2012 Lineup

[lharris92]

Letlive on the main stage? Surely, surely not?

[Yellow_Fellow]

letlive should only be indoors.

[gazza_20]

I don't see why Gaslight would jump from 7th to 4th or 5th with no new material?

I didn't know about NFG, but didn't think they'd play main stage 2 years running. Maybe lock-up?

TDCC probably will due to NME tour but I'm pretty sure (correct me if I'm wrong) that someone from it didn't play once, and thought that might happen again since they've been here the past couple years.

I think letlive would be the perfect main stage opener.

[Andrinald]

I think moving up one more place is fair, with no new material (and therefore no more popularity) YET.

[huntyyy]

letlive should only be indoors.

Could it be possible for Bon Iver to headline Latitude and play 3rd main stage, similar to The National last year?

[Dukeeyyy]

Yes. Everyone has seen it. It originated on this site.

[gazza_20]

That's one hell of a lineup! But I don't know why people keep thinking Slipknot would sub. They're a Headline band and thats all there is to it really. But, this lineup would be incredible

I don't suppose anyone knows anything about Bowling for soup, angles and airwaves, deaf havana, lost prophets, enter shikari, young guns, skrillex or maybe even charlie simpson? because i've seen gig and tour dates for all these bands and none of which would clash with Leeds and Reading yet I haven't heard much about them in any rumours and wouldn't mind seeing most of them

[Dukeeyyy]

Bowling for soup - Likely maybe Main Stage low down or Lockup

angles and airwaves - Highly likely Main mid or high R1 (like PATD last year)

deaf havana - Lockup

lost prophets - Highly likely, new album in April, high mid main

enter shikari - More likely to be at Soni

young guns - Low main, mid R1, high lock up, however i think they might be high FR

skrillex - Soni apparently

charlie simpson - could happen, not sure how likely, FR maybe

[Joe williams]

Thanks I'd not thought much of them until I saw them on a fake poster but I'd deffinately enjoy seeing them

[dip]

AVA are nailed on for R&L

[Vieuphoria]

Why? weren't they complete dogshite last time? I didn't see them, I don't know. But i've not heard a good thing about them as a live act.

[Joe williams]

I've not heard anything about them so they cant have been that great

[eFestivals]

I'm pretty sure, and i'm sure Neil will clear this up for me, from what i got told, that Jay-Z and Kanye, were originally approached to play the festival, but talks broke down very early, so Jay-Z would never sub!

I've never heard anything like that.

There might be something to it, but my guess (based on Kanye not being a commercial success at another of Melvin's fests, Big Chill, last summer) is that there's zilch to it.

[LibertinesFanBoy]

Speaking as an avid Blink fan, Tom Delonge could never really sing, but now its embarassing to even listen to, he really cant sing anymore. Theyre excellent song writers, and theyve written what I believe to be some of the greatest songs of all time. Not Now, Stockholm Syndrome and Man Overboard are probably in my top 50 favourite songs. I also like some AVA songs, but Toms voice live is terrible.

[FortMorris]

Yeah, Tom Delonge is shocking live. Shame.

[jump]

Tom Delonge has confirmed that AVA will be playing festivals this summer. It's gunna have to be after the Blink tour so I hope they're likely for R&L.

[jchill42]

guns and roses are now rumored for soni - better chance of greenday for r/l surely?
