I think it will be Avicii doing the MTV headline slot, but as he isnt at T (yet) and Alesso and Steve are maybe it will be a repeat booking of Steve and Alesso do the other day headline Arena, with Nile Rodgers doing MTV stage.

If Chic headline a stage it'll be the Arena.

Arena won't be too small.

Majority of the punters will be too shallow to go anywhere other the main stage pop headliner or MTV dance/'indie' headliner. The crowd at the arena will be barren if Chic play, and the only people there are the only people I want to associate with at V.

I wouldnt say too shallow, they just know what they like and know what they have payed for. But I do agree the majority of people would be at the two top stages

God, Prodigy just sound so dated to me.

Saw Muse (who i hate) over them in 2008, and saw someone else over them whatever other year they headlined the second stage.

Is dated such a bad thing? They can still pull a crowd in and apparently still entertaining

Depends what you like. But I cringe every time I hear Breathe or Smack my bitch up. Some of Invaders must die (I think that's the album title) sounds alright

Ive never seen them live, but my girlfriend has and she thought they were pretty good. If they were on 2nd stage against JT then I think we would be seeing them

Hi guys, there is a gig review thread on the Reading and Leeds forum for acts that have been announced (to give people an impression of what they are like)

Would anyone who went to V last year be willing to come give a short (really just a few lines) on how Courteeners were last year (or if you have seen them at their own gig) :D

Steve won't be back surely..headlined last year, I'd be so angry if a headliner played two years running

I doubt steve would be back, but if he is I wouldnt be angry

Courteeners were effing amazing. Most of the crowd were seeing The Script, so they had a small crowd! But they nailed it. Great last two songs of not 19 forever and What took you so long.

All the other key songs in about a 10-12 song set with some of the new singles. Easily top 3 acts of the weekend with Travis and Stereophonics.

    • Generally shorter too, I imagine. 🙂
    • Will that work for arenas with seats? People will have their tickets on their phones and needs to find their seat.
    • Excellent new release from overpass today - well worth checking out.
    • Having lived here for 2 and a half years now my take is that security, safety and organisation are just not a priority in Spain. It's not even exclusive to festivals. It's a part of everything.   Simple example. I'm Irish and in Ireland if you assemble a construction site you have to adhere to a lot of regulations about cordoning off the site so nobody can enter and get injured. Here, you're walking down the foot path and suddenly without any warning you're in a construction site. If not, you'll suddenly find yourself directed onto the road to get around the construction.   Life is more laid back here in general. Pros and cons.
