Probably the best option for a dance act to follow on from Disclosure. Would tread lightly around mentioning Kevin and the lads, people seem to get touchy around here about their presence Also thought. Instead of seeing it as 4 separate genres (rap,dance,indie,rock) can it not be split into 2 (pop and rock): in that respect you don’t need a disclosure type headliner but can instead go for another mainstream act that appeal to a similar crowd, like Halsey who has be suggested Dave/Courteeners RATM/Halsey or Doja Cat The Weeknd or Travis Scott/Foals or Royal Blood Edited September 2, 2021 by Gerard the Fab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dance act definitely isn't guaranteed but just what I would like to see and it certainly goes down well. I reckon 50/50 rock/indie and rap/pop/dance is pretty certain. Maybe its more 3 rock/indie, 2 rap then 1 pop/dance. I guess thats what you were saying though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumperofftheshelf Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) I know people aren’t too into Tame Impala here but god they would be a fantastic headliner. The best live act I’ve ever seen (besides maybe Biffy) with a fantastic stage show and at least a handful of songs popular with a lot of the R&L demographic. Would be a great booking imo RATM // Courteeners Dave // Royal Blood Dua Lipa or The Weeknd // Tame Impala Edited September 2, 2021 by jumperofftheshelf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metallimuse Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Is he doing an arena tour now? I’d agree he should be nailed if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say they're probably around MSE sub size nowadays. Their last UK tour in 2019 which was just Academies didn't even sell out, I don't think. They would still go down well though. Them subbing MSE, with Royal Blood headlining and then RATM headlining MSW, and that's an instant day ticket for me, no problem.

If Rage and Capaldi have been rolled over from 2020 and 2021 respectively that’s two of the three booked headliners.

That's not what he said. Royal Blood would be headlining MSE between the two.

That should be brilliant too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buko Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Yeah also came on here to say the size of that Dave tour I imagine he's nailed on for Main Stage East headliner nevermind west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Things you love to see: the most conscious, vital and talented artist in the country right now playing venues THAT big. Dave to be one of the three ‘true’ headliners at R&L for sure. Dave, Kasabian & RATM to be the three Main Stage East headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
