twenty_foot_chickens Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Like I say, I think it's unlikely. They've barley announced any tour dates as it is, gives me the impression that it's a one off. Do a few summer gigs, some shows in Europe, some shows in America, maybe a couple in Japan, a UK arena tour. Finish. It just seems to me that they're very reluctant to actually tour at the moment.

tomdsjames Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Foo Fighters, Muse, Green Day with Blink 182 playing underneath That's what I would love to happen and is possible as they're all touring next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twenty_foot_chickens Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 It's possible, but in the economic climate I wouldn't hold out for Foo's, Green Day or Blink - Muse are far more likely in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twenty_foot_chickens Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Of course it does - an English festival wanting to book an American headliner is going to have to have to pay more to secure them. I wasn't referring to ticket sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2reese2 Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 take that for headline spot next year piss off it will be blink, Kasabian, muse thats if Kasabian album does well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen07 Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 (edited) Only on here. People were still struggling to get tickets it was so popular. Edited April 1, 2009 by stephen07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charmer Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) Can't see it being Green Day and Blink... Seems like two bands that are too similair. Maybe Foo Fighters.. Or The Libertines Edited April 2, 2009 by Charmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beLIEveR Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I've got nothing against either band, but if BOTH were headlining that would make this year look legendary in comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moss265 Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Would be surprised if Green day don't headline next year - it will have been 6 years since they last did (my first Leeds woo!). Kasabian would be a good bet if the new album doesn't flop. Linkin Park always gonna be in with a shot, and yeah maybe The Strokes (perhaps only manage second from top) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charley Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Surely Blink would not be close to headlining.... that would be a sad day for Reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chihiro Cheeks Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Foos, Green Day N MCR to headline with Blink as a 2nd headliner ..... I can dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhysieg Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I really don't think Blur are going to be touring next summer - Damon will go back to Gorillaz, Graham will go back to doing solo stuff, Alex will want to be farming again and Dave will be pumping the election campaign, I believe it's highly unlikely. I'd also say that until the pound is fareing better against the Euro and the US Dollar, I'd expect the 'big' headliners to be English. Muse, Franz Ferdinand & The Strokes maybe. Green Day & Blink will come too expensive I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Fatality Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Don't personally reckon Kasabian will headline at all - you seen the venues they're playing this tour compared to the last one? (Well, last tour they played Nottingham Arena, this time around they're playing Rock City...) I know Tom's ego has stopped them from playing festivals in the last couple of years, but I think that will bother them as much now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomisnothere Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 big bands doing small tours doesn't mean much when they don't have an album to promote yet - don't read into that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomdsjames Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Sorry for resurrecting a dead thread but seemed more sense posting this here than starting a new one... Has any one heard Green Day's new single yet? It's available for download on itunes tomorrow and there's a 90sec preview on their official site and myspace. I'm so excited for this new album that it can't be expressed in words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hearing_aid Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I heard the preview of the new Green Day song. Its awful. Why people would want the band Green Day have become to headline baffles me. But each to thier own, think they are a dead cert for next year and not played for a while.
