Would the idea of them and BMTH subbing Liam and Rage respectively be a little too strong to be true?

Liam is subbing them at another fest so I could see them co-headlining with Liam perhaps but I doubt they’d accept anything less. BMTH maybe yeah

They've subbed UK fests before and didn't even headline the second stage at TITP so they've shown they've been willing to step down in the past.

[BeddingatReading]

Why do people think Liam may Co headline? Why would they just announce one “headliner” who isn’t even doing it outright and nobody else? This isn’t me knocking anyone’s predictions btw just curious.

Likelihood of Loathe, maybe in the pit?

New album is banging and really has a bit of everything.

I fucking hope so I Let It In is Amazing. They are playing download but i don't think that makes an appearance from them any less likely

In that case yeah I think they might be under LG

I don’t tbh I was in the camp that said he can defo do it outright but the lineup they’re both on just made me think maybe they’re on for another fest together

[ob123]

I can’t see there not being a co-headliner this year. But I also can’t see it being anyone else apart from LG. Could be wrong

entirely depends who we get

i wouldn’t say LG’s big enough for a solo headliner slot, but i also know what LG is like. a pain in the ass. 

i can’t speak for anyone else because we don’t know the lineup yet. dan could be bullshitting 100% and we’ll end up with coldplay and paul mccartney but i know that wouldn’t happen lmfao

Big things destined for them I think.

So forward thinking for just their second album.

Rage is a day ticket for me if ever I saw one. Would prepare for shin splints due to an hour and a half of constant bouncing

17-year-old me was knackered by the Finsbury Park Rage Against the X Factor gig in 2010. I dread to think what aches and pains 27 year old me would break out in.

How do you unquote 

[CG31]

If you add the Strokes co headlining and closing with LG at Reading to Stormzy and RATM that I fucking awesome and the best possible scenario 

[Quorn]

When do we think we’re looking at for the announcement? Will they wait until friday or get it out sooner?

Why are so many people sure BMTH are headlining?

 

Legit no idea why I have this quoted oops, but i'm hoping for Monday/Tuesday

I don't doubt the info, I'm just struggling with Stormzy headlining with him being on tour one week after the fest (a tour that hasn't completely sold out) ... But let's see the undercard, no doubt LG and Stormzy were relatively cheap. 

[rfc_478]

The Strokes have got to be in with a shout, given that they’re around Europe in August. I’d imagine they’ll be doing something in the UK, if not RnL then their own shows

IF they've got RATM, a lot of the headliner budget will have gone on that and maybe Stormzy was cheaper than usual due to his tour being so close. Plus, there could be a smaller pool to choose from at the end of August, especially with a smaller budget.

Enjoy man! I’m seeing them both next Saturday in London. 

You’re in for a treat, both bands were amazing (as were Mannequin Pussy)

we shouldn’t write stormzy off considering this is how well his tour has sold in advance...

As much as I'd love that I'm not sure where they'd fit.

Have you heard their new tune?

Plenary of places they could play but most likely is high up FR tent.

Thanks for tip off on new tune, wasn’t aware of that.

Saw them about a year ago in the Fiddlers Bar in Bristol, they are a talented bunch, especially the drummer.

[Tom Connolly]

not doing that great up north, leeds would probably eliminate the chance of these selling out

LG sells up north (and probably south too tbh), Stromzy sells better down south. Works quite well & even better with a band like RATM 100% playing the other night to please all (I'm convincing myself if I'm positive I'll get a positive outcome...)
