Nah they wouldn’t repeat that. Perhaps they’re going for a late ‘special guest’ sort of announcement like they did with N*E*R*D last year. 

That would make more sense, not sure who could slot in there, or where they’d slot in. My best guess is between Juice WRLD and YMAS.

biggish hip hop act would be perfect for in between YM@6 and Wombats, Brockhampton would be nice but i can’t see it happening. KSI has just brought out an album, imagine the uproar with that ?

Delighted that Laura Jane Grace has been announced. Lead singer from Against Me! Incase anyone didn’t know.

I wonder who is being held back from The 1975’s day? 

Sam Fender? 

[Dukey]

Wouldn't be surprised if it's two of the acts from the Leeds Fest stage at Live at Leeds, best guess would be Sam Fender and Marsicans/Drenge.

I’m still telling myself it could happen

Couple of good announcements for me,Laura Jane Grace and Plague Vendor.

 Bit by bit the line up is starting to take shape for me, just could do with more on Saturday

I would love it, but I genuinely can’t see on the lineup where they’d squeeze in. The only place I could kind of see is between YM@6 and Juice WRLD, but even then I think fifth down is too low for them. They’re surely around third down main level now.

They're playing 5th down at Kendal this year.

It's a weird one, they're ridiculously low on the KC lineup, play bigger venues than most 3rd downs at Reading but being talked about as a fifth down.

It’s a bit like Lewis Capaldi really, he’s just sold out an arena tour, yet on the Truck Poster he’s on the same level as Kate Nash and Shame.

It's not at all like that. Capaldi has grown a lot since he was announced for Truck and whatever else. He will actually be getting huge slots at festivals next summer, Don Broco won't be.

It’s not the same at all. Lewis Capaldi has blown up in the last couple of months - his billing at Truck reflects the size he was when he was booked. Broco have been getting similar bookings across the board at mid-sized festivals this year.

Edit - snap

Just seen Vistas open for Circa Waves, would be a huge shame for them to not be here, one of the best new indie bands going

New names added including Leeds late night and alternative stage, plus return of the Logos on the poster. 

I think I’m just glad to see the Vertical poster back overall. 

Anyone know why Enter Shikari are still bottom of the main stage on the poster when it’s generally accepted (and listed on their site) that they are playing higher up after Mayday Parade?

I think it’s just to have their logo on there.

Their logo would still be on there if it was higher up.

It doesn’t really matter it’s just that on the poster they are in one position and on the ‘lineup’ part of the website they are in another but we seemed to have generally agreed that the position on the website is the correct one.

Going by the lineup page they are fifth/sixth down, so no, they wouldn’t have their logo on there. It’s definitely to draw attention to the fact that they’re playing twice in a day even though plenty of bands have done so in the past and not had that tag on the poster.

Any idea when or if Leeds usually sells out of weekend tickets? Mate wants to wait till end of May to get hers see. Is there any sort of warning given when they get low?

Doesn’t tend to sell out
