Lineup 2015

[kemosabe]

Thats was them at there very best... At Hurricane last week they were poor and boring tbh and i had reports they were similar at other festivals in the past

If they play Glasto level then brilliant for R&L... If hurricane level it will be a bang average headliner

[lightning1000]

yes but if that's the reason why, then there's no reason for any other festival to book them off that performance

Just stop it with all this booking off of a performance nonsense. It's just not applicable to acts that have already headlined the fest . As I said, I don't think they will play, but if they do it certainly won't have anything to do with how they go down at glasto.

[Yellow_Fellow]

as they were only drafted in for glastonbury as they were in the area at the time and hadn't done it before.

ehhhhhhhh

[kaosmark2]

ehhhhhhhh

I'm sorry, is the Lostprophets lover calling someone out about a claim of reasons for slots?

I want Metallica subbed by Deftones next year

[DarthSaul]

I'd say Metallica's booking is the most special reason out of all three of this years headliners though; they've always wanted to do it, first heavy rock band to play and they're one of the biggest british bands of all time.

They aren't British?

Wow #scenes

[kemosabe]

Who do we think other festivals will be trying to get?

Glastonbury: Fleetwood Mac, Coldplay, Radiohead

Isle of Wight: QOTSA, Arcade Fire

Bestival: Calvin Harris, Jay Z?? + ??

T in the Park: Green Day, Mumford & Sons, Red Hot Chili Peppers

V Festival: Jay Z, Mumford & Sons

Sonisphere: Black Sabbath, Foo Fighters, Muse

This is clearly all wrong (i dont even know what half of these festivals look to book anyway) but just getting the ball rolling

Yep

I can see your Glasto headliners coming in though!

[kemosabe]

Glasto wont affect R&L though what about the rest of it...

Also what kind of festival is bestival... I dont even know where it is

[TheSilence]

Well Beck is playing Bestival this year if that helps give an indicator!

Your other guesses seem alright, like. T won't have Mumford after having them 2 years prior I shouldn't imagine though

[TenInchToenaiIs]

Bestival will be going for Daft Punk probably

They've got to come out and play one of these days

[mrtourette]

Sorry did Matt say that Metallica only headlined Glasto because they were 'in the area'?

Acoustic set at the Summer solstice at Stonehenge maybe.

[Role Model]

If Reading get Metallica and Kanye West I'll be back after not going for the last couple of years.

[6t6o6m]

I'm going for Slipknot, arcade fire and some rapper

[the wonderwhy]

Nah Slipknot ain't gonna headline Reading

[2rare2die]

Nah Slipknot ain't gonna headline Reading

I'm sure you said something similar about Blink-182 this year

[the wonderwhy]

I'm sure you said something similar about Blink-182 this year

True but that was because I didn't think they'd do something as ridiculous as book someone to headline twice in four years.

Slipknot is different reasoning- they're not quite big enough to headline in terms of the demographic, could probably sub but would definitely get a better offer from both Download and Sonisphere
