Lineup 2018

[KyKyHunt]

I've defended this festival a lot over the years and allowed for its transitioning and broadening of line ups but fuck me, that is next level dogshit.

Can't imagine being at Leeds having to end your weekend with Panic! at the Disco. Not that I can imagine anyone buying a weekend ticket.

Oh Jesus I didn't even think of this. Hopefully it's like FOB where they subbed both sites.

[Paulmcm1998]

Panic at the disco coheadlining with the biggest act of the weekend is the icing on the cake

[mylesharrison]

wait is post Malone headlining ????? WITH 1 ALBUM

What happened then? I can only guess that someone big dropped out late on?

 

Arctic Monkeys were supposed to headline the Sunday but bailed at the last minute 

[kev1664]

I' be surprised if that manages to sell out.

What have you become reading and Leeds. My first year was 08, Rage, killers and Metallica... and now this. Wow. 

[ToffeePopcorn]

I'm genuinely so gutted, never seen anything like this, feels like indie/rock has taken a bit of a backseat while they prioritise rap/pop-punk

[lharris92]

I'm feeding off the outrage. This is beautiful.

 

And also beyond laughable.

[TOMHAMPTON]

they've really fucked it by having neither Arctics OR Foos

[Mouseboy11]

hahahaha Dudey Rhino fuming at me calling him a melt

[Dan Wilcox]

Don't know if he could be announced later but Travis Scott was part of the info given to me, so don't think he's dropped out. Vaccines too. 

 

EDIT: In fact the lack of Vaccines is the most disappointing part for me, knowing how shit it already was.

Dua Lipa won't clash with Kendrick and whilst I assume you're right on Skepta surely there'll be as many people wanting to see him as KoL at R&L in 2018. That'll be dangerous.

[queenie69]

I feel like this is a funny dream and I haven’t woken up to check my phone yet. How the hell are panic @ the disco big enough to headline R&L? Please tell me there HAS to be more to come :((((((((

[Dukey]

That lineup is not good.

 

There's enough to buy my ticket, just. But, Fall Out Boy back after 2 years smacks of desperation, and Panic co-headlining with arguably the stand out headliner is laughable. 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA incredible. They didn't even get 30STM.

I'm holding off buying a day ticket in case I can get a weekend at under half price.

Dua third down on the main then, with Sigrid headlining the NME?

 

This is all on the assumption there are no more “big 4” slots to be announced, which I’m not sure is the case or not.

Would you be able to post whoever else you know  ? 

Can’t believe you’re th bringer of bad news once again (I mean that in the nicest way possible, I assure you  )

So true. That is a big mistake. That tent is gonna be rammed.
