Nah they were like 3rd down R1 for this year I swear and are shrinking. Would be more like 3pm (well you’d like to think anyway). This new format is going to make the poster look so weak. ——— did tpd tv say they were playing all 5 headliners? As that means BMTH, Weeknd, Catfish, TDCC and Doja Cat? Surely not - just want to check though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like it’s replacing the R1 Stage, which seems more logistically straightforward at Leeds than Reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like that idea, not only from a logistics point of view where’s there’s not much space where the R1 was at Reading. But also the fact that there’ll then be immense clashes, if I had to decide between Dua Lipa and Bring Me I’d tear myself in half I think two stages alternating almost opposite each other. If you go to Reading this is what I think, remove R1, move FR tent to where R1 was, maybe slightly towards the main entrance. Shift dance round and have a main stage where Bar 2/ Dance Stage was. Other Main Stage where FR and the toilets were, then it’s a turn and run to the other stage and bars could run alongside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah like I said he did make a point of talking about acts playing at the same time and said that the second stage was being elevated to an equal main stage with the same production.

Have The Chemical Brothers headlined Reading before? As would I, that’s the mf dream and I don’t think so. I do think there’ll be a dance act tho. Surely this format is better to get in artists that may not go down well usually. Theoretically, there was lots who didn’t like Rage but if idk Dave was up against them on the other ms then surely that’s a better outcome.
