I think the secret set is the s.l.p

My thinking now is that it’ll be the SLP but Tom will join Serge on stage and they’ll do one or two Kasabian songs together.

Now that would be amazing, love Bandana, can't see it though unfortunately - I'd guess the majority RnL goers that like rap are more into trap or grime

Curious, why do you not think it would be the whole of Kasabian?

 

Just seen an article about rumours and Florence & the Machine was mentioned, 10 year anniversary of Lungs, no dates atm.

 

For me out of the likeliest I'd love Florence, Sam Fender or Kasabian (Foals would blow my mind but I think they're in France?)

 

Is it worth listening to Annie Mac this Thursday night???

Most likely reason for not the whole of Kasabian is lack of space. Its unlikely they'd put a huge act like Florence or Kasabian on any stage other than the Radio 1, and there aren't any gaps for secret sets there (I think the two gaps people are expecting secret sets on, at Reading at least, are on the Festival republic on Friday and the Pit on Sunday?). So if anything comes from those Kasabian posts its more likely to be the SLP, but I'd still guess that its nothing. Sam Fender is a good shot to be fair for the FR spot on Friday.

Would love Ghost in that Pit slot... got excited for a moment as I noticed they're playing shows around Europe this weekend, but looks like they're in Germany on Sunday.

Did we eliminate the possibility of an act being on the dance stage early Sunday ?(reading) it’s always seemed pretty big in there.

Strangely there's a similar gap at Leeds, but also on the Sunday.  It is a big tent and they've put 'non dance' acts on in there early on before.

Leeds still showing Jaguar Skills having a long set on there on that day, which looked like an error on the app but is still on there.

If they put Kasabian clashing with Vistas I’m going to be pissed. 

[rivalschools.price]

Don’t think it means anything but Modestep just tweeted something like ‘Jealous of all those going to R/L, hopefully we’ll be back there soon’ with a smiley face.

I'm gonna laugh when it's "Y3K" on The Pit.

Sherlocks for Secret set on FR stage then...

Fits in perfectly for them as they are doing the Sunday at Victorious so could do Friday Reading / Saturday Leeds

They played a small club here in Munich about 4 or 5 years ago. Space isn't a problem.

Kasabian are fucking huge in the UK. They ain't playing in a small tent

I know they are huge. They are fairly big here too.

There's also a massive difference between playing a small show with limited tickets and an open tent with way too many people trying to get in

A club and a small tent at a big festival are two different things. You have people on the door at a club to control the capacity of how many are inside but at R&L you will have the capacity of the festival trying to get into a tent.
