Coldplay

does anyone else feel this way? i for one would love them to play next year!

it would be a strong set of headliners if it was

Kasabian or Bloc Party (at least one of these 2 will play)

Coldplay

Foo Fighters (who are pretty much guaranteed)

I can't ever see FR booking them. They went down surprisingly well at Glasto and T, though I thought they were pretty dull, good sing along but not much more for me

I love Coldplay but doubt they'd do Reading&Leeds

[jazz565]

I think if they played they would go down amazing! similar to Arcade Fire in a way

[mrtourette]

It sounds horrible but you'd be better off trying another festival if you want to see them, in the same way that if you want to see Rammstein or Machinehead headline you'd be better off trying Download or Soni.

They're just not the right type of headliner for R&L.

From what I saw on the highlights they did look pretty good at Glasto but I really can't see them playing R&L.

They would never ever play. Demographics etc.

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

They were very good at Glasto this year, especially for a band I quite disliked. They're not the perfect fit for r&l but they will shift the tickets, which will appeal to melvin.

I was suprised to see them headline rock am ring this year.

[Bisque]

More likely to do V than R+L imo, purely based on demographics.

That light show at Glastonbury was incredible.

They completely won me over with there glasto set aswell, my sister saw them at Pink Pop aswell and said they were amazing despite her not really being a fan. Like most have said they wont play R&L.

Incredible live act, saw them back in 09 at Old Trafford CC, blew me away totally!

[MEGABOWL]

They're an excellent live band, can't see them doing Reading/Leeds though, not sure they fit really. More of a Glastonbury type act.

You've just compared Jesus to Titus Bramble.

[mrtourette]

I doubt Jesus could do some of things that Titus Bramble has done on the football pitch. Water into wine is one thing but some of Bramble's cock-ups defy belief.

They'd be great at R+L and I think it could happen. I think that they would sell a lot of tickets and pull a big crowd.
