The current R+L poster is what teenagers are listening to.

The current Glasto poster is what grans think teenagers are listening to.

Not sure if you’re being slightly sarcastic but I think you’re spot on

Out of nothing more than curiosity, has that been compiled by yourself over the years or was it acquired through some sort of data bank?

compiled ourselves, from bands on the line-ups of UK festivals, plus plenty around the world too.

It's quite common for smaller festies to have bands not in the database (which then get added), very unusual for a first announcement for something the size of R/L.

I'm two years too old to be a teenager and I'm about as lost as everyone in here.

Well yes you have an Interpol username and picture. Not exactly a Stefflon Don username with a pic of the dude from Bowling For Soup.

eFests: proud sponsors of slapping down newcomers with opinions.

Seriously, what the hell has happened here? Even Russy observed the unwritten rules of going light on new posters and not calling people c**ts until they'd been a round a bit.

Can we pin this comment or something? Maybe it's the fallow year making people grumpy but you're spot on, and the danger is it could scare off new users. There's a line between rude and friendly micky taking. 

I've been thinking this of late. I'd pinned it down to the T-Day agro not dissipating, but maybe it's actually tied in somehow to Russy's conspicuous absence. Despite a penchant for dishing out the c-word, he was somehow holding the e-fest cosmos together.

Why's that Yungblud bloke popping up everywhere now? I saw he was the only other act on the Muse day at Rock Werchter and then remembered he's that weird kid from Donny. Wish I was the guy from Donny who's the only act on Muse day at Rock Werchter.

And Bang Bang Romeo are there, too. We're on the fucking map, boys.

Donny takeover.

BearFur next year.

 Did many on here witness that set, out of interest?

Was incredible.

Didn’t Post Malone play this year? What the fuck?

Is he ok? Did he get a ticket?

Thought the Stormzy announcement would draw him out to offer his take but he has been conspicuous by his absence.

Every year that yellow poster comes out and every year I’ve heard of fewer and fewer names on it.

Who the hell are half these people?

Glad I'm not the only one. I spent my breakfast looking up "Juice Wrld" on my phone. I thought it was like Cadbury World but for Tropicana.

[Sasperella]

Campelphat is one of the worst band names I have ever encountered. 

Also, if the boneroo poster was a bit early seeing as its not till June, what are R+L doing releasing this 9 months before? It's not like its anything to shout about.... (Although, I wouldn't mind seeing The Distillers. Do they count as a guilty pleasure?)

High up the second stage at Pukkelpop this year. Belgians love him.

He is The Strokes for the modern age.

I don't remember seeing anything about him getting a ticket or not. Hopefully he just has better things to do with his time now ?

Surely teens aren't still listening to Bowling for fucking Soup

They are mate. Go to a Bowling for Soup gig and you’ll be the only one not doing the shoot dance.

How far away are we from Reading's first Youtuber headliner? I reckon we'll see Pewdiepie or Jake Paul do it by 2025.
