Yes, exactly!

Fontaines update - being led to believe they've opted not to take the slot. Couldn't say for sure, but I suspect it's right.   I will be able to confirm 100%, but likely not until the start of December. Just thought I'd provide an update, based on what I've been told (original post was always with the caveat that they were undecided).

In the sense of they were never 'in' to begin with?   Because RS seems to make it clear they arent touring until Autumn next year (outside of the album launch shows)

The Cure did not drop out of the lineup.

IDLES would be a rubbish booking for me given they haven't really been good or relevant for about half a decade at this point but I'm sure they'll be something else good on.
