I think Tyler, The Creator is still banned form the UK, Circa Waves wouldn’t come back the very next year a slot lower, Pixies would headline NME if they were booked, I think Broco would probably play main stage, HAIM would no way play FR. If they were back they’d probably play 3rd main stage I’d say, Danny brown wouldn’t headline the 1Xtra 2 years in a row, Tempa T isn’t big enough to headline that stage and I’m baffled as to why bands like High Tyde, Haus, We were Giants, Jordan allen etc. Are on the 1Xtra. Basically you’ve got a lot of the acts that could be there pretty spot on, but definitely not in the right places. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not familiar with many 1Xtra acts, the last few rows I just kinda shoved whatever I could find on to try and fill it a bit while more rumours fall in. As for the others, good shout's, I'm just trying to compile the strongest rumours and wishlists into one poster and see how far off I am when it gets released tbh.

Vaccines are subbing community festival, so probably a slot too high and won't play. Tenascious D would be a sub, Eagles of Death Metal wouldn't play anywhere near that low down. Neither would HAIM (doubt they'll be back) or we Are Scientists. Unlikely Don Broco would be in the pit two years in a row. Alt-J and Travis likely too big for those NME slots. Looks good tho, could definitely see Galantis headlining the Dance stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 11 minutes ago, TheWaters said: @dentalplan been looking at a few acts playing European festivals around August and one band I would absolutely love to see would be Cancer, but again, I suppose they’re highly doubtful right? If they were to be booked I could see them mid to high FR or early NME even but probably wouldn’t be booked would they? Never heard of them. Google tells me they’re an 80’s death metal band. If that’s who you’re referring to then I wouldn’t be hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About ATDI i agree with everyone about how bad they are live, I will be spending the thursday at 2000 trees at the second stage then I'll defo watch the other 2 headliners im sure. The rest of todays 2000 trees announcement is perfect for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, THEY would take the slot. I just don't think R+L would ever offer it to them (in the same way I don't see why they'd offer Slaves a good slot ever again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing you didn't mean that the topline is all coheadliners sooooo: - Catfish won't do R+L as they are at APE which is an AEG event (and Live nation don't share acts with AEG very frequently) - Royal Blood are too big for that slot - YM@6 won't play R&L if they are playing Community and Download BMTH are waaaaaay too big for that slot - FLO idek what you are doing - Did you really put 21P under Stormzy - I may be slightly bevvd - Shikari wont play if they are doing 2000 trees - Gorillaz are exclusive to Boomtown - Jake Bugg wont be back any time soon - Everything Everything wont be back as they are playing that lincoln fest -Portugal. The Man seem to be doing early summer EU fests - I'm guessing Feed The Rhino is a Dudey meme in which case everything would make sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took band logos from Google/other sources, edited them in Photoshop to be completely black - the template I made myself with a mixture of source images from the Leeds website and the style guide. I can make a plain version if anyone is interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
