Yeah I think we knew the Biffy/FOB combo was a back-up plan. I don't see how this is a fuck you to R&L, it just makes it seem even more of a poor decision by FR to market them as two headliners.

Uhhh how did you arrive at that? Why would they be sticking two fingers up at an event they're playing and the only festival willing to have them headline? Why would Fall Our Boy be unsatsified at coheadlining to the point they'd sub their coheadliner at the other show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MontheBiff1997 Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 How about we actually wait until the album is released before judging it, rather than deciding it is terrible due to a couple of 15 second clips.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Hmm just looking at the Rock en Seine leak; Quote Vendredi 26 Août 2016 :– The Last Shadow Puppets– Eagles of Death Metal– Two Door Cinema Club– Birdy Nam Nam– Caravan Palace– Breakbot– Royal Republic– ClutchSamedi 27 Août 2016 :– Massive Attack– Sigur Rós– Casseurs Flowters– Edward Shape & The Magnetic Zeros– Bring Me The Horizon– WolfmotherDimanche 28 Août 2016 :– Foals– Iggy Pop– Sum 41– Chvrches– Cassius– Ghinzu– Gregory Porter So Sum-41 won't be headlining The Pit/Lock Up if they're there at all. TLSP would have to squeeze onto Chilis day so that decimates the already tiny chances. Clutch, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros and Wolfmother could still slot in - that's all I'm really expecting.

There were two stadium headliners in 2013 as well. I don't think the likes of Chase & Status and The Vaccines are ready to step up. Certainly not the latter if they're not headlining stuff this year. Imagine Dragons would probably be a safer bet. Sum would be playing Friday Reading & Saturday Leeds right? Reckon they could slot in like 5th down on main?

Or FR headliner? 31 minutes ago, JackTheReadingGoer said: I know they're only playing one festival at the moment, but is Pendulum completely out of the question? Yeah for this year I'd say so.
