Lineup 2015

[Andre91]

They need to get A$AP Rocky back. I'd be very happy with Kendrick too.

[Gucci Piggy]

Yeah they should get him back ASAP.

Also they should get Childish Gambino instead.

[BGW]

Is there any rumour of a hip hop headliner at all this year?

[Gucci Piggy]

Nah, no rumours at all really. I guess Kanye's possible if he's releasing a new album but I highly doubt it.

Also is it a new thing that if the headliner is so bloody w*nk that a suitable sub just doesn't exist they put a random hip hop act below them? Probably will happen anyway.

Is Drake a possibility at all after the Coachella announcement? Metallica would possibly cancel out the wishes of those after heavier acts, and after last years Macklemore, Paramore and Imagine Dragons slots more mainstream artists aren't totally unlikely, surely.

Also AlunaGeorge have a new album out soon, they went down a storm in 2013, reckon they may be back?

Drake is totally out of the question he doesn't fit the festival at all while as those other acts you listed do. Also Coachella line ups have no bearing on the R&L line up at all, infact they only share a few acts.

[Gucci Piggy]

Perfect.

[dentalplan]

I think the speculation for this year may be worse than any other since I joined.

[Gucci Piggy]

As in it sounds like it's gonna be shit?

Or as in everything happening on this board is abysmal and I want to die?

Just the regularity of 'this can happen because Macklemore/Jake Bugg' and repetitiveness of 'what do people think about [already heavily discussed act] playing?'. Doesn't matter though. Should get better in a couple of weeks or so.

[BGW]

Woah dude it was a question not a prediction, just pondering a possibility.

Sorry. I'm not attacking you about it, even though it does look like that. A lot of people have used that line though end neither of those acts were out of the ordinary anyway.

The quality of posting in general has been woefully poor. We should all be ashamed.

Nah don't worry about it, I'm new the the R&L thread. Perhaps it's because last year, half the acts were a dead cert by this point.

Speak for yourself brother sir.

[Gucci Piggy]

Ah just clocked that Rudimental are around next Summer. Guess they could be the dance headliner on the NME. Or even play on main, they seem suitable for sunny outdoor slots, but last time I suggested that most people seemed to think it wouldn't happen, so probably NME headline.

Edit: Played V last year, too, so yeah I think they're probably quite likely.

Speak for yourself brother sir.

You just proved my point.

[Gucci Piggy]

Hehe

[ToeJaylor]

Has everyone seen the apparent leaked Benicassim poster?

[BGW]

Link?

[DomDom1984]

I think it looks VERY credible.

[ToeJaylor]

I don't know how to post pictures but if you go on the Benicassim thread, it's on the last page. And I think it does look credible and quality at that!

[Gucci Piggy]

Oh God not the Benicassim thread

[Gucci Piggy]

Christ that lineup's shite.
