Reading Festival 2011

[Lithium05]

i don't know anyody listens to the offspring anymore (saying that i don't know anyone who listens to pop punk anymore as i'm 27! )

[lharris92]

the problem with the foo's is because they have a new album out next year, more or less every festival will be after them... tbh i would even go as far as betting that they maybe played glastonbury next year.... long shot but who knows o.O

I'm 25, I currently have "Americana", "Dookie", "Insomniac", "Enema of the State", "Keasbey Nights" and "MFZB" on rotation in my car. All top quality pop punk albums. I know a fair number if people who are just as enthusiastic about those bands.

See, I'd completely forgotten they still existed. I dislike The Cure - not hate them, I don't think they're mediocre - I just don't see the point of them anymore. They just seem to be a band who plod along doing nothing out of the ordinary, never changing their sound or making anything sound interesting, evolving into nothing new and then making the occasional appearance in Paris just to play <i>'Galore'</i> to a bunch of arty farty French Jazz fans and heroin addicts - then releasing the video of it.

I don't hate them at all - I have about 9 or 10 of their albums in my record collection, and a load of singles - I just think they're... well, they're like a really shit cheddar. You know, like, you give it 20 or 30 years to age and mature, let the bacteria culture and give it a unique taste, and then open it up to taste it only to discover that inside it amongst the little bacteria you have somehow managed to create a micro-civilisation who have evolved to created a tiny, miniature, microscopic, cheese-based version of this entire planet - just really disappointing.

Lost prophets headlining

Are you off your tits?

[lharris92]

changing LP and MCR would make it more realistic but it would also make me puke

oh and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts would never get that high... they have a catalogue of one song that anyone knows.

[RichieParf]

Muse say they're taking a break after this current tour, so I'd say they're unlikely. I'm going with something like My Chemical Romance, The Strokes and Green Day. Wouldnt be suprised to see a new headliner like Kaiser Chiefs or somebody instead of either GD or Strokes though.

My moneys on

(Reading)

Friday - foo fighters

Saturday - the strokes

Sunday - greenday

in fact if bookies are taking bets I'd stick a couple of quid on it!

elsewhere -

friendly fires

wombats

sum 41

rise against

babyshambles

chase and status

White lies

Florence...ergh

Mumford or frank turner could return with main stage slots

[paulomas]

yea thinking about it again, i reckon

Friday - Foo Fighters and Pendulum

Saturday - The Strokes and Interpol

Sunday - Green Day and My Chemical Romance

NME tent - Florence and The Machine on Friday and The Maccabees on Sunday, both headlining after new 2011 albums. White Lies somewhere high up after a second album. And someone more heavy like Pendulum this year to clash with The Strokes on Saturday night

Edited August 10, 2010 by paulomas

[Electricityscape]

Friday - Greenday, Lostprophets

Saturday - Kasabian, The Strokes

Sunday - Foo Fighters, The Prodigy? (Not sure if they'll be taking a break after this festival season?)

NME

Friday - MGMT

Saturday - The Gaslight Anthem

Sunday - Bombay Bicycle Club? (If their status is big enough to headline)

Anyway, just a wonderful guess at how it might be next year.

[sjp_121]

All this talk of The Strokes is getting me excited for next year now >.<

God, focus on the present

[Yellow_Fellow]

Reading

Friday

-GREEN DAY

-My Chemical Romance/Lostprophets

-Lostprophets/My Chemical Romance

Saturday

-FOO FIGHTERS

-The Strokes

-????

Sunday

-SOUNDGARDEN

-System Of A Down

-Deftones

Bit of hoping

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

Hmm strokes headlining or second from top, they could easily be in either slots

as to someone heavier I'd say not pendulum headlining nme again, bullet for my valentine would be a good shout -they've done really well this year

edit: also why do people think lost prophets will be moving up the line up by next year - I can't see them doing anything between now and then to credit this, and r&l have seen them way too many times

after watching this again, it can't be anyone else but the strokes for saturday nigh reading next year. the sound behind this song is so epic. roll on their new album

[Nathan113]

That looks really average tbf, the atmosphere looks especially poor.

[paulomas]

are you mad?

[Electricityscape]

They play it brilliant. And in their defense they are playing for a bunch of N Dubz fans.

[paulomas]

yeah its the isle of wight festival, biggest load of pussies going, but still there's a good atmosphere there without a doubt and they sound brilliant.

f**k green day foo fighters and my chemical romance bollocks. the strokes for reading next year
