Lineup 2014

[jump]

Well I don't know if they tour much so they could just make a whole summer out of it. I dunno, I just saw them on the front page and suggested it to escape the monotony of discussing how bad theories and patterns are.

Well their UK tour consisted of the 1 London date a few weeks ago so I don't think they are the touring type but who knows.

*edit* my bad, they did 3 shows on their uk tour after checking.

Placebo, Bring me the Horizon, Cage the elephant, Gaslight anthem and band of skulls. Anyone got anything that would either point towards or against these bands playing?

Bring Me The Horizon have mainland European fests booked during one day of Download and Soni so that may free them up for R&L.

Yeah I imagine they'd just do one London date or something in July if they were touring but hey ho.

• Placebo - maybe, they used to be a R+L staple but have slipped down and wouldn't have played in *sigh* five years. Possibility though!
• BMTH - probably, someone said they heard they have been asked to come back and play the main stage again. Not sure about the reliability of that but it'd be a strange rumour to try and spread.
• Cage the Elephant - yes. They often play R+L when promoting a new album and seem like they'll be doing the second half of summer. Would be surprised if they didn't play.
• The Gaslight Anthem - yes. They play R+L as much as possible and, with a new album out next year, you can count on it.
• Band of Skulls - very likely. Play the festivals a fair bit and, again, new album. Providing Sonisphere don't snap them up you can pencil them in.

Gaslight 4th Main Stage? Or high in the NME tent?

[Andre91]

4th down main seems about right.

Gaslight 4th Main Stage? Or high in the NME tent?

They were 6th down on main last time so 5th seems more likely imo.

[2rare2die]

Hmm then they can come back next year

The Black Keys subbing AM would be amazing

Arctic Monkeys were pretty dull last time they played R/L, and The Black Keys were bordering on very dull the last time they were there. So unless both have improved dramatically, I doubt very much that I'd be amazed, or even that interested, at the prospect of watching them back to back.

I'm more of a morrisons man myself. Although Waitrose is by far the nicest food. When I'm rich I'll shop there

I hate Morrisons. Their fruit is just utterly tasteless. Own-brand bread is poor as well. Asda's definitely the best quality of the cheap lot, and outdoes Sainsburys on a few things. My main problem with them is they rarely have interesting things on offer, so it's harder to vary meals.

Oh my!!!!

Oh my!!!!

I know!

I'd like to say I'm surprised that the only comment made in the last 16 hours that I feel worth responding to is about supermarket preference, but that just wouldn't be true.

WHAT HAVE WE COME TO?

[jump]

I thought time was shocked that you don't like Morrisons.

[devilman]

I'm LOLing at the poor souls that were trapped in for Eminem and how dangerous the C&S crowd was. Is everybody on this forum still crossing the road holding their mum's hand? The most dangerous thing was the puddles.

I don't like Nandos.

I'm not a huge fan but the macho peas & spicy rice are fucking lovely.

They are delicate little souls devilman.

Oh no.

[dentalplan]

I can see why the crowd would be dangerous for some, of course. But to be 'trapped' so you can't get out of a crowd for thirty minutes, then the whole Eminem set? Come on, son.

Very true it must be said, now I'm not going I will be back on my r&l forum hiatus shortly..

I'm sure you'll be back soon enough to talk about Bjork and to battle tourette once again.

It's all about the grilled halloumi!

"Next round of acts coming in Feb. Any guesses?"

He can do the first in the football thread.

I thought the '5 year rule' was the Metallica thing. I just don't expect bands to play with a shorter gap than that as it's boring. Even if Muse were booked for 2015 I'd think it was a boring booking, as it's so soon after they last headlined, even though I'd enjoy it.

How can it be boring, if you will enjoy it?

I doubt its possible every year to make sure they don't repeat a headliner to soon (evidently), its like bands are supposed to disappear and be forgotten about once they have headlined a festival. People complain about the same headliners, but if any one else is suggested outside of the usual crowd, people start complaining they are to small...

It's a no win situation, so they put on any band which will shift tickets.

I'm LOLing at the poor souls that were trapped in for Eminem and how dangerous the C&S crowd was. Is everybody on this forum still crossing the road holding their mum's hand? The most dangerous thing was the puddles.

To be fair, didn't something happen with the barrier during C&S?

You have no soul

We do often discuss acts, despite what it looks like at the moment.
