Korn it is then... nobody predicted them!

Korn under Eminem would be brilliant for me

I think a few people even said there would be no chance they'd be booked nowadays

So we have gone from one of the worst announcements to one of the best, hope they get a high slot.

[JSmurphy]

fucking sweet.. I remember wishing KoRn would appear after I saw them at Wembley last month, great booking!

[callum97]

If they headlining the NME same day as Eminem i will be so pissed off as they are the two acts i really want to see

Korn against Eminem would be better for me! 

[Gozpot]

Guessing they'll be 3rd top on Main Stage, could be 4th too but as they got their own announcement I assume they'll be 3rd.

RKO(N) outta nowhere, that. Bit of a curveball - surely too big for Lock Up/Pit?

Really hoping for 3rd, so many people on twitter are like 'who the hell are korn' 

[Buko]

I have no doubt they'll headline the NME with flume or Fatboy Slim doing a closing set after. Similar to limp bizkit in 15.

Too big and if they were Daniel P Carter would have announced it on Sunday.

They're way too big for the Lock Up/Pit

[losing44]

Eminem
Pendulum
Korn 

 

Would be great for me!

yeah KORN are huge

[Andre91]

Fucking fantastic news! They were on killer form on the tour with Bizkit in December. I'm guessing they will be headlining the NME, hopefully with JEW under them. Fucking made up.

would be over the moon with that 

[losing44]

Presumably they will be advertised as a uk exclusive too? 

[JSmurphy]

Flume, Fat Boy Slim, Bastille & Korn... I don't expect all the NME headliners to be announced this early, could FBS headline Dance Stage? Or a closing set from him or flume, with the other three as headliners? Korn subbing Muse?

Would love to see Korn sub muse but can't see reading putting them that high up. Really hope they don't clash with Eminem as NME headliners on the saturday

Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm Just trying to picture a stereotypical Kasabian and Eminem crowd going for them on the main stage though.  NME tent doesn't feel like it'd do em justice. 

[Hart Attack]

Shit just got real, people!

 

ARE YOU READYYYYY?

[callum97]

I just hope they give them a bigger slot than what 5FDP were given last year, they atleast deserve 3rd down

[Obiginnaw]

possibility of limp bizkit returning after that announcement ?
