Im not saying they cant headline festivals in the UK, just they would be an out there shout to top the bill at Reading, which in the main sticks to mainstream headliners. Will be interesting to see what kind of crowd they draw at APE, I think thats more their scene than R&L but if they struggle to sell well in central London, no chance they can headline Reading This seems wild to me. Might just be my echo chamber but Tame Impala seem like the second most reading band after AM. They seem to appeal to rock fans loads, are most rap fans fave rock act, and used relentlessly on tiktok. They might struggle at APE because of the pretty weak undercard, king giz definitely should have been on their day, but on a reading day would probably be the first day to sell out 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m thinking they’ll be more suited to R&L and it’s Downloads anniversary next year I think they’ll go big on heavy acts like Metallica, RATM and Slipknot but yeah could go either way as Metallica could decide to do their own shows and RATM, Slipknot and MCR would still be massive for Download.

Don’t think it’s a question of Kendrick or MCR as I think R&L could get both but if R&L get Paramore I don’t think they’ll get MCR. Looking like Travis Scott and Post Malone will also be around next year so could be 1 of 3 between Kendrick, Travis Scott and Post Malone.

foolee Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 Updated prediction due to Kendrick’s new album and that it’s looking like MCR may have new music out as well. I do think it’ll definitely be one Kendrick or Travis Scott but I’m not 100% on which one yet. The 1975 / Machine Gun Kelly Kendrick Lamar / Paramore My Chemical Romance / Sam Fender 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendrick feels like the obvious booking. New album and it gives L+R a little more distance from the Astroworld shit. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping to see some more MCR dates on the calendar beyond this summer run, hopefully it’s one of or combination of DL, R&L and a UK arena tour in 2023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copping said in an interview last year that he had made an offer for them to headline but they couldn’t do it (I assume because of the MK shows getting announced) so he’s definitely keen to get them. I’ve said it many times but I think they’d get a hero’s welcome at DL these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jericode Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 I think MCR go Download 2023 > Jan/Feb 2024 UK Arenas > R&L 2024 personally. Download can make a go of being their "only UK show of 2023" or whatever, then you immediately get the arena shows in for the people who couldn't do Download before ending this album cycle at R&L.

WhoOdyssey Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 Panic! at the Disco are definitely releasing new music soon, so they seem like a decent bet for next year. https://www.shutupandgotobed.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
