Earlier the Austrian Frequency Festival posted this (translated with Google): "What happens to Line Up Phase 2? Because some international acts have decided to announce their shows for 2020 (incl. FQ20) only in the new year, we have to move Line Up Phase 2 (incl. Announcement video) with a heavy heart - probably at the end of January. "

I think next week we can expect a big tour announcement. Eminem or someone else?

They announced that they'll have to postpone the headliner(s) announcement on the 9th of December.

What's interesting is that RHCP announced Frusciante coming back somewhere around the 15th of December.

Could it be RHCP because Frusciante's return? I guess we'll find out soon.

I forgot to edit my post and add Foals, Stereophonics, Supergrass and Primal Scream when you quoted me.  Maybe you would take some of these too!

Maybe they cancelled the RHCP dates that weren't announced and are replacing them with a band from their record label or something?

Just give me an announcement and I'll be happy!

 

 

 

 

(and it must contain Foals).

RHCP plus Foals on the main would be amazing. It was like that at Open’er a few years ago and it’s still one of the best nights of my life

Creamfields just confirmed their first wave of artists.

Pretty impressive.

As an old fart who doesn't listen to EDM I'm amazed to realise how many of them I've heard of.

18 in total, which is about 15 more than I expected to know.

I also heard of some of them... saw their names on other posters.  

[dolevshelly]

they got 2/3 headliner names per night. amazing!

[On The Blend]

I think that might literally be every big EDM act I can name, very impressive.

Last years was better. 

[The_Preach]

I am guessing the big name people are talking about for R&L and Sziget and probably other festivals in August is Eminem (Most likely, and would love this)  or Lady Gaga who is probably announcing new music and a tour upcoming weekend.

35 of the 70 acts are the same as last year, so basically every year same (great) lineup with about 30-50% changes.

Imagine this would be at Sziget.

I agree. It had Fat Boy Slim and The Chemical Brothers, who I like, as opposed to a lot of names this year I know are big but I've never even listened to. 

[#1SzigetFan]

There are some names that I would like to see at Sziget too:

Would love to see Bombay Bicycle Club there. Saw them in 2014 at Latitude Festival and they were sublime.

No tour seems to be the consensus on the Reading forum

If we are getting a 2018 headliner returning I'd say Dua Lipa is more likely tbh.

Well apparently we are getting 2018 co-headliner returning as a headliner 🤷🏼‍♂️ and I don't like that 😶 😔

I'd imagine that's Liam Gallagher.
