Festival Tiips Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 22 minutes ago, charlierc said: If it is Killers & Foals, I'd be up for it if they're on the same day, not least as I'm still upset at missing Foals' tour in April when I caught covid so couldn't go. Plus they played on the same night at Mad Cool and Brandon said they're big fans of Foals. But I'm wholly prepared that R&L's use of contrasting headliners between the two stages means its not a foregone conclusion they'd even be on the same night as one another if they are appearing at this crazy thing.

Why these 6 - what's the evidence behind them? Just purely wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyDavid Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 If they put 2 of The Killers, Sam Fender & Foals on the same day that might get me a day ticket depending on the rest of the line up. But knowing them they'll put one on each different day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it depends who you ask is strongest. Looking on Spotify (I know not a great source) aperantly Imagine Dragons are the 16th most popular artist in the world. (Personally I don't rate them) Actually here's how they all rank Billie Eilish 22nd The Killers 256th Sam Fender Not in top 500 Imagine Dragons 16th Foals Not in top 500 Lewis Capaldi 91st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine Dragons, whilst a weirdly popular Spotify band, haven't really done too much over here at the top of a festival line-up. Billie and The Killers as the two big headliners, with Foals/Sam Fender on the peripheral of being big enough on the same day makes the most sense to me out of those 6, but all just a prediction.

Yeah was surprised to see Dragons that high up the spotify list. I guess they must be super popular in the US. If the rumours are true that someone pulled out (green day was it) then I bet they were the band to fill that spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FR are horrible with replacements though if that's the case. 1975 for RATM and now ID for Green Day? 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanh Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 i'm just thinking Melvin said that three had headlined before but out of the current rumoured six I can only remember The Killers and Foals headlining. Whilst I know that Melvin isn't the most reliable source put this through our rumoured six into uncertainty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they have a wierd obsession with bland UScentric stadium rock. Tbf, Brits have always had an obsession with northern jack the lads with punchy anthems or slow moping around (kaiser chiefs, Arctic Monkeys, fratellis, oasis, enemy, fratellis, libertines). I went to a sushi restaurant the other day and they just had Imagine Dragons on in the background for the entire hour. Funnily, I thought to myself "wtf this is Imagine Dragons. Christ, Imagine if they were playing Reading. Thank god that's not happening anytime" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
