I'm glad you realise this is something forum users that like and want it have created themselves as anyone official hasn't said anything past being a future option.

Come on give foals a chance when yes when they headline next year. As their is a massive short of new headliners. 

[JSmurphy]

Wasn't sure whether to post this in this thread of Lineup 2016 because I guess it could be relevant to both threads, nevertheless, do you think too much significance is placed upon the size of a R&L headliners? I'm not talking about significance to us, the efests community, as it's pretty evident most of us get at least some enjoyment about predicting who'll play and in what slot, but to the average ticket-buying consumer. 

 

Got talking to plenty of strangers across the weekend who had absolutely no idea who was headlining, but had their must see acts across the weekend. The point kind of got drilled into me on the final night as I went for a wonder  through the arena as Libertines were playing. I saw plenty of people scattered all over the arena and the NME, Dance and Lock Up tents were all completely rammed.. as was the campsites! I was shocked just how many people were already back at camp getting fucked up.

 

Not sure if my point is coming across to well here and I want to try to be as clear as possible.. but after reading through the content of the thread I've got to ask, if Foals were to headline and be, as some of called it, 'the worst headliner in recent years'.. so what? A strong under card coupled with a variety of strong bookings across other stages seems to be forgotten when considering what sells tickets.

Ignore Gaz, he's not representative

[tyranicide]

I don't think we are putting too much significance on the size of the headliners and the lineup. Reading took longer to sell out than previous years and Leeds supposedly had a poor turn out. I know people who sold their tickets after that lineup came out because they thought it was weak. Yes there are a lot of people who just go anyway to get fucked up but I think if the headliners got smaller and smaller that Reading would stop selling out.

I don't know if I'm putting my point across well but its the headliners that draw people in - if they headliners get smaller they would need to reduce the ticket price or people will stop coming.

This thread is dutty

[mrtourette]

The worst thing about this discussion is that even though most people are playing devil's advocate or discussing the silliness of trying to use some formula to predict headliners Gazza has never got that and will still crow about he was right and everyone else was wrong if Foals aren't headlining next year.

[lightning1000]

Foals on jools holland tonight

[oneoftherest]

I honestly don't see Foals headlining R+L next year, there is no set formula but to be honest you can sorta tell when someone is there and I just don't think they are yet, solid sub in my mind, for a while I was trying to convince myself they were big enough due to the hype on here.

Not due to any lack of acholades but just because in my mind I can't see it. Debating acholades is stupid,

Most headliners have achieved different levels of success, there's no set thing you have to have done, if every band who did arenas headlined then All Time Low would be headlining which would be horrific

Acholades

[oneoftherest]

Lol I'll probably just go ahead and learn how to spell

[kingcrawler]

So Glasgow, Manchester, London, Birmingham and Leeds on the arena tour in February. Bit of a gap around London so I can see them doing two nights there.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Why is it that Rod Stewart plays stadiums while Everything Everything are the support act for a short Foals arena tour. No justice in the world.

[Gucci Piggy]

Sorry Gazza I think it's now evident you are a random ramble

[LondonTom]

Cause they are ok but overall a bit hit and miss.

 

Wembley is so shit, and so is it being a tuesday! Might give it a miss and went to see what festivals they are at
