Would be a brilliant main stage that.

Give me Limp Bizkit fourth down and I’m sorted.

I loved that year, the Friday was so good alone the rest of the weekend just felt like a bonus and one big party but felt really bad for the Slipknot camp next to us in Yellow, Buzzing on the Wednesday only to hear very quickly they cancelled their performances.

I remember a few Slipknot fans taking their anger out on poor ol' BMTH who opened up the mainstage as a last minute thing on that Sunday. Was raining cats and dogs that morning as well!

My only regret from that weekend was on the Saturday where I missed out on Justice in the NME tent, my mates dragged me to see Editors on the mainstage instead...*holds head in hands*  

You're spot on about the Friday night though, everything else that followed did feel like a bonus! I remember The Subways KILLING it during the early stages of the Saturday on the mainstage. Foals in the NME tent pretty much doing the whole of 'Antidotes' was all kinds of greatness looking back on it also, and then The Raconteurs/Bloc Party/The Killers following that...what a time to be alive. Such a good year...

They are actually playing European festies in August.

[devilman]

Might have to end an absence of 3 years for RATM. They were brilliant the last twice I saw them.

[BeddingatReading]

Sorry to sound ignorant but why would R&L have Stormzy just before his UK tour, surely that would just take sales away from his own tour?

[Tom Connolly]

@Dan Wilcox you gave us the announcement last yearrrrrrr

[ob123]

After tomorrow we then have the fun of everyone trying to guess the secret set. Ah I love festival season 

[Sam Y]

@Dan Wilcox gonna be in an exam when the rest of the line up comes out. Will Biffy or Sam Fender be playing. 

[SteventheG]

Imagine the festival went fully guitar based

So it appears the entire indie and rock fraternity can now be divided into 'cex workers' and 'dark fruits twitter' 😄

Since when was "CEX workers" a description?

Especially given I'm pretty sure I've heard poppier stuff when in there in the past.

Most of his tour has sold out (apart from a few dates up north) The RATM announcement and Stormzy would make sense as to why they've waited to announce this.

[madmaninabox]

When do day tickets normally go.on sale?

 

Also something like 

 

Limp Bizkit - Run the Jewels - Public Enemy - RATM

 

Would be amazing.

I think its just gen z'ers way of putting a group of people in their 20s together. 

[ob123]

Guys Dan gave us the announcement first time around. Stormzy - LG - RATM. 
I’m right aren’t I @Dan Wilcox

[robillustrates]

To be fair to Reading, that's three huge acts, two UK based, I don't really see why LG needs to headline personally but it's their choice and he will have his big crowd.

[LG X]

500 pages by midnight not happening unles there’s a big spam, 450 is realistic

CEX workers is brilliant. Imagine how many copies of Courteeners St Jude I could buy if did work there, though. 

So true. Went to get a job there when I was 16 and the first thing the manager did on my ‘trial day’ was plug his phone in and play Guerilla Radio. 

[Stuielooie]

Is this too harsh?

Dan can tell you if Sam Fender is on the line up but no one has a clue if he’s actually gonna be playing

Limp Bizkit would be a madness. 

Limp Bizkit > IDLES > Run The Jewels > RATM
