Flobadobalob Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 That's just political nicey nice crud, egos, the managers refusing to go down the bill when they have already headlined the festival before. Blur are the headliner, Snow Patrol just won't admit it. Blur are a much bigger pull than Snow Patrol. T has had Razorlight and Travis 'co-headlining' when the act above them is blatantly the biggest act and the headline one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyelo Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Snow patrol are still big enough to be headliners though so it doesnt make any difference. I was suggesting that kol headline reading with arctics before them and vice versa in leeds. Edited March 29, 2009 by BenchBuddah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pink_triangle Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Put Oasis on a stage, Artics would play 2nd. Blur on, Snow Patrol play 2nd etc as they are just another level. I doubt whether Artics or KOL would play 2nd to each other though, they can put 'co-headliner' on it all they want there is still the final act which is seen as the headliner and certain egos wouldn't allow this.

robith Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Brilliant. I don't go to Reading any more (veteran of 02 through to 06), but nothing makes me feel like spirng is coming more than the Reading fake line up poster thread. Not that it's an unrealistic line up - it's just that poster is clearly fake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan1892 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) there was a black and white line up poster on this site but it has been removed, i was just about to screen shot as well! http://twitpic.com/2j7hn It had rancid headlining the lockup on the same day as kings of leon, m.i.a headlining another tent i think.

codfish Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 ahh c'mon efests where the official leaks and rumours! its only 1 day to go, and we still dont know hardly anything about big main stage acts playing! is radiohead even for definate!?

pink_triangle Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I would be amazed if that is the line up, looking at previosu line ups we dont normally get so many main stage bands announced at first and we normally get the nme tent headliners.

Jung Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Someone just sent me a link to this, ten minutes later it was pulled down from the site hosting it. Which is definitely interesting. It looks a lot more believable than anything I've seen before, especially the creases in the paper showing it's been scanned suggesting some clever fool that works somewhere like HMV has borrowed it early. I doubt someone would go through the trouble of shopping a fake, printing it and scanning it back in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammy2211 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Don't think we'd ever get that much from a first announcement, it's twice what we'd normally expect. Not a bad line up though - although the absense of Deftones gets me, plus The Subways said they weren't playing? EDIT - Hot Chip said they're not playing as well...

dirty pretty libertine Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 That does look quite convincing. Billy Talent playing twice on the Saturday would be a treat. No real surprises though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
