[Dukey]

Looks like we’ve definitely got Slowrhai and Idles now which I’m buzzing for as they were two of the acts I wanted to return

I’ll be in it no doubt.

Yeah, me too. I quite like a few of his songs. I can imagine the crowd will be mental too considering how massive he is with the younger attendees.

KSI could come out on stage with the sidemen, sing little boy for an hour and 95% of the audience (myself included) would be buzzing

Just with their tour dates - Idles have a huge gap and are playing London on the Thursday and Slowthai there was a reason but I’ve forgotten it

Special festival performance, purely sidemen diss tracks

 

[TKOCF]

Hope KSI plays this absolute bop

 

[andyrhodes24]

Victorious have released their lineup. If there’s some crossover I’d take The Streets, The Lathums, Fontaine’s DC and Pigsx7

[JSmurphy]

Damn I wish that Sunday lineup was on a different day. Would be all over it.

[TheWaters]

quite gutted that this is on the monday of reading I’d be all over this if I wasn’t getting the coach back up to birmingham that day. just isn’t feasible for me to be able to make it back to london for this

[NoBuses]

R1 headliners ; IDLEs, The Streets, Slowthai 

 

?

[PsycoSaurus]

These are my predictions, just based on other festivals/gigs happening around Reading weekend. For a few of them I've guessed what days they'll be playing Reading. Let's see how many I can tick off. 

Tom Grennan
Slowthai
The Hunna
Declan McKenna
Circa Waves
Sam Fender
Pale Waves
Easy Life
Inhaler
The Magic Gang	Fri/Sun
Sundara Karma
Working Men's Club
Skepta
Bicep	Friday
Camelphat
Annie Mac
Little Simz	Sunday
Becky Hill
Shygirl
Foals	Fri/Sun
Tom Misch	Sunday
Arlo Parks	Sunday
Jade Bird	Fri/Sun
Fontaines DC	Friday
Miles Kane	Friday
Idles	Friday
The Streets	Sunday

[Andre91]

Every festival is announcing their lineups. Surely R&L must follow suit imminently? I know they're sold out but people will be getting impatient seeing all of these other lineups being put out.

Make you wonder if some of the bands who have been announced can’t make it and they are looking for replacements

Yeah, that's what I'm wondering too. Slam Dunk and Bloodstock have both made announcements with a few US bands missing and UK bands replacing them.

Pretty much 100% UK based bands, which is an interesting thing to note when maybe thinking where Reading will be looking.  Victorious is the most Gammon of festivals though so perhaps a little bit of a curveball!

Do these dates fit around Leeds?

[NoBuses]

I'm pretty sure Arlo Parks is playing, on the FR

Yeah they do. There are no clashes but maybe some inconvenient timing. E.g. some bands being at Leeds one day and Victorious the next, so they'll be travelling up and down the country.

Think a few people have mentioned it but replacing QOTSA with BMTH/Biffy and Post with someone like Dua Lipa would be ace (and probably not rock the boat too much)

If BMTH get the headline spot they deserve I will be buzzing 

[Known-Radio]

I've been trying my hardest to get into QOTSA and struggling so far, they just aren't my thing. BMTH as a subsitute would have me bouncing off the ceiling

Same here, as the rock headliner QOTSA seem to be dividing even the rock fans. Still can't work out why BMTH haven't headlined or even co-headlined, it's about time they were given a go
