If it was Lineup 1996

Bit pre 96, that lot.

[ClemFandango97]

Kanye West

"Special guests" NWA

 

I'd love that don't get me wrong, but I doubt NWA would want to play under Kanye bearing in mind the fact that, principally, he is the very opposite to what NWA are.

As Florence is playing (and headlining) festivals next year I can see her finishing the album tour at Reading

[dentalplan]

She played (and headlined) festivals last year.

[Matt42]

It was more the point of her confirmed doing the festival circuit next year

Don't think it was ever in doubt as they've been doing European festivals every year since formation.

2013???

I'm sure a group of (what were) young black men innovating in hip hop, while bare facedly confronting institutional prejudice would look down on Kanye West

I'm sure of it

[dentalplan]

2013???

 

Yeah. 2013 and 2014, they played one single festival each summer, both in Poland.

 

Point being that they're usually in the mix to play, and particularly next year on the second year of a new album. I reckon it'll be IOW or V or something for them; I think R+L will go with Foals and probably seek to branch out a bit with the other two bookings.

[#FreeComTruise]

The 1975's next album will have to be a massive hit for them to be even considered in the discussion of headliners. Given there hasn't even been a single as of yet from their new album I struggle to believe why R&L would consider them as a headliners.

 

While I think The 1975 headlining is ridiculous, their next album will almost definitely be a massive hit considering the following they've amassed.

You don't sound very sure

[justanothername]

That came from a very reliable source, he also gave me who was going to be supporting LTA (As It Is and Moose Blood) which was announced this morning, back in May time

You told us it was The Wonder Years first though

Inspirational

[oneoftherest]

And because this person is privy to the support acts of some club gigs, they're also going to know the proposed headliners for a massive festival?

If you read what I said, it was the word going round the guest camp and also, he works on a pretty big festival himself, I won't say which as it might end him up in shit but yeah

[oneoftherest]

You told us it was The Wonder Years first though

Wonder Years were offered the Shikari tour and decided to take that instead

[Yellow_Fellow]

If you read what I said, it was the word going round the guest camp and also, he works on a pretty big festival himself, I won't say which as it might end him up in shit but yeah

The guest camp is 50% +1's so I don't know why that counts for shit

[benus80]

For what it's worth and I had the same reaction you lot will, the word going round the guest campsite was that who they have in mind for next years headliners was Jay Z and The 1975

 

I think they must be having a laugh or a bit high/drunk about saying 1975 are next year's headline. They have only had 1 album how can produce a set list for 90min show?

But then what would him being a 'reliable source' and correct about some unrelated thing have to do with what people of unknown authority saying it on the guest campsite?

[VCK]

N.W.A. would only ever headline, especially with all the massive hype about the film.

 

I should know because I keep predicting them.

[VCK]

No, New Order were never subbing, and BBC were never leaked as playing third until the day.

 

But it was leaked on the day, that was the thing.

[Gucci Piggy]

I think you imagined it. There was a leaked poster with New Order on which didn't have BBC in third, and there was someone who leaked the actual lineup with BBC in third which people questioned.

[Gucci Piggy]

Probably Matt on his illegal substances.
