He was. Headlined Tuts I think.

aye Tuts 2012, R1 2013* [obviously fuck you Will], main 2014. It's a good job they have Biffy otherwise I'd be slating them to absolute fuck

that's completely ridiculous, i'm surprised he doesn't refuse on the grounds of having such a boring and repetitive schedule. i can only assume T pay well although I don't know that.

he gets massive crowds at T to be fair, if there's no one on at the same time due to the late license thing I'll probably go watch him anyway because he's supposed to be good fun live

Apologies, I wasn't following festivals when I was 11 :P

Neither was I :P read it on the T forum this last week

Jason Derulo could happen, he is doing a few minor festivals, could be a good booking, Ed Sheeran is likely, I doubt he'd sub after one album though? Rizzle Kicks are likely, Pixie Lott seems likely, she has a new single out.

Surely Emeli will be saved until next year with a successful sophomore album? James Morrison could happen again surely a new album is due? I'm doubtful that Labrinth will be back this year, is Guetta touring?

Rita Ora could do it again, Tinie could happen, are TDCC at reading? Jessie J is probably unlikely, John Newman is likely, I think Ellie Goulding will be there again, Calvin could be an easy enough repeat booking.

I'm pretty sure The Saturdays wont be here, Chase and Status easily could as could James Blunt, Rudimental are there, Ella Eyre is probably there in an arena or futures spot, London Grammar are ruled out aren't they? Odell maybe, Gaga unlikely, The Vamps will be there I'm pretty sure of it.

Elyar Fox probably in an early arena spot, Dizzee possible 2nd stage headliner, Little Nikki around the same as Elyar.

On top of this Sam Smith, Naughty Boy, Clean Bandit and Macklemore could happen?

It looks like Ed will be subbing Biffy at T at the moment, so I think he can sub V as well.

No idea about TDCC, can see them back at R&L though.

Don't think Calvin will play unless he headlines, I think after being bumped up to headline T and IOW it's likely he won't accept lower at V.

Chase & Status are a possible sub.

I think Dizzee would still sub as well, I know he's headlining Y Not, but that's a pretty big coup for the festival, he subbed Glasto, he'd probably still sub at R&L, so I reckon he'd sub V too, he's not dropped that far in stature.

I think Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are busy V weekend? Not sure on that though.

Calvin is doing somewhere else that weekend im pretty sure, and TDCC are exclusive at latitude.

I dont think Guetta will be doing anywhere this year as he isnt in the creamfields line up but calvin harris is, so maybe guetta is having a year out.

I hope C&S are at V, and I could see Dizzee at V if Lily Allen doesn't sub. Dont know why but ive never got too into her being at V, maybe just because I dont listen to her ever

With V letting people down, he might not be there. 'Good Times' being lyrics from a song of his so maybe thats why they are using his picture. Hope he does turn out to be there though.

Where could people see him playing, Headline Arena?

Theres absolutely none around this summer deserving to play higher on the bill than Nile Rodgers. The Arena tent would overflow by about 10x capacity.

Ed Sheeran is likely, I doubt he'd sub after one album though?

Rita Ora could do it again

New albums for both are expected early summer.

On top of this Sam Smith, Naughty Boy

i'm fine

Macklemore could happen?

playing two festivals in denmark on v weekend. i think jessie j did that last year but then mack has r&l weekend free and he'd go down a treat there so..

I was thinking it was a bit ridiculous buying a JT ticket only to see him at V but if Nile is there the rest of the weekend will just be a blur so i won't remember JT anyway hahaha. oh god i'm going to spend this whole weekend dreading that Monday will be letdown now aren't I :(

I'm gonna be spending the whole of tonight praying I get the job I have an interview for tomorrow otherwise I'm going to be missing out xD

All I was thinking was him playing the slot Basement Jaxx played last year. I would have thought he would be best at night, but wouldnt see him headlining main or second tbh. Unless he plays mid day on one of them

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CAN NILE RODGERS BE THERE, ID LITERALLY DIE.

I love that guy so much, if it's him and Timberlake you can buy me a ticket now.

Well if you literally die you might not actually see him... :P

What if the unthinkable happens and Nile rodgers and JT both headline a stage on the same day :O

His back-catologue is about 10x as impressive as Basement Jaxx. He's written and produced several of the most iconic pop songs of the last 40 years for gods sake :P Including the best-selling song of last year (if we erase Mr Thicke from history) :P

Agreed he is huge but I would be disappointed if he headlined, but I think he would be better in the dark. Shame V doesnt have a 3rd outdoor stage

    • I wasn’t slagging Scooter off, they are undeniably silly. As I said, they are the definition of a meme booking for Download. People requested them for years because it was silly. 
    • Wolf Alice - Newcastle on Blue Light Tickets
    • Having done all three, Porto is lovely, very chilled but nowhere near as exciting as Barcelona (nor as many options). Bilbao BBK has charm but again not a patch on Barcelona really.   ps and the beer was 5.50, not 5, last year 😉 
    • Honest question and with the risk of getting slaughtered, do you feel people should stop the chatting on the entire field? When my group is in the front rows we surely keep the talking to a minimum and largely only about how great or bad the artist is. But surely on the main field when you are further back (lets say around the bars (200 meters from the podium) you should be able to have a conversation. If people are still annoyed about that I would recommend them moving up further.
    • I just genuinely think they don't understand technology and its felt like this since the invention of the internet.   Also see say a speech on a Monday saying we want to be a world leader in "this thing" then on a Wednesday another speech saying "this thing" is bad and needs to be banned/regulated out of existance.
