DMCJ2 Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Based on what I’ve seen on Twitter it looks like some people will still believe MCR will play until the line ups confirmed. is it still looking like Travis and RHCP as the other 2?

R&L twitter always get disappointed with the lineup because they don’t drop their predictions even when there is strong evidence that bands haven’t been booked. See for example Arctic Monkeys every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2011 their headline set had quite a small crowd. I was there. Was it a small crowd? I was also there but towards the front (watching my all time favourite reading/leeds performance) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukecork Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Quick one on MCR they played a 6.3k venue at $170 a ticket, it sold out in four mins. £84 for a 65k venue will be interesting, would like to know how quick that'll sell out.

Hopefully fast enough for you lot to shut up about MCR already. Not been on in ages, they have announce the MK date and you are still going on about it. Its a fucking R&L chat ffs. Not being funny but its well annoying seeing MCR every comment and nothing to do with R&L. Just created a MCR chat already. Or rename this one. Obviously gonna get backlash from this comment but im sure there are others thinking the same thing. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lharris92 Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Can't you re-speculate the last 60 pages again? That normally keeps the thread going.... although only 200 pages? pfft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least its relevant towards the 2020 line up. Talking about the MK MCR show for the last fucking decade isnt. MCR are not going to be at R&L and if you had a slight bit of hope then its all gone now. Just create a new chat about the MCR show if you're so desperate to talk about it every second of the day. 3 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theesundayroast Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Do understand it must be a bit annoying if you're not interested in MCR. At the same time, we'd be on about page 3 if there was only talk about credible R&L info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we were to the side of the screen/viewing platform and had plenty of space. definitely was the smallest headliner crowd of the weekend - Muse was big, and I assume Pulp/Strokes was too - only saw a part of their sets from what I remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jericode Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Should we just all completely leave the thread alone then until there's some actual news? I for one can't wait for MCR and Fall Out Boy to headline the second main stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of us just don’t want to face the fact that our headliners are probs Biffy, Travis, Liam Gallagher, Courteeners, BMTH — and we would love to dream of who else could be there. I know that many Reading attendees will be miffed at the fact that both Rage and MCR are on the market and R&L got none of them. Also that Arctic Monkeys aren’t headlining again 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
