Nah cos 'Out' isn't a connective word, which might be the rule I think.

So would And Also The Trees be aatT?

Nope. You always capitalise the first word. So AatT would be the correct form

(I think so, I'm shit at grammar)

So 'The The' would just be tt?

Edit: Ahh seeing the post above it'd be Tt. Much better.

So Paramore would just be P?

[R Shah]

Imagine dragons start their UK tour just after Brits Week and Kendrick will have just finished his tour then so I think if they're all headlining Brits Week would be the ideal announcement time. For foos it doesn't really matter when they're announced tbh.

[R Shah]

Just a question - why do people all keep predicting fall out boy? Did someone give us info that fall out boy had been booked? Cos I can't see why they'd be booked cos they only co headlined 2 years ago and no co headliner or sub returns that soon

True, I was just putting the connectives rule to the test. Would Bert On Beats Is Bob Meanwhile be BoBiBm?

I was also thinking about the 2 stages and reading field is no where near big enough :/ If they add another big stage next to the main, we will be standing next to the fucking toilets ahha!!! No room imo and cant see it happening! Unless they change the whole layout of the tents and field and cant see this happening

Yeah Dan, the guys who had the two stage info, said they've been booked.

[justanothername]

Here's the real question. What about bands like iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook

Is it just I? Or is it i since they don't capitalise the start, or is it iwhaciyb but they stylise it's as one word anyway. I NEED ANSWERS

I really hope the headliners are Slipknot, Blink-182 and a Catfish & the Bottlemen / Tame Impala coheadline, making 300+ pages of discussion pointless.

[justanothername]

Muse / BearFur / Cowboy Mess

Heard it here first 

[KingPin]

Sorry for not paying attention to the thread, but why do you all think that 2 mainstages is going to be a thing? And where on earth are they going to put them at each site? :/

[Alfie Clayton]

Just had a thought maybe by there being no glasto mean R+L are 100% they will sell more tickets and quicker so that means they would be more open to spending a larger budget on acts as they would be more certain that they would not make a loss... So maybe foos and arctics could be true!? and also I mean both muse and Eminem are pretty huge acts!!! but yeah lets see xxx

I don't think they will, I think the idea of it is that it means you can have one act setting up whist another plays on the opposite stage

 

So for example

 

16:00-16:45 - Stage 1 third down

17:00-17:45 - Stage 2 third down

18:00-18:45 - Stage 1 sub

19:00-19:45: FOB on Stage 1

20:00-21:15: BMTH on Stage 2

21:30-23:00: Foo Fighters on Stage 1

I think the fact they're guaranteed to sell out Reading atleast + no Glasto boosting tickets would probably mean they'd try to spend less, Alf. It'd be a bit silly spending way more than they have to on acts, when they'll deffo shift tickets anyway. Who knows though, we still could get both Foos and AM but I just highly doubt it.

I'm still staying at Stage 1...

Yeah but it would be Bert on Beats is Bob. You don't just de-capitalise them for the abbreviation.

We get it, you like obscure emo bands that no one likes or has heard of.
