Reading/Leeds Poster Leak

[Jung]

Yea I was surprised by the Lock Up / Dance Stage being announced this early, but then it's not the only thing that's changed this year. Anything could happen really

[twenty_foot_chickens]

There's a lot of things wrong with - The Subways playing, Hot Chip said they werent doing anything till 2010, Blood Red Shoes said they weren't also. Also, the placing of The Futureheads boggles me - and Paul Weller & the Kooks are not what i'd expect.

I also expected Friendly Fires to be in the first announcement. Guess we wont know till Neil comes on in the morning, or the announcement tomorrow night!

The only thing that keeps drawing it to me is the quality of it, it does seems to be a real copy simply scanned. Maybe FR is announcing more acts due to the price hike this year - would make sense i suppose.

It's a good line-up I must add.

It's a good fake. But I'm sure I've seen it before in colour jpeg style. Like this one I did.

Just thought. Maybe someone printed it out then scanned it back? It wouldn't be hard to do. And as pointed out stuff like the Arctic Monkeys logo is out of date.

Lol, yours still says 2008.

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

[twenty_foot_chickens]

I've now come to terms that it is a fake - out of date logos for the main stage headliner, and the NME headliners don't have their styled logo, which they have in recent years. Very good effort though.

I must also say that poster had been taken down, but is now back up. FR must've examined and allowed it stay up - they probably wouldn't do that if it was real?

[TheOneCurlyFry]

All that effort and I forget to change the year

[funkymp]

empire of the sun - dont play live do they? and mogwai are pretty big, no way you'd put them in the small tent, same with bon iver

[inspectedinspector]

Exciting times!!

[Bradders]

I found the original.

[gregory]

Bon Iver is much bigger than Laura Marling, logos are out of date, stage headliners are unrealistic... i'm going for a fake.

i would like that lineup though. not that i can afford to go

[twenty_foot_chickens]

That's put an end to that then, was it on this site Bradders?

[Bradders]

It was on the official Leeds board.

[inspectedinspector]

Hopefully the organisers wouldn't be as silly to put Radiohead and the Decemberists clashing also.

[2reese2]

I found the original.

[robith]

M.I.A would be great

[deegs]

She's just about to have a kid though - and she's hardly fond of playing live at the best of times

[fingers_mark]

Obvious fake.

Doves would never be below The Futureheads.

Doves are playing Brixton Academy twice in May

The Futureheads play sheds these days
