Lineup 2015

[Gucci Piggy]

I'm just staying convinced that we're having Linkin Park so that it's impossible to get my hopes up. If we got them without bracing myself for it I'd probably combust.

[supreme]

If Libertines were playing Glastonbury but NOT headlining, would they still be in for a shout?

[Unpredictabledrugs]

So the journo who wrote the piece in Thailand about them playing R+L was talking s**t?

[dentalplan]

To be fair, this could have been an old caption for the picture or something couldn't it?

I dunno with either one. We can just wait and see. Them subbing both is reasonable though.

They'd be in with a chance of subbing but not headlining.

[Matt42]

I won't be surprised if they sub both and sub T in the Park too

[Gucci Piggy]

They're gonna sub Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, Reading and Leeds, T in the Park, V, Sonisphere, Bestival, Latitude and Parklife.

Yeah that's kind of what I'm thinking at the moment. They'd be a big sub but it's possible.

[kurtwba]

Did anyone manage to find out if that article was fake? i still have my money on them playing R+L.

o will

actually I retract my T statement because I can't see T pulling anyone big enough for them to sub too...

What do you mean? The article wasn't fake. The picture wasn't fake. The caption might have been incorrect but it was removed fairly quickly either because it was wrong or they jumped the gun in using that as a fact about the Libertines.

Who are R+L gonna have bigger for them to sub?

[Matt42]

Metallica

[dentalplan]

Do you remember who they subbed last time?

[Matt42]

Do you remember who they subbed last time?

Last time they subbed after not playing any shows for 6 years... they probably didn't want to give them a headline spot because it was unclear if there was any hype for their return considering they ended on such bad terms.

[cragzy]

2008 Metallica had tenacious D subbing under them, also what's this pic goin round that was on photobucket which has been deleted ? Can anyone pm me it please ?

[cragzy]

And the last time libs played they subbed under arcade fire in 2010

That's utter shit dude. Their reunion was a massive prospect and had been talked about for years as Pete was in the paper all the time and the whole Kate Moss thing. They might have been a possibility for a headline slot but I don't think they wanted to risk them pulling out. If they take sub slots again then they're obviously not considered a headlining prospect by anyone.

No idea where you get the idea that they'd only agree to sub a huge act or that they'd sub Metallica or that T couldn't get anyone bigger than Metallica so they won't play.

Don't forget Download, co-subbing with Judas Priest

Ow was that it, that's ok I guess I'd be abit gutted if libs don't play,but linkin park are pretty good live I saw them back in November in manchester and they were sick

[Yellow_Fellow]

Aye Libs would be a sub OR headline they aren't sure fire for either slot

[Mezhyp1]

o will

Agreed, I could see them headlining T on the Friday night quite easily

Wasn't there a line in the article that said they were playing R&L that was deleted as well as the caption?

If it was both that would make me think the journo probably had heard something.

Truly the System of a Down of indie music.

[Hawky]

Saw Libs in Portugal last year. They were wrecked. Carl could hold it together but pete WOW. He could barely move, let alone play.

I don't know how they'll be now Pete is 'Clean'....
