i'm thinking the "very special guests" billing is just compensation for the fact they've got a crap slot to be honest

edit: maybe it's V's take on the current co-headliner trend, two acts who aren't worthy of headlining but stick them on at the same time and wahey you've got yourself enough of a crowd pleaser on at once as you would with a full-strength headliner

Very special guest could still mean they get to headline a stage.

Pretty sure we already got info on here that Axwell was headlining mtv

yeah looks like chase and status have got it wrong to me to be honest

killers/paolo nutini/lily allen/rudimental

axwell/chase and status/sub focus

chic/someone unnanounced

fairly clear the other day is:

JT/Sheeran/Example/Kaisers/Tom Odell

Elbow/Manics/Blondie

Alesso/Above & Beyond

I think you have Killers day right, im not sure about JT day main stage i havent had chance to have a proper think about it all yet

You mean killers? They aren't unworthy of a headline slot just because people on here hate them

It was questionable if The Killers merited a headline booking in 2012 though, but at least then they were touring their least successful album. They've done absolutely nothing to continue being deemed headline status in the last two years, in fact they are supposed to be on hiatus. ...

edit: don't get me wrong I like them, but they're nowhere near as popular as they were in any of the years they previously headlined.

21 announced for The Killers day and 27 for JT.

Still some reasonable ish sized acts to come then

Yeah I noticed that too. Maybe an Arena headliner like last year, or a second stage sub or third. T in the Park have just announced Reverend and the Makers, DJ Fresh and The Charlatans so maybe we would see them again

At least it adds a little more to the idea Bastille will be on the Killers day

K

Ha ha. The Killers dont merit headline status. Christ some of the comments on this are brilliant

What? I think they merit headline status more than people such as Biffy

21 announced for The Killers day and 27 for JT.

Yes hopefully :)

The Killers not headline material. Are you serious?! :suicide:

They sold out Wembley Stadium 9 months ago for christ's sake!

I'd be insanely surprised if we don't get Razorlight

I wouldnt be surprised either, and maybe a few more from that line up. I am thinking about trying to go as I will be in the area around then. Razorlight, Dizzee, Scouting for girls and a few DJ sets sounds good for 15 pound a day
