Lineup 2015

[Gucci Piggy]

I hope you're true.

[Hawky]

Would I be an idiot for suggesting, maybe the sub is headlining another festival (latitude perhaps) and they're announcing them first, then a couple weeks after, they can be announced for Leeds?

I'm thinking Portishead/ Alt-J/ TDCC (after pulling out last year)

Equally, it could be someone that's released/ releasing a tour and they're waiting to shift a few tickets first.

FOB...

Imagine Dragons...

Black Keys...

I dunooo

Or, It could be... Nick Cave

[Gucci Piggy]

Libs not claimed as exclusive at all?

[Hawky]

The special guest is obviously nick cave.

Id cry.

[Hawky]

Someone a while ago told me TDCC were playing...

They also said Courteeners were playing under Jamie T.

Plus I wouldn't be surprised if Caribou were put in between Tyler and DeadMau5.

[Hawky]

Are V announcing on the 9th?

Surely they can't have everyone.

[Gucci Piggy]

I think Major Lazer will be the remaining dance headliner or between Deadmau5 and Tyler. Caribou's not much of an R&L act.

[ToeJaylor]

V are announcing on the 2nd Hawky.

[rivalschools.price]

Nope, nobody's kidding themselves that Reading were expected to book a 50/50 split, but only nine out of 60-odd is obscene.

I'd say that 9 out of 60 is a representative percentage.About 15%.

Anyway, it shouldn't be about percentages and whether the singers are male or female.

If they are good, book them irrespective of what sex the singers are.

[the wonderwhy]

Nope.

[Hawky]

Caribou played in 2010 and they've got so much better since then.

[Hawky]

Plus, the NME Subheadliners normally have they're own font/ style

[TenInchToenaiIs]

Imagine libertines are at Glastonbury

[youwhatmate]

They should dig up Bloc Party for main sub, that would be hilarious. I sometimes wonder if they would've been bumped up to headliner and not faded so badly if they had a year off in '09/10.

Justice for dance stage headliner.

[Mezhyp1]

Caribou played in 2010 and they've got so much better since then.

He's got massively bigger, and better

I would be surprised personally if he's been booked for R/L this year, doesn't really go with the kind of act they've booked this year unfortunately

Ed Sheeran after he sells out the third date at Wembley...? I know, he's probably a headliner in all but the fact he hasn't headlined anything yet, and 'isn't a Reading act' despite having played just when he was breaking through and there being so little respect for that in their line-ups these days anyway...

Highly unlikely but it wouldn't surprise me. Would also help boost the Friday a lot whereas at the moment it looks weaker than the Sunday and especially the Saturday.

Jamie xx is bare lo m8

We will have to see. I would HATE for it to be Ed. But if you read into, and I know I shouldn't, the special GUEST thing, maybz. I personally can't see Ed Sheeran playing Leeds and Reading again. EVER.

[dentalplan]

Can someone sum up the general feeling towards this so I don't have to read back PLEASE.

I think it's good. There seems to be a lot of room to fit in other acts so that's even better. When I say good I don't mean 'get a ticket' good but I think it's a decent go.

Second this,,

[supreme]

Yeah thinking about the NME acts, they do usually have a logo for the subheadliners on NME! So hopefully we have 3 sub nme!

[Macadinho94]

Could it be Ben Howard? Recent album and currently touring so would want to delay the announcement somewhat? Though the dream booking for me would be Weezer

[DGrant261]

Only since 2012

[TenInchToenaiIs]

Its alright, Friday is basically dicks, Saturday is okay, Sunday is

[Hawky]

Only since 2012

So it wouldn't be unfair to expect the same this year.
