Longitude in Ireland just released their line-up, worth noting that The Vaccines are not subbing their either and they are below Sbtrkt, James Blake and Caribou and the headliners on the poster. As a medium sized festival, you would probably expect them to be in contention for a headline spot, maybe they won't sub Reading?

[ClemFandango97]

Oh yeah, and hello again.

[dentalplan]

It's worth noting Longitude is in Ireland where they didn't play the biggest arena or have a no. 1 album and Hozier is headlining it. And that's about it.

[Gucci Piggy]

They're gonna headline the Lake Stage at Latitude.

[zico martin]

Well its not looking like a very inspiring line up so far, any hopes or rumours on who might be up against the behemoth that is mumford & sons?

[charley]

There's no way Suede would headline NME, it's R/L 2015, be reasonable

You are probably right but when bands like Blink can headline the whole thing I dont see why not as Suede were certainly bigger than Blink ever were and sold out a pretty big Academy tour last year (which was probably the best gig i saw last year). Plus as you say there is the whole NME tie in and who knows maybe a new album by then too.

I'd certainly watch them above Metallica or bloody Mumford. But i am old!

Valid except teenagers couldn't care less about Suede.

[charley]

Do modern teenagers like Blink? They never really struck me as the sort of band that would pass the test of time, I guess the headliner booking means they do, it always seems wierd to me that a band disappears for a few years (like Blink) and when they return they are a bigger booking than they were at their peak (they were never headline material in their 'prime').

Wont the teenagers be watching Mumford or some such shite anyway?

[tyranicide]

Have you not listened to a Blink 182 album? They're the ultimate LADS

[charley]

I do have the big one whatever it was called. Not listened to it a great deal, I remember it had a song about fucking a dog up the arse. #Lads.

3rd headliner announced Tuesday

[Mezhyp1]

3rd headliner announced Tuesday

The quote they give is strange, you'd think it was a solo artist, sneaky

The quote is one of the worst things I've ever read in my life

[Matt42]

can someone clarify if 'next tuesday' means tuesday or the tuesday after

[Often Smashing Pumpkins]

The quote is obviously from Doherty isn't it?

The 24th of Feb.

24th.

Sounds like the sort of thing Jack White would say and then they announce the fourth headliner with the poster.

So they're just announcing The Libertines and not the poster? That's a first - the poster when all the headliners have been announced.

[#FreeComTruise]

The quote is obviously from Doherty isn't it?

He strikes me as the type to say like a lot, probably is Pete rather than Carl.

Just hoping they announce some more decent bands on the undercard to make getting a weekend ticket worthwhile.

Oh, is it just the headliner being announced? Bleh

[huntyyy]

The article on the reading website indicates 'The third headliner and more'

[JSmurphy]

Certainly sounds like something Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter would say.

[dentalplan]

Oh, is it just the headliner being announced? Bleh

Oh I just looked and it's a 'next wave of acts' as well.

Also check the day tickets price.

Did anyone hear the Pete interview they had when they were announced for T in the Park? It sounded heavily edited, I won't be surprise if this quote came from that

He was talking about thailand then suddenly went.. "Oh yeah and T in the Park that'l be good"

I'm trying to find it, but it was quite a while ago so I won't be surprised if it's gone from the world.
