The Line-Up 2010

[dblythe]

I have a dialemma, friends wanna see pendulum, i wanna see arcade fire

[Budweiser]

Very strong line up, considering the rumours we had last month... Actually very suprised.

[thejimbola]

Awesome lineup! Exactly the right amount of variety so that everyone I know wants to come! There is every possible genre of music you could imagine playing at Reading and some brilliant bands. Saturday is a bit of a nothing day for me, but a few of my mates will love it.

Guns N Roses!!!! QOTSA, Lostprophets, NOFX, Blink 182, Weezer, Cypress Hill, Limp Bizkit are the stand out ones for me, but I wouldn't mind watching a lot of the others too.

I have had my faith in Reading Festival restored in my 10th consecutive year, when after last year I was counting down to the time when I would give up on Reading and just go to Download each year. Who needs money anyway!

[Tom1889]

About 20 bands i wanna see already, and thats only in the first announcement!

Chuffed to bits. Loved the surprises e.g Dizzee, Pendulum headlining, Cypress Hill, Modest Mouse, Billy Talent.

S'all goood!

[Lubic]

There's 9 bands I'd like to see (inc Libertines, Limp Bizkit) but the rest of the lineup's not that great for me really - most people I know agree and aren't buying tickets now, which is annoying for me cos I'd go no matter who's playing. Last year and the year before were stronger in my opinion, mainly because their headliners (excluding KOL and Metallica) were a lot better.

And day tickets aren't that appealing to me cos of clashes, and the fact that the bands I wanna see are spread out across all 3 days.

Ah well, maybe my mates will change their minds and get ebay tickets nearer the time. Really enjoyed the last couple of years

Friday night Main Stage is really strong (Never seen GNR and although everbody says there crap now I'm still excited to see them) and with QOTSA, Biffy and Lost Prophets below them its all pretty rocktastic.

I would personally have happily swapped Saturday's NME's Line up with Sunday's as it would have given me less dilemmas. Still well happy with Cypress Hill and be interested to see Limp Bizkit again after 10 years at Reading. (bizarrely in exactly the same slot if things stay as they are except Sunday rather than Friday) and still the lock up and FR to come so I think its gonna be a good 'un

[Role Model]

lots of bands i liked years ago that i never got a chance to see, so i'm happy there. and enough stuff i like now to please me. think it's gone well, even without Eminem.

[she bangs the drums]

Honestly it couldn't have been much better for me if I'd picked it

Billy Talent, NOFX, Lostprophets, Biffy Clyro, Queens of the Stone-Age - That's more bands I like than in last years announcement in one day

Then you've got - Weezer - Awesome, Limp Bizkit - Awesome, Blink 182 - Awesome.

This is the exact opposite to how I felt after last years announcement.

[JoeBLufcMUSIC]

great. there's about 15 i want to see. bit disappointed about eminem though, me, being stupid got my hopes up, lol, but oh well, next best thing in rap, cypress hill . happy with a lot of the bands

This lineup is immense, only big clash I can see so far is probably having to miss We Are Scientists, otherwise everything is perfect. Is is just me or could the Bands playing fourth down on the main stage ( ie The Cribs, Cypress Hill and Lost Prophets) easily have sub-headlined. And they are playing fourth - Wicked.

Limp Bizkit, Cypress Hill, Weezer, Paramore and Blink 182 all in a row is very special indeed.

I bet the Lock-up will bring some nasty clashes.

[evilduck]

So very pleased with this announcement. LCD Soundsystem! QOTSA!

[SpiralD]

I have a dialemma, friends wanna see pendulum, i wanna see arcade fire

[Role Model]

the work starts now to get everyone i'm going with into LCD Soundsystem....

[damagedoor]

Not a big fan of the Arcade Fire day. Other two - fantastic main stage lineups. Really, really good.

[Poop_Pants]

Ill be watching Biffy, QOTSA, then throwing some shit at Axel before checking out the headliners on te smaller stages

[Dan R]

hell to the yeah!

Absolutely buzzing after this

i was expecting a dire announcement (after 09 and downloads last announcment)

but this has restored my faith in FR

18 bands i really want to see so far

Only real clash for me in blink/klaxons

oh well gonna be insane no matter who i see at this rate

[kibble]

19 Bands I'd go see= Win.

[anothernumber]

I might just be picking fault but it just seems like the last 2 years lineups repeated. About half of the lineup has played over the last two years and some in similar slots.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

18 for me and not too many clashes. Going to be such an amazing weekend.

[Role Model]

just remembered, No Offspring, guess them and Weezer would of been pushing it.

[shoptildrop]

I would go to see just GnRs and Arcade fire alone - I love GnRs and I know people have said been disappointing and thrown hissy fits but I've had the fortune of seeing them when they were amazing in 92 and are top of my best gigs list!! I am a bit nervous seeing them again as might break the bubble and disappoint as Axel is temperamental to say least, but when they play good they are good!!!

Friday (Leeds) for me is best day but there is more than enough to keep me happy as not seen a few of the bands so this is bonus for me and fact we still have all other stages yet, FR stage being a personal fav means it will be fantastic!!!

[saskofreak]

was going just for blink tbh, but some of those bands are awesome.

well surprised about NOFX.

[Lithium05]

well surprised about NOFX.

[brysnie]

19 bands for me!!!! And nearly all on the main stage, so i'll be picking out a good spot to chill ahha..now just to make sure that stewarding can be arranged for the bits which im not too fussed about and this weekend will be perfectly EPIC!

[Matticus]

decent set of headliners, saturday is weak as f**k. Looks like last years NME stage.
