Lineup 2016

[Matt42]

Sub NME / 4th down main stage I'd imagine

[dentalplan]

I don't really think those are equivalent slots. Couldn't see The Maccabees or All Time Low subbing the NME Stage. Alexisonfire different matter of course.

[Gucci Piggy]

I said that before the Glastonbury lineup was released

Yeah that was my point. You were right about their fest positions not really changing, but the Glastonbury announcement has changed that, albeit only at one festival.

[mooseof19years]

Not that it really means much but The Vaccines are headlining Jersey Live this year, bombay bicycle club subbed it last year and they headlined NME

[oneoftherest]

Smaller festival positions don't really mean a lot in comparison to the bigger fest's, Jersey Live just needed a big act as the headliner and The Vaccines satisfy that, they don't look much further than that

Reading and Leeds however is much different whereby they come under fire if they put someone way too high who aren't that current, for instance Dizzee Rascal headlining YNOT is big for them however Dizzee Rascal playing third down on Leeds Fest wouldn't wash very well

[JSmurphy]

Have Muse got anything planned next year yet? Fingers crossed I will be hitting up Glastonbury and Reading next year so hoping to catch them at one of those..

[Matt42]

I reckon Disclosure are looking very likely to sub next year..

[DGrant261]

Have my doubts about TDCC returning to anything higher than 4th down on main.

[Matt42]

Yeah can't see them coming back to bigger slots then 2013 now. I don't think there is really any hype for another album. 4th on Main seems like a better booking, can always bump them up in the future if they have another resurgence.

[Gucci Piggy]

They were booked to headline Latitude without the new album even being announced so I wouldn't be so sure.

[dentalplan]

You're using 'resurgence' wrong.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

You're using 'resurgence' wrong.

Giggle.

I'm pretty eager to hear the rest of that Foals song from that teaser video! I've also come round to the idea of Florence being one of the headliners next year. I also don't think ADTR will be about for a third summer. They've been touring Common Courtesy for almost two years, so I can see them taking a year off to get a new album out and then coming back to sub in 2017.

[conroy17]

I don't understand why Foals releasing a teaser has made so many people convinced they're headlining next year. I'm still set on them subbing Glasto next year and waiting until 2017 to headline.

[oneoftherest]

Agreed conroy

[dentalplan]

That isn't why people think they'll headline.

[Gucci Piggy]

That isn't why people think they'll headline.

But you said it was

[dentalplan]

But you said it was

No that was Floorfiller.

[thewayiam]

At the minute, I can't see past Foo Fighters, Flo and one other as headers. I think Disclosure, Imagine Dragons and TDCC are as good a bet as any for subs. The 1975 and CATB for 3rd's, I think CATB could do NME headliner but I also think there is a big chance they'll miss it and get a bigger outside slot.

NME: Enter Shikari, Major Lazer and 1 other.

While Imagine Dragons have sold their biggest dates out well, I do think they probably needed a better sale by now maybe on the others to get that headline next year. Based on putting Flo in, I'm leaving ID at sub.

[Matt42]

I don't think all three headliners will be acts who did Glastonbury this year

and I don't think we'l have three bands touring this summer, at least one will have new material next year.

It's easy to say Foo Fighters, Florence and Foals because they are playing other shows this year and not reading, leaving you to think whoever isn't there this year will be there next year, working on that logic - but it's never normally like that.

Who has suggested we'll have three headliners who did Glastonbury this year? That wouldn't even be possible without Kanye or The Who headlining, which I highly doubt will happen.

Edit: Yeah but it's a bit different as it would still be Foals' first Summer with a new album out. They're only playing a few this year, with none of them being in the UK.

And where did I, if you meant me suggest Foals? I didn't put them in as I'm not confident enough. I'm more sure of ID and I won't them them as I don't see two bump ups. I think with Flo as a bump up there is potential to have another very strong header, most likely with a balls sub.
