2023 Festival

[CG31]

Yh Kendrick, Paramore, Cardi B, Doja Cat, MGK, Kasabian/Foals makes the most sense to me rn

[VCK]

Dua Lipa/Foals
Kendrick Lamar/Paramore
The Killers/Doja Cat

Not sure Billie or Dua will be touring next year. Think Kendrick is the most likely rap act with his tour this year and new album out. Kasabian over Sam Fender due to his big shows. Paramore and Kasabian are more likely than Foals I’d say and I’m not sure they’d book both Kasabian and Foals in headline slots, think it’d be one or the other. Not sure about Jamie T due to his Finsbury shows, might end up headlining the smaller festivals like Sam Fender last year. MGK and Cardi B have got to be in with shots of headlining, think MGK is highly likely after his recent success and arena tour this year. 

So are we thinking a line up like -

 

Cardi B | Kendrick Lamar | My Chemical Romance

Machine Gun Kelly | Doja Cat | Paramore

Imagine Nicki Minaj headlining in 2012/13. She would have been crucified. 

3-4 big festival shows are never out of the question

Maybe Dua in for Cardi or Doja then

Cardi B as headliner would be perhaps the most dogshit booking the festival has ever made.

I’d say only one of Your initial list is MSE in this day and age. Although I wouldn’t the surprised if it does slowly devolve into what would have been 6 ‘co-headliners’ back in the day.

Would be decent MSW stuff if they keep the 6 headliner farce up

I’d snap your hand off for those headliners.

I have a festival on Saturday. Do you reckon if the Queen pops it today or tomorrow we'll have a week of mourning and all events will have to be cancelled?

Footie will probably be off and you'll get her funeral off work but I doubt they'd cancel festivals.

Headlined Wireless this year, sold out rapid - headlining a couple of others including Rolling Loud New York. Think she has a new album due as well

[NoBuses]

The Weeknd wouldn't go down well but eminem in 2022 would. Ok.

Never happening. 3 punk/pop punk headliners won’t happen. No indie / generic rock option

Would NDubz be written off? Sold out a massive arena tour which is in the next couple of months. Any chance of them headlining? How would they go down you reckon?

Sounds about right but the demand must be there to sell multiple arena dates unfortunately. It wouldn't surprise me if they headline next year. 

[thewayiam]

I think Reading given the direction it's going in would jump at the chance to have a side kinda day with MCR and Paramore.

I’d say this is most likely right now but they’ll be an indie act in there so replace either Cardi B or Doja Cat with The Killers or Kasabian. Probably Kasabian instead of Doja Cat as not sure she’ll be touring and then one of Kasabian, Paramore or Cardi headlining MSE, not sure who is the biggest tbh.

Multiple arena dates to people older than the R&L crowd.

[Andre91]

If N-Dubz headlined, I would honestly do a Greg Pucciato and chuck a bag of my own poo around the Main Stage area.

And alot of people suggesting Kasabian which most of there fan base are in there 30's or 40's. I've no idea how old a standard NDubz crowd are but I was about 16 when they came on the scene.
