 months,imo, and were the 2 main acts i wanted this year.

It's worse than we thought....

[PDAD]

The thing is, Neil said it surprised him 'didn't expect that', could always be sarcastic but yanno,

Would a band that has been discussed at length really surprise him?

Well if he took Arctics off the rumour list, you'd expect a very strong reason. So if it then turned out they were headlining, he would be surprised surely...

It could still be a big sub from no where like The Libs.

[justanothername]

Yes, I would say the picture is the bigger clue (for want of a better word). Although it should be remembered efests could be having a laugh

I'm just passing on what I've been told. In fact I haven't really said anything because I don't think I'm allowed, but it doesn't take a genius to figure it out.

At this moment in time I can't really have a lot of faith in it, so I don't expect you guys to.

Are you trolling or what?

going by what lucky said, lucky said to Neil his source and Neil flat out said that was wrong didn't he?

Say if lucky's info turned out to be right and Neil's to be wrong, he'd probably be surprised wouldn't he?

Oh yeah and I see you reading this thread Neil

[Jackson Maniac]

I was going to rant but eh, Arctic Monkeys are so boring, and they were garbage the last 2 times they played. Maybe if Blink are better live now than 3 years ago then they might not be so bad.

Turned it off after the first 'feeling this'

The Strokes & Pulp were bad?

Plus Blur co-headlined T in the Park in 2009, so it's not always an indication of the bands size... though it probably will be in this case.

The link and the picture of Blink that was next to it has now gone from the Reading 2014 page...

[Matt42]

if anyone wants to know what the photo was... it was this

think that was more down to T having four bands who could all headline so instead of booting one of them, they gave them a 'co-headliner' tag (although let's be honest, Blur were headlining and Snow Patrol were subbing)

Reckon 5co77ie will get into trouble for that?

[TenInchToenaiIs]

YES. YES. YES. YES.

Weirdly the picture changed to one I couldn't identify before the whole thing disappeared.

[Yellow_Fellow]

pretending he heard

oi

I think Blink would surprise everyone as it's so soon and weren't big enough the first time.

[the wonderwhy]

Are you trolling or what?

Nope, I'm just explaining what is going on.

What I'm saying is its difficult to trust a first-time source until they've been proven (hopefully) right. I have no idea if what I've been told is correct or complete bullshit, but I'm passing it on as at the end of the day I feel that's what we're all here for.

In fact, I'm being careful with what I say because as a silly little student I'm lucky to get anything at all

At the moment everything I'm seeing/hearing/whatever adds up, so as a journalist I'm rolling with it

Really old Hart Attack one I think.

Did it look like this?

[ArcticGorilla]

Will really laugh it isnt Blink now.

For the record I'm not too bothered either way, but would prob rather see someone else take the slot.

I feel like The Strokes should have headlined. I love both bands but it's weird that they shuffled things about for an IOW sub .

But that's irrelevant really because they both have headlined before and stuff, when we're looking at two bands that they're admitting aren't big enough to headilne both legs, then I think it's a cop out.
