Friday Headliner

[llyrios]

I have a feeling Travis Scott may pull out, he’s already pulled out of a festival he was due to headline and the Reading & Leeds dates have been removed from his tour on his site. So, who do you think they could replace him with last minute? Who could live up to that expectation, an artist of that size?

 

Or is Stormzy just going to come out and dissapoint everyone?

 

What do you think?

[Vik Vinegar]

If true, just put Bring Me on then.

I’ve heard they’ll be a secret set

[Jericode]

Yeah, that's why he's saying just move them to the sub slot instead. Avoids the horrible clash they seem to have with Creeper too so it's a win for everyone.

Royal blood.

Seeing how Travis Scott isn’t headlining there would be no need for another headliner to ‘step in’. Fall Out Boy are headlining that night. If he did pull out, I would expect them to bump Post Malone up to sub which is where he should be playing anyway.

They'd probably just bump everyone else up a slot. Wow Fall Out Boy subbed by The Kooks in 2018, what a festival.

Apparently he pulled out Pukkelpop because of the MTV Awards on Monday.  Perhaps he needs extra rehearsal time, that shouldn't affect R&L which comes after.

It's possible he's removed all festival dates from his website as he's announcing Astroworld tour dates.

Hope I'm not clutching at straws as I'm quite keen to see him.

At the moment he is still on the reading page

The only tour date that's on there is astroworld festival in USA.

He had better not! Travis, Kendrick & Skepta were the main reason I wanted to go...

Still waiting for my ticket absolutely hanging from boomtown last weekend haha, so stressed right now, it had better all work out..

I'd say this Is reasonable and what I'd like to believe lmao. My most anticipated act of the fest, I'd be incredibly upset if he pulled out.

As you say he's just announced Leg 1 of the Astroworld tour and there'll be more dates to come. Hopefully he just wants all attention on that.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

I reckon it'll be Fall Out Boy

[Stuielooie]

Only one of Travis Scotts upcoming 12/13 dates are on his website being his own tour.

 

Apparently hes pulled out of a festival due to performing the VMAs which also post malone is performing at.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Is anyone actually sure it was ever on his tour dates page to begin with?

Not sure, but it just seems like his whole marketing plan is to push his own festival

That's what I'm thinking lmao. Not all artists put festivals on their tour page. 

[LiamEP]

If he pulls out it’ll be the 2nd really big act festival republic have lost this year right before a festival. Wouldn’t look so great for them.

Except if BMTH were down to headline next year.

Just imagine. Didn't happen in 2006 yet will in 2018. The mind boggles.

It was there on his tour page 100% for at least a few weeks I checked and saw it there quite a few times. It had the two dates for Reading Festival & Leeds Festival but is no longer there.

Wouldn't look great for the festival in general. Like someone said, some people had mainly bought a ticket for Skepta and Travis.

Long shot but maybe he's taken off fests as they're all sold out? Maybe he didn't see the point in having them on his site if no one can buy tickets, so only has the Astroworld fest and his own dates to come.

Yeah also Travis pulled out when he was meant to headline the bbc r1 extra stage in 2016 I think it was..

I really hope so. It would suck so much if he pulled out
