How can anybody possibly justify that? Do they even have any fans left? They were horrible in 2010, worse than RHCP in '07, worse than The Strokes last year.

[jk1]

Were horrendous in 2010.

On late, finished early? Can't have been on for more than 40 minutes which was disgraceful for a sub really and just didn't work at all that high up (this was at Leeds)

Thought they'd be OK too but just was shockingly bad. Given that this is half a new band it just seem too high up.

[taylorswift]

Subbing The Cure. It just hurts.

[bennyk]

I hate paramore

[JBarbour]

Weird booking, weird position

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

I always thought you were a bit of a pain in the backside joe1990. I commend you for this thread!

Doesn't really target anyone this decision, the cure fans will moan about paramore and vice versa.

After 2010.. shite

[lightning1000]

I'm in the horrible position of being forced to see them as my wife loves them.

And before you all ask, no she isn't 12 (27). Haha

Worst thing is I've been forced to see them 3 times before as well. Eugh.

[Hart Attack]

Admittedly they were pretty average last time they played (although not nearly as bad as some people seem to think... mediocre, sure, but not downright terrible), but on the other three occasions I've seen them, they've been amazing. I guess they were just having an off-day back then, hopefully this time round we'll see the real Paramore (they might surprise you).

[lozareth]

I don't hate Paramore, don't like them much either mind, but hate the fact they're subbing The Cure :-/

[Poppington]

Utter shite!!!

[mattl]

Words cannot describe the boredom I suffered during their performance after Weezer a couple of years ago. Weezer were simply terrific and Paramour simply wern't, however with BBC below them this time they'll seem more lively in comparison.

Doesn't matter though, I'll be in the lock-up watching something else.

not too keen on the booking myself, would rather the maccabees took that position and paramore were confined to the tent to avoid the clash of maccabees/cure :/

I actually really like Paramore, or at least used to a year back or so. But I'm still really annoyed they've been booked, and totally agree that it is a wasted booking. It just doesn't make sense under The Cure. They've only released about three songs since they last subbed, and they've done an arena tour since then, so most fans have nothing to get excited about.

New album due in the summer.

[ReynholmIndustries]

Is there any space for another band to slip in above them? Paramore, BBC and you meat six all seem a space to high...

[VCK]

Not a fan of the band, singer has a cracking body but a plain face. Sums up my views on them really.

[Andy_47]

Really really surprised they're back after them being so bad in 2010. Happy since I'm a big fan of theirs but still, I can admit it when it's a farce and that's a pretty odd booking. Where are Bloc Party?

From Paramore's FB:

Paramore have been announced as one of the headliners for the 2012 Reading and Leeds festivals alongside The Cure.

Paramore ... one of the headliners

No, you are a Sub!

I used to love Paramore's early stuff, they were ace when I saw them in 2007 pre-Riot, but 2010 was well and truly crap, especially after Weezer's epic set! Disappointed to see they've been booked again.

[Jackmypie]

Paramore should back the fook out for the prodigy
