Lineup 2015

[justanothername]

Run The Jewels are playing Primavera so I'm still gonna hold out (pointless though it maybe) hope for Brand New, American Football and DFA 1979

[BGW]

I'd take Chet Faker and Caribou definitely. What are thoughts on James Blake? new album out this year I think, love to see but maybe not right for R&L?

[rivalschools.price]

Surely there is no way Frank Turner is big enough to sub, I'm sure there's was a convo in this thread a few pages back about his decline in popularity

I could imagine The Libertines/The Vaccines being pretty nailed on

If Jake Bugg can sub then surely Frank Turner can.

[rivalschools.price]

can't see it myself. That'd be three bands for old gits at a fest squarely aimed at the young.

Mumfords sound like music for old gits, ha ha.

[rivalschools.price]

Mumfords it is then have you heard anything on any other higher up acts playing, Neil?

Ouch! Hopefully someone like Refused will be playing the Same time as Mumfords

[mrtourette]

Babes In Toyland stand out at Primavera, Sleater Kinney, Fucked Up and Patti Smith also impressive. The rest is fairly standard I think.

[Tobieski]

Good to see DIIV doing stuff again. Hopefully be able to catch them over summer

[ToeJaylor]

Bit of a random shout but can anyone see Queen headlining at Leeds? Just seen some 'Festival Rumours' account on Twitter suggest Queen...

There's no chance of Queen, if you mean Queen with Adam Lambert then there's also no chance.

[ToeJaylor]

That's what I thought but just wanted to throw it out there haha

[gary1979666]

Definitely throw it out!

I still Cant believe that a legendary band like Queen would have an X-factor winner singing for them.

Who knows, the prize for whoever wins this years 'The Voice' will be the new singer in a reformed Oasis.Headliners 2016?

[DomDom1984]

If the guy has a good voice, which Lambert does, then why does that matter?

[Gucci Piggy]

Yeah Lambert was the highlight of the band when I saw them. Fills the role perfectly.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

I'd take Chet Faker and Caribou definitely. What are thoughts on James Blake? new album out this year I think, love to see but maybe not right for R&L?

i can never get my head around how big the guy is, maybe a strong Dance Tent headliner or maybe an NME sub

[Mezhyp1]

I think it would be a very strong dance headliner, more likely a few slots off the top in the tent

R+L have had ample opportunity to have had him play already and never booked him. Probably won't again this year.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Never?? That's surprising, thought with his Mercury award etc he'd be the kind of act they'd be all over these days

[devilman]

Mumfords sound like music for old gits, ha ha.

People that like them are already dead.

Bit of a random shout but can anyone see Queen headlining at Leeds?

Absolutely not.

[BGW]

I could see him on NME maybe if they were to have him alongside rumoured bands like The War on Drugs, that kind of popular/alternatave-esque stuff goes quite well. But right about them never having booked him, a shame really.

[Muppetmark]

Second catfish Brixton show. Nme headline?

[dentalplan]

They probably already have the NME headliners booked.

[DomDom1984]

Don't NME headliners usually play bigger venues than that anyways? Not MUCH bigger, but bigger.

[mrtourette]

How many venues are bigger than Brixton but not MUCH bigger than Brixton? And is two nights at Brixton the equivalent of one night at these bigger but not MUCH bigger venues?

[seanz25]

Is it just me who think Catfish are a bit shit and massively overhyped?
