Headlining the Second Stage at Download. 

Which makes sense but they arent big enough to headline the second stage at Reading. They are a night act imo and they arent big enough to be that.

They’ve done it before. Doesn’t mean they’re big enough now of course but it wasn’t that long back (2018).

As you’ve joined the discussion, Yungblud would’ve been a shoe in the last couple of years I think, the perfect example of a big up and coming up with a large, dedicated fan base who’d have thrived and had a real ‘event’ moment up against some old fart like Liam Gallagher or similar, as opposed to being just another act on at 5pm

Pendulum secret set from Reading up on Youtube

This was SO MUCH FUN.

Don't see them coming back to R&L properly next year but it's time for them to come back to Donnington for sure.

Can't go wrong with a big tent.

How big are Pendulum these days with the younger crowd? No idea how to measure them.

I think they could headline the dance tent - it would be quite packed but they'd be shit at 5pm main stage.

They are definitely not massive with the younger crowd, a lot less well known than your andy c, shy fx, chase and status which is what makes them hard to place as they are definitely bigger than say shy fx.

Not really "big", but they have some young fans. We're 30 and we met a really sound 18 year old at Pendulum this year, but most of his mates were back at the tent getting drunk rather than actually watching them or Wolf Alice or Ho99o9, which all makes sense. 

[The All Round Ball :|]

Might be late to the party on this but Paramore got new music this month and are doing shows in the US soon. I can see them being at R & L next year for sure. Not been there in ages and would easily fit the bill.

Gorillaz ain’t happening. Cardi would be fun though.

Have you got a lineup anywhere? Can’t seem to find one, other than a fake on Twitter

Where have you seen this?

All I can find is this, but I'm pretty sure it's a fake fan-made lineup

Yeah no way is Billie Eilish smaller than Paramore/Gwen Stefani/Blink 182

[Andre91]

Blink-182, My Chemical Romance & Paramore on the same lineup COME ON R&L. Make us 30 year olds happy.

this is a obvious fake one but the headliners were leaked by brazilian journalist jose norberto flesch, he is famous for leaking festival lineups with almost 100% accuracy

The Wombats subbed Madness at Tramlines festival this year - if they're subbing a B-tier festival then they can play third down at festival like Leeds.

1975 playing but not headlining, over Blink-182 gives me high hopes that they will be Sunday MSE act. Given that 1975 were set to headline this year, I'd take it that a few of these names are being lined up.

 

Paramore | Drake | Blink-182 > very R&L main stage booking

Sam Fender | Doja Cat | Panic at the Disco! > very MSW booking

Hear me out. RHCP still not cancelled/refunded the Glasgow show that didn't go ahead saying they're "working on it". Only reason I can see is that they're going to be back next year for some reason and R&L the only festival I can see them doing (also satisfies the previous headliner tag) so could add a Glasgow show after?

[metallimuse]

Really hope Paramore are there next year but I just thought, think they could do a APE date instead? Could see Hailey really liking the idea of curating her own day.

Can you imagine the outrage of the social media generation if that was the line-up. Imagine the riots in the campsites from the teenagers hyped up on the 1xtra tent and there first actual drink, and first weekend away without parents. 

Granted, us 30s will love it.

That lineup would be a stunning, I know it. She has some brilliant taste, our Hayley.
