I know Leeds/Reading has changed demographic over the years but imagine thinking that RATM weren't a great headliner option ffs

While I don’t personally share this sentiment, a lot of people I know going to Leeds were huge on Joe McElderry winning Christmas number one... maybe that’s got something to do with it?

 

more or less likely guys???

I highly doubt there are more than 5 people on earth who have a grudge against a band who unwittingly mugged off a karaoke singer over a decade ago

haha fair enough. I'm from Bradford and we're still raging about Gareth Gates' phone lines being blocked.

Literally nothing brings the Local community together like an ITV Talent show

Generally how far in advance is a headliner booked does anyone know and if in artist is touring how far in advance do they book them shows what are the chances of inactive artists and bands headlining.

from what goes on, it seems to be the case that they can be booked perhaps as much as a year before they're announced, but also sometimes just a few days. It seems to depend on how well the booking process goes, whether they get their targets, whether they say yes straight away or keep them dangling - and then sometimes back out, etc, etc, etc.

I can't bear another 4 pages of this thread at this point let alone another 400.

Announcement ASAP please.

[Jericode]

Foals headlining Kendal, so if they're playing they definitely aren't topping the bill here.

[lharris92]

They are heading into Sonisphere territory at this rate.... Queen and Adam Lambert to headline.... or not 😉

 

P.s. is there a shortage of portaloos this year?

[bradburyjames]

Why do Foals seem to be accepting smaller slots than what they arguably deserve, surely they should be pushing to headline the likes of TRNSMT and R&L

Maybe just not been offered the slots at these festivals? Which is a shame because they definitely deserve to be headlining them, not Kendall Calling ffs

its most likely because they have toured the double album so heavily- they have played to like 200,000 people already with it in the UK - shows are selling out but 10k or so is very different to 90k

One more, they went a bit overboard on that video and as much as I love them, a 13 minute video to announce a tour is a bit far imo

Thats it, no more MCR from me till they’re announced😜😜 joking sorry 

[Andre91]

They’re not fucking playing.
