That's my hope, they were excellent in '14

and will be even better this time! Crooked Teeth was my album of 2017!

Struggling to believe they have Fall Out Boy headlining outright buy Kendrick is only a co-headliner

[j.gibbard]

Was hoping this would be my first year at Reading, looking very unlikely now with this lineup. Very disappointed. Love me some Kendrick but wouldn't pay £220 to go to the whole festival. Sadly, the AM day for TRNSMT is sold out as well. Ah well.

Is this 2 main stage thing still an actual possibility then or is it just wishful thinking to make up for the 3 out of 4 poor headliners? 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Good on FR for ignoring the allegations against NBT, too. Nothing like reading the room.

Yeah the two main stage thing is done. If there were two main stages, there wouldn't have been more bona fide headliners; it'd be PATD calibre headliners.

I think next announcement they will announce royal blood co headline with fob

They've been announced for everything though. Coachella, Trnsmt, Benicassim...

Whats happened with NBT???

Wow, so I was very wrong with my prediction. Sorry. What a hilariously terrible line-up this is. They must have REALLY, REALLY struggled to book headliners. 

[SomeoneListeningIn]

The acts that would convince me to get a ticket are Post, Kendrick, Dua Lipa, Sigrid, Brockhampton & Skepta.

I'd probs go see Wolf Alice, The Magic Gang, Pale Waves, Kings of Leon, The Wombats, AJ Tracey & Nadia Rose too if I was there, although I'm not too arsed about any of them either.

Definitely looking like a day ticket for Sunday at Leeds for me. I volunteered last year, but I wouldn't even wanna do that this year to avoid potentially having to work over the very few acts I wanna see.

Do you still believe that Florence & AM were initially meant to be booked?

[williamxturner]

Any idea of when we'd be expecting day tickets?

I like the look of: Kendrick, Wolf Alice, NBT, post, Creeper, dream wife, sum 41, brockhampton, skepta

 

overall very disappointed though, tragic headliners. And why are Panic co headlining with the biggest headliner?

500 here we come!!! Ooooooo!!! Xxxx

[Dukey]

The meltdown on Twitter is making my day at work however.

[MIchael_scarn]

Maybe they realised the lineup was gonna be so bad that they released it this late after most of the other ones sold out as well as knowing there's no glato and V, leaving punters with only R+L out of the other major festivals left. 10 greatest festival conspiracy theories confirmed?

That's what I don't get, Panic co headlining with one of the biggest artists in the world currently is baffling.

Starting to think we may never see V festival (or whatever it was going to be) return

I feel like I'd enjoy it much more if I wasn't so let down myself. Some of it is genuinely gold though, like the people who had convinced themselves that it would be an Oasis reunion oh lord
