Lineup 2016

[dentalplan]

If they were gonna headline a UK festival that wasn't Glasto, I think it would be Isle of Wight or Bestival.

Also Tame Impala and Major Lazer are around at R+L time this year and not booked so I dunno why they're featuring in so many predictions for next year. Particular Tame Impala who are doing pretty much every single one they could, even Rock en Seine.

Tame impala would be 2nd/3rd top. Theyre big enough in the US and europe that they'd command a fee which would need them to be right near the top. Its probably why they didnt get booked this year - too expensive in comparison to the tickets theyd shift

Bunkum. They're headlining the Big Top at Bestival and not particularly high up at European festivals either. They subbed at Coachella but that's a completely different festival on another continent and we could spend all day pointing out the differences in placings.

You guys think The Prodigy will still be around this time next year? I can't remember where they're playing this year it's just T and IoW isn't it?

They were sounded great at Ally Pally tonight, their stuff from the new album seemed to go down well too, just how popular are they these days? Potential headliners?

They'll still be around next summer I'm sure. My guess is an arena tour this winter & a load of Euro festivals again next summer with R&L getting them as a UK exclusive. I'd say still sub tbh but they could headline. My guess is they'd be put below the weakest of the 3 headliners (Foals probs imo) & maybe even, dare I say it co headline with them.

[DomDom1984]

I can't see The Prodigy playing behind Foals. If anything, the vice versa would make more sense to me. Or the co-headline like you mention.

It'd be shocking if that happened but I can't see The Prodigy as R&L headliners. I don't see this album doing anything for them to take them from a sub to headline there. As I said the other day, I think T needed to give them a headline, somewhere where it seems they are very much appreciated for them to have to be booked for a headline spot next year.

I think it could go either way with R&L sub or V Fest 2nd stage, part of me thinks that Disclosure will take the sub spot that they would. I also expect a Glastonbury Other Stage headline spot.

[DomDom1984]

I see what you're saying, and I don't see The Prodigy headlining, but I can see it more than I can see them playing behind Foals.

[dentalplan]

I don't buy into this thing whereby 'weak' headliners get 'strong' subs. Doesn't that just raise more questions? Has it happened before?

[Gucci Piggy]

Yeah Blink got Macklemore.

[thewayiam]

I think if The Prodigy get asked to sub the Foals itit'll be a straight out no. The last time they subbed, the headline band were massively bigger than them.

To quote on dental, now the price for a day is down they don't have to worry so much for a 'strong sub'. The difference with topping V 2nd stage is, it doesn't matter to them who they'd be under as much as sub equivalent. But as I've said, if Foals headline next year it's because they just want them to, the band do so it's agreed, I don't think they'll be big enough on any scale to actually do it. It took Biffy a while to get there, had to change their sound and they needed more tHan one set of big dates.

[stevieg1993]

Thing is with foals and biffy at the moment that if biffy have another big album I can see them doing gigs like Hyde park or Milton Keynes maybe even a cheeky night at Wembley stadium unlike foals who I think would struggle sell an arena tour but could be surprised. With prodigy think r\l will be fighting download for them. Unless they announce this is there last album and tour I can't see prodigy headlining

Woahhhh hang on. I've never said that the lineup will change now they've taken a bit off day ticket prices. In fact I strongly disagree with that.

[Gucci Piggy]

I think his "to quote on" thing meant he wanted to quote your post (about strong subs) and what he said afterwards was a response to it.

[thewayiam]

Yeah Will is right dude. I meant quoting from you about the strong subs, I think they'll feel the need to do it less with a cheaper ticket.

Also last night I had a dream and apparently Yellow started a solo career in music and he was trying to look like Leonard Cohen in the advert that I saw and I just remember laughing my ass and trying to send you it all on Snapchat but every time I tried to take a photo it was blurry and you could make out his name so I left it (this was also after I met Josh Homme), so I thought I let you guys know now

Also on that note Yellow to headline R&L 2016
