In all fairness, lucky said this before me and I've maintained it all the time, check my posts. See how often they play R&L compared to V and T

To be fair it's a good shout with the prodigy and would be a perfect fit. Still very popular with people my age, I know plenty who make the short hop to see the prodigy and there also popular with the younger generation, they would probably need a big hitter as the other headliner though.

Would be funny if v managed to get arctic monkeys and prodigy from the clutches of r&l, would also be a step in the right direction for v.

it would also be stockpiled with w*nkers

prodigy crowd would be equally as bad as the C&S crowd at R&L, and arctics would be full of cringey fangirls, you can't win :(

They probably would. I'd say if the Oasis rumor is true enough, they may well have it lol.

Thing is with The Prodigy doing V, it opens up T and Bestival and like Tennants Vital

But if they do V and T as headliners then R&L aren't going to get away with subs. The thing that could well stop R&L getting them due to this as well is that they'd ask them to do no other show and yes they could share with T but this doesn't happen and hasn't for years, whereas with V there is no holding back.

Only thing that might stop Bestival is IOW

I've seen prodigy quite a lot down the years and the crowds always been fantastic, never seen the 'w*nker' element anyway.

I suppose there's more annoying people with arctic monkeys there boring live, nice haircut though.

I'm suprised they didn't do one of v or r&l this year with doing pukkelpop this year.

neither have I but the upcoming generation (mine) that are starting to attend festivals are dreadful, if you'd experienced chase & status like I had you'd understand, I think a lot of dance crowds are heading in that way, so if the prodigy headlined V, it would definitely attract a lot of bad sorts!

I saw chase and status at werchter last year and no twattish behaviour, perhaps it's just the Leeds crowd or I'm used to dicks more.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
