Lineup 2016

[thewayiam]

Reading offered them 2nd bottom on nme this year

 

We on about PVRIS here? Probably more ideal, grew a bit since their booking.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Red Hot Chilli Peppers

Ed Sheeran

The Killers

Possible Headliners?

No

One isn't touring, another is on an indefinite hiatus and the other is probably only-just headline size now.

[thewayiam]

21p

Ah fair enough, the usual then. 2nd bottom one year, end top the next lol.

[sjseabass]

No

Wait, what? Which one are you saying is only-just headline sized?

[Gucci Piggy]

Please did Zac Quinn just say RHCP are only just headline sized

Really do think Foo Fighters will instead go back and do Glastonbury next year. I can't see Deftones subbing. Slaves won't be as high as 4th either.

 

I also think Wolf Alice will be bumped to 3rd, like Royal Blood, Imagine Dragons and The Vaccines have been recently. Seems to be something of a "rising stars" slot.

 

Otherwise, pretty realistic and I can see a lot of those bands playing next year, in similar slots.

Given all three have done Wembley Stadium or some other huge outdoor show they're all definitely headline sized.

[DGrant261]

Really can't see Nickelback or Gorrilaz ever being on the bill and I don't think Kooks/1975/ADTR/Disclosure would play those slots. Rest of it seems pretty plausible.

[Shaun182]

Gorillaz 3rd down? LMAO

[justanothername]

Positions are all over the place. Quite a lot of acts you have put there have played higher or the same position (or equivalent) in past three years. I think the artists that this applies to are Disclosure, Two Door Cinema Club, ASAP Rocky, We Are The In Crowd, Young Guns, The 1975, Chvrches, HIAM and Architects. Also Rudimental could sub the main even. Then you have some acts playing too high like AWOLNATION (you know he played 7th on the NME this year right ), The Kooks, Wolf Alice, Nickleback and Gorillaz (these two could headline but they wont). Still some decent guesses there and I reckon a few of those bands will show next year.

 

EDIT: I was meant to say that Nickleback and Gorillaz were too low, not too high

Are you sure ALOWNATION playing 4th on the main is plausible
Also ADTR could easily headline the NME, would be pretty cool if they did

How about the possibility of Evanescence playing? Sub to Foo Fighters?

 Ah yes, missed Awolnation from my list  .

 

I think ADTR would be more likely to do a main stage set, but I guess an NME headline set could work.

[Andre91]

ADTR headlining the NME would be wonderful. I think they will sub Main in 2017 though if they have an album out by then.

[Gucci Piggy]

JAN just said Nickelback and Gorillaz are too high init

Evanescence subbing? If that happens feel free to carpet bomb the festival

Oh, so I did. My bad

Not at all

[oneoftherest]

Often bands take lower slots one year as they are promised a better slot the next year, so I expect bands like Don Broco to get a better billing next year as a result of a lower placing this year

[mrtourette]

Most bands play lower than you would expect because fans of the band can't see how unpopular they really are.

 

"Don Broco are way better than that slot, there must be a reason they're playing that low other than most other people think they're shit"

People said that last year.
