Second Announcement Prediction


JSmurphy

Recommended Posts

So R&L have confirmed that their second announcement for this years festival is next week. Thought it'd be nice to continue this years Prediction Game. For those interested, points (as per correct prediction) stand at: 

3 Points: foolee, justanothername and Will-2609
2 Points: Andre91, Foals/Disclosure, Gozpot, JonSnow, The Placid Casual
1 Point: DMCJ2, JSmurphy, Odessa, OscarEB, Superunknown and Whittick

Of course anyone who didn't get a chance to post last time can make a prediction now. Second announcements usually give a few more acts than the first, so to give a general idea second announcements in previous years consisted of: 

2015: Foals, Disclosure, Imagine Dragons, Jack Ü, Two Door Cinema Club, Fetty Wap, Parkway Drive, Crystal Castless, Oliver Heldens, Hannah Wants, Nothing But Thieves, The Internet
2014: Arctic Monkeys, You Me At Six, Royal Blood, The 1975, The Courteeners, SBTRKT, Warpaint, Architects, Issues, Hozier, Netsky, Annie Mac, Pusha T, Krept & Konan

So predict 13 acts for R&L 2017. Don't worry about stages / placements since we won't know those till the third announcement. Last updates can be before midnight the night before the announcement, i.e. if the announcement Friday morning, all updates by 23:59 on Thursday. 

Kasabian, Skepta, You Me At Six, Jungle, Blossoms, Rag'n'Bone Man, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, Billy Talent, Rise Against, Moose Blood, Gesaffelstein, Vince Staples, letlive.

A brave man predicts them...but I like. Add RTJ and I'd like that announcement, only for them mind but you won't like everything.

Seems realistic enough. I really do want to go back some day but there's been hardly anything to get me there the last couple of years and I reckon this year will be the same

Yeah same here. I mean, I'm still into a lot of the stuff that R+L represents and there are usually 20+ smallfry acts that I'd like to see which gets me entertaining the thought of a day ticket, but then the main stage headliners and subs and NME headliners are a complete miss. So if I went I'd essentially be forking out £70 for nine sets all clocking in at 25-50 minutes and no real sorta 'selling point' acts. Ah well, maybe one day.

Shikari are surely far too popular for the pit? They're headlining Slam Dunk this year.

Assumed they'd be headlining it, I guess they could be mainstage but assumed the heavier style would suit the pit better. I guess FFDP pulled off the main stage last year so who knows?

Shikari played 3rd/4th down on main stage in 2014, they are NME headline material.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
