Stage times?

[rug568]

so off that I told you all the headliners.

[edfirth]

Someone who's at V this weekend could have predicted that the Foos and Kasabian would headline Leeds this year

EFestivals always has a few bands on the rumours page who end up not playing. Tenacious D and NOFX this year, My Chemical Romance the year before last, etc. Still the best source for what is 9 times out of 10 legit line-up information and we always end up knowing who the headliners are long before the announcement.

...still think Neil should go easy on us next year though. None of this "digging to China = Casa Bien = Kasabian" riddle malarky.

IMO, without anyone's help, should this happen this weekend, I reckon we'll already have a clue on next years headers. If two bands have 2.5 hours this year and Foo's possibly 3 at Reading(which is a piss take for people paying the same TBH but hey), he can do it for another band and accept they are going to try make it about them if that's what they do which I've heard if it means grabbing a solid band for the fest.

Biffy Clyro and Green Day for next year after this year I think we'll know. See how that sells on pre.sale. Your 3rd being The Killers or Blur. It'll be Blur IMO.

[edfirth]

Blur and Biffy could def happen. Not sure who else, maybe something nuts like Springsteen if The Cure is anything to go by

As for the Tenacious D thing. There have been rumours before that haven't been true, but Neil was ADAMANT that they were playing and had them as TBC

It's all down to who they can get though. Next year two of the headliners could be Biffy Clyro and Arctic Monkeys, who will both probably play 1 hr 30.

That said, Blur, Biffy Clyro and Green Day are a good shout for next year's headliners, and if that's true I can see Green Day getting three hours.

[edfirth]

If Green Day play this year why would they play next year too? Seems a bit odd

Just to point out to people, just read a bit on NME about Benn securing Foo's and The Cure and it has a list of the band splaying. There is no band mentioned before Pure Love to be playing.

Is there any reason why Bloc Party couldn't be doing that set on Sunday at Leeds?

and alll these suggestions for next year are really fucking boring. well abar blur and green day/no doubt/garbage additions above they are so recycled. the boss has only just played iow, biffy did soni last year, killers just did v.. there not that imaginative.

[edfirth]

All bands tour. It's impossible to have completely unique headliners that haven't played anywhere in the past 2 years

Foo's & Kasabian did IOW last year and The Cure did Bestival.

Gosh, 3 hours of Green Day next year? No thanks, you need to be good to get a long set

[LEMON_WOLF]

I guess the stage times for the other stages won't be released till tomorrow now

It'll be shit if Green Day are on before Pure Love. I really like Post War Glamour Girls and it'd be just full of Green Day fans not paying attention.

Meh I'll get there early and work my way to the back before Green Day start.

[rug568]

could Green Day play first? Could avoid the possible abuse of PWGG.

[Vieuphoria]

ahhhh good thinking Batman
