Lineup 2015

[Gucci Piggy]

Haha

[mrtourette]

I just don't imagine any non dance acts would headline ahead of them just now, their new album seems to have had great reviews and they are popular within the festival

I think what you're trying to say is that the only way they wouldn't 'outright' headline (ie close the stage) is if they were part of a co-headline/closing dance act set up, like TDCC a few years back or BBC last year.

Which is entirely possible, but what you're basically saying is that they're big enough to headline, too big to sub but OK for the position in the middle, and getting all that from the fact that they're playing Brixton.

And are they really as big as TDCC/BBC were? Didn't they play Ally Pally around the same time they did those slots?

Well they were 6th down on main last year and a move up from an equivalent slot on the NME would be in the top two, and I personally think they would be given a shot at headlining.

If 'with a closing set' is going to be the new 'coheadlining' bollocks where people think two acts that can't headline their stage club together - despite Bombay Bicycle Club being the biggest NME headliner last year and the only time 'with a closing set' has ever been listed as so - then count me out.

Just read back at the suggestions that All Time Low will sub in 2016 and threw up in my mouth.

Thanks for that.

He played a transvestite transgender in a film that came out over a year ago?

edit: wrong term.

He's playing the joker

[rawaudioinput]

It's a fairly extensive tour but the venues are pretty damn small; doesn't the Junction in Cambridge have a capacity of 650?

It looks very similar to the tour they did on the back of their first album

Okay?

BBC had done Ally Pally in 2012 and then did Earls Court in December after a no 1 album, hence why I think headlining NME was too low down for them, but given there Glasto/T slots I'm probably wrong.

Well they were 6th down on main last year and a move up from an equivalent slot on the NME would be in the top two, and I personally think they would be given a shot at headlining.

I really hope the 'closing set' thing was just a one off as last years 'co headlining' appears to have been. Having a closing set doesn't make a NME headline booking any weaker, but regardless of it to me Peace are still only really capable of subbing. It seems like the natural progression from 6th on main I'd say (Eg. Enter Shikari).

Don't know enough about all the venues, but their Manchester/London venues are twicce the size of those listed for their previous biggest tour, which shows a fair improvement.

filming for batman/superman isn't meant to start till 2016 and 30stm are touring atm, i have Jared on Instagram and 30stm seem to be doing a lot this year, I was surprised when they weren't announced last year for R&L with their new album being released that year

[Cammers]

If 30STM are announced, I hope they actually fill their slot with 100% music.

I saw them a RW a couple of years back and we had trampolinists and gymnasts running around the stage and a bunch of blokes dressed as gimps playing drums.

[Yellow_Fellow]

I'd rather that than listen to 30STM

[kaosmark2]

I'd rather listen to yellow caterwauling into a hairbrush than 30stm.

[Tobieski]

Everything Everything are releasing a new album on June, would be cool to see them somewhere on the NME tent

[Hawky]

Django django will be in the tent (NME)

[DGrant261]

Do you have any new info, or are you just stating an opinion (One I agree with)?

I was at this RW too, I didn't watch them but I walked along the back toward the barn, really weird, weird band, weird in this instance meaning shit

He's in the Suicide Squad film though, not Batman v Superman

[Matt42]

30stm are a complete joke of a band now. I reckon jared should break it up and continue acting since that's what he's good at.

They've always been a joke, but yes, he should definitely just act.

We'll have to pretend "Urban Legend" doesn't exist though.

[Gucci Piggy]

I turned up at the end of that 30STM set to get into the front section for Depeche Mode afterwards, and had to stand through Jared thanking all the "believers" out there and a load more pretentious shite and killed myself.

The song they played afterwards was even worse. Would have sooner chopped all my fingers off with a blunt knife. What a bellend.

They did two nights in London on that tour

It probably Jared trying to be an "a true artist"

Well Vaccines headlining Kendall Calling is a surprise...

Was it you that said their chances of being major festival headliners now look very small?

I might agree with you now! Maybe this 2 year blackout hurt their size a bit...

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Indie bands do seem to suffer if they take too long to record albums.
