Lineup 2015

[mrtourette]

If Muse are at Glasto like rumoured then I reckon they might do reading in 2016. Although they might skip fests again for stadium shows

So they might play or they might not? I think you're on to something there.

I think they'll play Glasto next year for the publicity it gives and it won't really affect ticket sales for any of their own shows and if they do fest's the year after then Reading and Leeds will be the ones they do, with maybe another out of T or IOW

Of course glasto might not even want them, there will be a few big hitters for headline spots at glasto next year.

Radiohead, fleetwood mac and foo fighters for Glastonbury I reckon

Replace radiohead with Coldplay and looks about right.

[The Placid Casual]

Replace radiohead with Coldplay and looks about right.

I can't see Coldplay doing it again so soon, but I can see AC/DC playing

[mrtourette]

Who do people think will play R&L in 2015?

[Bisque]

Who do people think will play R&L in 2015?

Alt-J subbing/third. Will be horrible but I think likely.

[dentalplan]

Who do people think will play R&L in 2015?

Which people? Some think Beyoncé and some think Neutral Milk Hotel.

[Bisque]

Some think Beyoncé

Really???

[mrtourette]

Really???

Of the two you chose Beyonce to be surprised about?

I've said before that I had never even heard of Neutral Milk Hotel until they were rumoured for NME last year... I got loads of neg votes.

Thought they would be like the Midnight Beast.

[dentalplan]

Really???

Yeah sometimes people bring her up as a realistic option. No idea why. If you try and correct them then you get a response like 'well Macklemore played'...

Of the two you chose Beyonce to be surprised about?

...and if you point out NMH won't play then you get a response like 'well NIN, The Cure and (I forgot the other one) played'.

[mrtourette]

Well they did book The Cure.

[Bisque]

Well they did book The Cure.

The Cure headlined & played an exceptional set at Bestival the year before.

R&L always seem to get the "dregs" from Glasto, TitP or even Bestival to headline. Almost as if they are playing it safe. Hence why I think Mumford will headline with their next album.

[Often Smashing Pumpkins]

Foo Fighters announced for Rock Am Ring. Does that rule them out for R and L or could they perhaps come back to Europe later in the summer? If anything it makes them a lot more likely for Download or Glasto

[Bisque]

+Flo & the Mac after she does a Glastonbury

I think Glasto as they'll have another "rocky" band back. Could be either, I don't think money will be an option as album sales will go through the roof for G but DL will pay more. They've been rumoured for DL for a few years though

According to lucky foos were chased for download, but they aren't doing it.

I'm starting to think they will do wembley and come back to reading next year.

Lucky is pretty reliable & hasn't the band said they enjoyed their Wembley shows more than most big gigs (although that I guess they all say that)?

[kaosmark2]

Who do people think will play R&L in 2015?

Paramore.

[tyranicide]

Royal Blood and Two Door Cinema Club will be there. As will the usual suspects like Don Broco, Lower Than Atlantis, Mallory Knox etc. Fall Out Boy to sub or possibilly do a co headline if they try and make that a more regular thing. Limp Bizkit & Weezer too hope fully.

In terms of headliners I'm not really sure. There's a few possiblities but I can't really think if anyone who are almost expected to be there like artic monkeys this year.

[Andre91]

Metallica.

Pulp I think?

Glasto? Check

Bestival? Check

Something negative about R&L? Check

Couchy Bingo has become to easy, it's not even fun any more.
