Fuzzy Afro Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Are Courteeners just going to sub every 2 years for eternity now then? I was thinking they’d pocket them for a co-headline slot in 2021 (closing Leeds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was R1 and main stage, so of course it’s going to be the popular, potentially less inspiring Once upon a time those stages were packed with inspiring bands year after year... before the dark times... before I got old 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamieaslee Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Also surely theyll leave big names out so people actually check the full announcement? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newjem Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 If it is RTJ > Migos > RATM I honestly hope Migos will cancel. Cardi B, I beg you... please don't let your husband cross the ocean 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting on IDLES, i also think theyll announce that LG is subbing with someone cos rage 100% wouldnt, and neither would stormzy cos he did glasto.

Nobody actually thinks his solo stuff is good. LG sold out Heaton park effectively on pre sale, people missed out on getting tickets. The entirety of Heaton Park by himself, in seconds. Meanwhile Parklife can’t sell out the same field with 100 acts and you can still get tickets to pretty much any stormzy show on his world tour.

Diamond24 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 I really like Two Door and Courteeners but they've both played Reading way too much in recent years. Bombay Bicycle Club, Vampire Weekend and Catfish would have been good indie alternatives to sub, that haven't played the festival in a while (arguably catfish are too big to sub though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormzy headlined Glastonbury in the same year Liam Gallagher subbed. Stormzy is miles bigger than Liam Gallagher. Not even comparable 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've loved to see Vampire Weekend as an indie act that's a bit different although it looks incredibly unlikely they'll be back in the UK until their next album cycle now.

Although maybe it’s because they’re everywhere else, and not ‘exclusive’ enough for a big slot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TG0000 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 If you dont think Liam Gallagher can headline your deluded, 2 number 1 albums and an entire selection of songs from one of the biggest bands the world has ever seen... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
