Who said they would? 

Was that not your point? I must've misunderstood.

What I was saying was, could he drop in some main/NME acts also, if there were some big rock acts, obviously he doesn't appeal to the weeknd etc crowd.

He definitely could, I suspect it'll just be some from his stage though. Which from that list I would guess Modern Baseball, Frank Carter, Fallon (if its Brian), Dead! and Creeper.

Lower Than Atlantis as pit/lockup headliner?

I'd imagine headlining the tent would be more likely.

I'm now expecting The Weeknd headlining the NME with Jack Ü playing a closing set.

[Cavan]

On snapchat is says "9 @ 8" with 9 guitars next to the 9 and clocks next to 8. 9 acts announced tonight then loads more on Tuesday?

[justanothername]

It'll be The Pit tonight and any acts for Lock Up will be announced on Tuesday

[lightning1000]

Hopefully creeper are on the biffy day. They were great on Thursday in huddersfield. Grader were good as well supporting. 

They've now had 3 great eps, really looking forward to an lp now 

[DomDom1984]

Jack U will headline the tent outright.

[ThePushover]

According to the official R&L snapchat - there's 9 bands being announced tonight at 8pm.

It's the NME stage, not high on main. The Weeknd have been talked about for ages as having to probably headline Other at Glasto if he played, this looks very Kendrick with a Wireless set to me.

Yup.

[justanothername]

Should replace Ratboy with Ratboys. Far better

Not a Jack U/ The Weeknd NME coheadline then? 

Anyone think R&L might announce one of FOB/Biffy tonight and the other on Tuesday?

Benjamin Francis Leftwich is back and running by the looks of things - could he headline FR or is he too big?

His "one of these predictions is really close" in the last prediction thread was my favourite. Especially as nobody really predicted the Foals headliner to be announced in the last announcement.

Nah he said that in the general full prediction thread, not the prediction for the last announcement.

Ah fair enough. I still think he's full of it though.

[justanothername]

I'm right in thinking that Fallon is in fact Brain Fallon from Gaslight Anthem?

Also out of all those acts added to SR I'd be pleased with Frank Carter, Modern Baseball, Creeper and I'd probably see LTA again

Googling Fallon music only brings up Jimmy Fallon's musical guests so I'm guessing it is Brian Fallon and not some random DJ, hope it is anyway.

Anybody know where the new info has come from?

 

I assume Neil @eFestivals has heard some info. Biffy on TBC is assuring

[wairey]

Any chance of Catfish playing this year? Would rather them headline the NME rather than Bloc Party...

Id think about 4th down on main stage one day. But headlining NME would be a good spot for them, but unlikely

[thewayiam]

Bloc Party, Jack U and Frank heading NME with TOP and Crystal Castles taking sub positions.

The Weeknd playing 3rd under Biffy and FOB as 'sub'. The 1975 doing this under Foals/Disclosure with Courteeners below, and TDCC playing 3rd under RHCP and ID. Now starting to think TLSP will do the secret NME set as i don't see space for them, I don't see them doing anything other than high main now if they did play.

[FloorFiller]

Would The Weeknd playing under Disclosure and Foals not make sense considering he features on a Disclosure track? You'd think they'd want to get a couple of guests in for a big headline set like this
