Lineup 2015

[sjseabass]

They just mentioned the Fiery Furnances on Radio 1. Figured kaos would want to know.

[kaosmark2]

Radio 1 know the Fiery Furnaces exist?

[stevieg1993]

Faithless are headlining boardmasters, could they possibly be the mystery sub or would it be too weak I dunno

[dentalplan]

Nah. Even if they were available on both Friday and Saturday of R+L it doesn't seem to be the sort of act R+L book.

The mystery sub isn't actually a mystery. It's just alt-j.

[stevieg1993]

I know but take alt j out the equation just make it more interesting. Never know might be a band or musician you never saw coming.. We can hope.

[stevieg1993]

Could be zaine from 1d hahaha

That be the ultimate troll

[JonSnuh]

Catfish and the bottlemen Twitter takeover at 3. Prepare for some laddish banter again

It was the entertainment news guy. He also mentioned the Super Furry Animals. Clearly gunning for a move to 6 Music.

They are playing sw4 on the Saturday anyway. Edited March 27, 2015 by thetime

[ladbrokeboy]

anyone noticed they've moved run the jewels to be on before limp bizkit? if discussed before and ive missed just ignore me

[dentalplan]

Nope not at all. It kind of makes sense as that was the date they previously had listed but being above Peace is a bit of a head scratcher. I know some people think we predicted Peace a little high but RTJ aren't a bigger name, really.

[kingcrawler]

I thought Run the Jewels were a bit too low where they were previously, now I'd probably say they're too high. As dentalplan says, they're not bigger than Peace so not sure why they're above them.

[justanothername]

Well I'm glad about that as it means there is finally someone to get excited about on the Friday for me

[atomised]

Will perhaps flow better like that and works out well for me

[rawaudioinput]

They must be expecting RTJ to grow as a name between now and August; considering the wall-to-wall coverage they're getting I'd say that's a possibility

Yellow's blog isn't major coverage.

If it wasn't for this forum I'd have never heard of them

[dentalplan]

Just watch Kerrang! TV, huh?

Your friends aren't hip, hop and happening enough/spend inordinate time talking about music on the internet

[sjseabass]

If this means I can see Alt-J and Peace I'm all for it. You're right it's weird though. Now that precedent has been set it wouldn't surprise me to see an act or two slot in above Tyler to resolve the stupid Kendrick clash now.

[dentalplan]

The weird thing's not that an act has slotted in as that happens all the time and probably would have happened anyway, and Metronomy even switched days and moved up a slot last year, but RTJ switching and moving up four slots above a couple of bigger acts is what's odd. Alleviates a clash between Peace and Bastille though which might have been a thing.

[sjseabass]

Yeah I meant it in the sense that my perception of whether an act is big enough to sub NME is off. I thought Peace were comfortably big enough for that, but apparently they and the festival are happy sticking them in a lower slot. So my perception could be equally off for Tyler.

You realize with that Peace and Bastille will almost certainly clash now. It was before that they wouldn't.

Obviously not, otherwise I wouldn't have said that.

[Yellow_Fellow]

FUCK YEAH
