2014

The longer Pendulum stay out of festivals, the higher the demand for them will be so maybe Knife Party next year and Pendulum 2015. If KP were at V, I doubt I would see them as I would probably be seeing one of the two top stage if I got a ticket

[Matt42]

Katy perry could be a contender for next year.

Her new single Roar is 16 in the UK from pre-orders alone.

It's also predicted to be the highest selling and fastest selling single of 2013.

[daniel.k]

I know she is huge but I would rather her not headline or if she did then many she could headline a capital fm concert instead. I like her songs but she is no where near Beyonce and to headline a year after Beyonce the comparison would be made I think

[Com Truise]

She probably wouldn't turn up half an hour late though

I think it would make more sense to leave Pendulum out of the festival circuit next year, and just do one more year of KP. Especially if KP's album is getting released first in the year, suggests Pendulum's album might have a later release date. Although they could do some shows pre new album material, and then 2015 shows post new material.

I think Pendulum are looking more at late 2014, I reckon R&L have a good chance of securing them 1st but I'm quite confident they'll also do Glasto again in 15 should that all happen.

The idea of a new album without touring is only going to get hype and get people saying, tour!!

Can see Reading getting either aswell, just to piss you lot off

Katy perry is my guilty pleasure for sureeee

Unless I'm mistaken she had a mid-afternoon slot on 4Music last time she played V in 2011. Yes Roar is an anthem and the sales of it are huge but I can't see her suddenly jumping to main stage headliner just through one song. And in any case, 2011 was the Teenage Dream hype so she was hardly much less popular then.

EDIT: Sorry my mistake, her last appearance was 2009, before the Teenage Dream hype. But it was still mid-afternoon on 4Music back then so even 5 years on I can't see her anything better than third from top on main.

Don't bank on that, I think I'd rather see V put less emphasis on dance after this year's crowds anyway Edited August 31, 2013 by Zac Quinn

Lily Allen has officially launched her music comeback this morning - I'd say it's between Katy and her for this year's Jessie J slot next year.

[daniel.k]

I can't see Lily Allen being third on main but I could see Katy Perry doing it. Looking at this year's line up the top 3 didn't really flow much so she could play under any headliner pretty much.

I don't think V will book less dance acts just based on crowds this year. The Rudimental crowd was big and Calvin Harris was too. I heard someone saying the kings of Leon crowd and the Calvin Harris crowd met in the middle of the two stages but I'm not sure if that was true

[Pothuthic]

I can see Katy headlining 4Music if we get a Mumford/Coldplay year next year

[daniel.k]

Could happen yeah, even if it was killers on main she could do 4Music. I think more people would like to see mumfords and Katy rather than killers and Katy

[Pothuthic]

I wouldn't mind Katy either tbh, she's decent enough, might persuade me to not take a year off

[daniel.k]

You shouldn't take a year off even if Katy isn't there

[Boris The Spider]

I wouldn't mind seeing her, she's no headliner though.

[Boris The Spider]

Also, don't see how she would be more credible than 1d.

Katy has more than just teenage girls as fans

[Dead throne]

That's a bit sad lol

[Bunny]

I watched Katy Perry a couple of years ago thinking she would be real good entertainment.

That's half an hour of my life I'm never getting back.......

[Pothuthic]

If I'm honest since 2009 she's had many more hits and has "grown" more in staging etc, think she is better now

[daniel.k]

Same as lady Gaga. I think Gaga could be a name thrown into the hat as she has a new album soon and the single she released is selling fairly well. Gaga wasn't high last time she was at V but she is a headline contender. Whoever said Katy couldn't make the jump from low main stage to headliner must think Gaga has no chance at all just because of the jump :-P

I think Gaga could headline and Katy Perry play where Jessie J did this year or even sub.

[Pothuthic]

Gaga is flopping

[daniel.k]

She's getting a lot weirder...If that's possible. Her new video is strange but I think she is still massive worldwide even if it's not for the right reasons

[Matt42]

Gaga is barely flopping her new single just isn't number 1?

Yet katy's is 1 everywhere, Katy just obviously has the better (more universally liked) song.

Gaga is still much much much bigger than Katy in terms of a stage act/headliner material.

[Pothuthic]

It didn't reach the top three despite all the promotion
