Is everyone ignoring the fact I’ve heard something that suggests there are three headliners and not four?

Can't speak for everyone else but I was.

[R Shah]

Stormzy, Arctic Monkeys, Slipknot with BMTH subbing Slipknot

[R Shah]

Actually, just seen that Stormzy has put on his website "preorder for early access to tour tickets"

Perhaps he has a big UK arena tour planned and won't do R+L 2020??

[Andre91]

It’s not going to be MCR  

Catfish will never headline. They’re going to go the same way as The Vaccines and stagnate. 

It’ll BMTH, The Strokes, Stormzy & Travis Scott. 

[charlierc]

Catfish have got to a pretty high enough level for a band that invite almost as much dislike as actual willingness to go and watch, but I don't think they've got enough to make the crossover from arena level to festival. They seem to be missing one or two big hit songs or proof they can diversify their output and create more interesting crossover songs imo.

Reading just put a talent survey on their instagram story. Leaving a bit late although I think we had one before?

EDIT: there was also a fairly short headliners list which is interesting: biffy, strokes, AM, foals, kanye, blink, slipknot, travis scott, muse, asap rocky, dua lipa, mcr, billie, lg, gambino, frank ocean, stormzy, kendrick, tyler, ratm, tame (which can't happen), bmth, killers, catfish and cardi b

Seems interesting to me as its not just a default list like many surveys?

I presume a lot of people will tick Arctic Monkeys and be hopeful that's the option given they're supposedly locked up somewhere poring over some new material. Whether they bring anything released before 2009 is another question. I personally like the idea of AM with Strokes subbing but that's pretty unrealistic.

Cardi B is a bit random, though such is the changing demographic that I imagine she'd go down pretty well.

[Matt42]

I reckon BMTH are subbing and the three headliners are Stromzy, The Strokes and Travis Scott. 

[R Shah]

Am I just getting too hopeful but surely the fact that Slipknot are in Spain in August makes them like considerably likely?

The fact they are putting out this survey is worrying. The last time they just threw up a survey this late was in 2017 followed by the 2018 headliners only been revealed in March i think it was an it was extrmely weak. I hope im wrong

this is an absolute dream, give BMTH a longer sub slot (1hr+) and this would be perfect

[moonage505]

the Arctic monkeys are definitely active again in some capacity according to a guy who is usually very accurate with his info, whether they'll be active enough for a festival slot is unlikely imo though.

Yeah, I don't think they did themselves much favors covering about 4 of the medium festivals in one year, they aren't as gone as The Vaccines though and they are booked for a slot this year that an act did this year while subbing Glastonbury so they aren't dead yet.

The Kooks are announced for end July at Spain (Fib Festival). They were in 2018 I think, could they come ?

Ill take your word but i fucking hope not... Dont get me wrong, I like the names but for them three to be the main acts across the weekend, that would be a massive disappointment after having Foos, 21P, Post and 1975 this year. 

Edit: the guy above just shut you down jeez

Double Edit: I checked myself and his correct.
