Nah but like what if they’re holding off the poster until oasis announce a reuinion and then they’ll be on the poster as oasis. Obviously massively wishful thinking from me but it’d be pretty cool and would sell out instantly

You really think Noel would okay that idea?

No yeah Ik but like it could have been initially booked as Liam but then Noel decided to reuinite after Liam had been announced? I know it’s very very unlikely

Would say Blossoms are out.

 

Just to say regardless, they'd surely be higher than 3rd MSW

Hearing lots of rumours about an oasis reunion. Obviously there’s rumours every year but some of these stories definitely have a ring of truth tbf. What are the chances it’ll be oasis and not just Liam 

Hasn't this been a rumour every year since Oasis first broke up?

Yeah if it happens it'll be 2025 at the earliest now given Liam and Noel already have '24 commitments.

It was mentioned at one point in here that they were selling day tickets in batches, maybe each batch is more money, however cant remember seeing that day sold out apart from during presale

[RandomEnglishPerson]

i made a prediction earlier to myself that i have a feeling Lana del ray will drop out of reading at some point

I just didn't know there was a tier 3. Tier 1 was 115, tier 2 125 now tier 3 150. Quite the jump

Oh wow I didnt know it had gone up prior. That is a big jump.

Lineup prediction - Finding it very strange that there has still been no mention of MSE and MSW. Could be a return to the old format with co-headliners on every day and all 13 names already announced as stage headliners.

The names announced at present are just far too stacked for the old format I think

I am still curious as to why we havent heard anything about MSE/MSW yet and the lack of poster makes me think there is something we dont know yet BUT that being said i think a lot of the names we already have are subs still because this looks too strong

Also Ice Spice in 1XTRA would be DANGEROUS

Not too clued up on current rap, don’t think I’ve actually known anyone that’s played on 1xtra in recent years so just had a guess at that one

the only issue id have is that there's going to be multiple clashes that would be highly annoying, like why would you put the prodigy up against blink, hopefully if they were to do so it would be so that the set finishes just before the real headliner performs

The dance tent will likely end early with them closing it before blink come on

An arena act who is headlining IOW on the dance stage just isn't happening

Good point, perhaps dance will get expanded to R1 kind of size

I could see that happening but if it does I think they may sack the comedy stage off and make a smaller dance stage and then rename it to alternative or R1 stage with loads of different styles. Even a huge R1 stage tent would seem too small for The Prodigy, like why not have them as one of the headliners or a late night closing act as they can’t be playing in broad daylight.

Honestly no idea but seems they will be in some kind of tent unless they add Main Stage North haha

Not particularly sure why they even agreed to this slot.. I guess they just wanted the paycheck.
