I have a strange feeling we could see 2/3 of Bastille / The Wombats / Blossoms co headline on a dry year in a couple of years which would probably equally as dull despite the fact I actually enjoy two of them. I don’t think we’ll see the Wombats headline I think 2 Door/ Bastille and Royal Blood are the next ones to jump I might be biased because Blossoms are basically my favourite band but I’d absolutely love then to get w headline slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their last album sold very well and a number of songs with a lot of radio play, I could see R&L slotting them in as a cheap co head if their next album fares well. I'm 90% sure Royal Blood will off their next album as long as they maintain the momentum, their last big tour sold very quickly despite the massive arenas they were playing. I love Blossoms, one of my favorites too and the amount of money I've spent on their vinyl releases is scary. I can very much see R&L boosting them up to a headliner position as they obviously enjoy them although I think it would be one of the smallest and motionless headliner crowds in history. They don't seem to pull the crowds down south and to me have always suited mid/ small sized venues a lot better imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt they’ll play though I think the last thing they did was headline boardmasters all the way back in 2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some people don’t vibe with downtempo music at all. Alt J aren’t even downtempo I just think some people don’t like bands who don’t have flare anthems.

Yeah not sure, I’d just heard from a few people that they weren’t too interesting live but yeah it’s all subjective at the end of the day. Not sure if I can see them doing it but if they do I’d probably see them over most of the likely headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R Shah Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 Worst possible trio is probably Travis Scott, Fall Out Boy, Kings of Leon with something like Migos, Bastille & Alt-J subbing. God, 2018 was bad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Shah Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 On the other hand, best possible (realistic) headliners assuming every currently active act is available to tour? Rage Against The Machine, Foals/BMTH & The 1975 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
