Don't think I've met anyone that actually liked Libertines' 2015 album. I also don't think it would be a shock if they did sub given their decline AND they subbed before. 

i like Gunga Din, the only song I knew in 2015(when i thought they were absolutely w*nk) and managed to go to the toilet just as they played it

Are we honestly entertaining this rumour by someone who's never even posted ANYTHING on the site before, let alone anything credible. 

Yes? Of course we are. This is the efestivals RandL thread. 

We've entertained worse.

I dont mind it. Its not an expected Libertines album but has tunes I love listening to: Barbarians, Gunga Din, Heart of The Matter, Fury of Chonburi, Bucket Shop, You're my waterloo, Fame and Fortune, Lust of the Libertines. Actually most of the album hahaha. I can listen and enjoy it. Every time I have seen them they have been great. Though I drink a lot and thats gonna enhance it. Long story short, Anthems of doomed youth is class.

Reading it, if the guys right I would say Libertines have a great history with the festival, being the gigs they returned to after the split, better history than foals if you have to guess.

Libertines make more sense of the history with the festival but Foals make more logical sense to this lineup and emulates whats happening at TRNSMT with them subbing.

Foals have pretty decent history, was 2015 not their first headline gig and a secret set a year before. Pretty much scaled the lineup

Thats class mate, wish I had a dad who loved music and wanted to go the Leeds. Very very lucky, must have been a great experience. I was only allowed to go at 16 and missed it due to not liking the lineup, looking back it was class.

I know they're headlining smaller festivals in England now but I don't think Foals would want to drop below headline level at R&L yet, especially below Disclosure and Catfish. I don't think them only subbing TRNSMT affects things much, Foals have never been quite as big in Scotland and even in 2016 they would have subbed TRNSMT.

Ahh okay. thanks for that, didnt realise they weren't as big in Scotland, thought they just accepted being lower.

Libertines confirmed.

Yeah I got pretty lucky in that way, coz he really shaped my musical taste, hence why I'd rather have your QOTSA, RATM and Foos than Post Malone and Disclsoure

What year was that you turned 16?

I was at Deadmau5😎🤠

I walked past the tent and it was rammed. No entry. Looked decent tho. I ended up seeing the last few songs of Refused (why wasn't I there anyway?). They were exceptional. But it was bittersweet as I knew I'd fucked it having wasted time at The Libertines.

    • Hush cancelled with a similar event now taking place at EartH and Cate Le Bon doing her own show, maybe others have rearranged gigs?
    • Yeah I find it strange, if they were just a silly act then they wouldn't be headlining the 3rd stage. The likes of vengaboys yes but they aren't doing their own sizeable arena dates.  That looks very weak for what they could actually get, but GC aren't playing 3rd main stage with The 02 and the Coop arena and in a same slot that KSE are. MIW aren't carrying those two dates either, neither are Turnstile and Parkway Drive tickets didn't play out. You gotta do better than Ghost, Blink and Deftones though.    I think you are a bit even if that is not the intention. I'm genuinely shocked they booked them for the avalanche and I think it'll be rammed out of the tent. While ADTR will obviously get a lot too, many Download attendees will had the chance to see them at Slam Dunk. I think 90s fest getting Scooter was class and while there would have been some Download crossover, the Slam Dunk crossover given acts you get on the avalanche will be a different level.
