Ive been watching as many live Arcade Fire videos as i can on YouTube, and they look amazing. So much passion and enthusiasm. The added 'pressure' and expectation put on them if they do headline the Mainstage will lead to an extra special performance i feel. They may even explode trying too hard to impress .. but im sure they will be fantastic!

to be honest we all seem to be bitching and moaning and disagreeing on this post

i'd like to say.

1. i'm going with what Neil says as he runs efestivals and knows a shit load more about the industry than me or probbaly all of us.

2. i personally like all 3 headliners, but if not i'd go anyway coz its reading and its a amazing weekend.

3. GnR, arnt as epic as they used to be, get over it, but that dosen't mean they arnt as good and they'd still be fun to see.

4. if you don't like Mcr, go see someone else.

5. Arcade fire deserve a chance to headline and if there shit then at least no other festival will make that mistake again. besides if i don;t like tyhem i'll just go into the tent.

6. it makes more sense for the liberteens to be special guests. theres a massive amount of mixed opinions towards them and also there is the fear of pete getting arrested. personally i think they could pull of headlinging but this is a safer bet and will be just as good.

let the abuse towards me commence...

I am disappointed with these headliners.. Obviously Blink are amazing and I am happy for the chance to see them after thinking I never would.

But the other two...

Guns and Roses are old news, no slash, they are likely to play a lot of the new album and I'm sure not many people will have heard it.

Arcade Fire are a good band and I really respect them. But put them in the NME tent on sunday night and everyone will love it. Main stage, everyone will want to see a band like Blink who can smash hits out and get everyone going and I don't think Arcade Fire are up to it.

Luckily the headliners dont matter too much. You Me At Six, Paramore All Time Low, Biffy Clyro, Pendulem, Lostprophets and Libertines all look likely and I am exited for everyone of those!

Should be a good fest, I'm just going to stay clear of two of the headliners!
