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.

In the words of Ja'mie King; 'Sorry, but it's true'

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.

    • The Great Fete Festival (Sunday Only) Ocean Colour Scene day on Tickets For Good.
    • I was also at Ghost but seated. When they scanned my ticket's and they came up as seated they printed a small ticket with the seat number info.
    • I was standing for Ghost at O2 London last year where they put the phone in a pouch beforehand so I assume they're is a mechanism in place for people in seats. 
    • Most likely not, keeping an eye on Tixel and Twickets might be the best option.
