Coldplay Rock, lol.

[jump]

Wow, I only looked to see if it went number one in the UK mind. How much does it take to go platinum nowadays?

[AcademicPistol]

that is so depressing.

[Mouseboy11]

Regarding System of a Down I'd love them to headline as I've never seen them, I'm just not sure they'd fit the crowd.

[mrtourette]

Is there any such thing nowadays? when's the last time a.indie/rock/metal album sold big?

Edited August 1, 2012 by mrtourette

[jump]

Biggest surprise is how many albums Noah and the whale have sold.

[MAD HARRY 27]

By the sound of Biffy's new single it appears that it's all downhill from here. Can't see them headlining off the back of that drivel

[jonodillieono]

I thought Biffy's new song was decent.

if anyone hasn't heard it yet

[gazza_20]

Its not their best work..but its hardly drivel......Infact its quite decent!

[VCK]

Oh God Why

Speaking about all three acts, Benn told

BBC Radio 1

: "Paramore, Florence, The Black Keys - you are seeing future headliners. No question in my view. The act that plays before the headliner will get a similar expectation from the audience."

[AcademicPistol]

Since Florence will be 27 next year I reckon she'll follow in the foot steps of Amy Winehouse, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendix & co and never get the chance to headline.

[Vieuphoria]

TO be quite frank I'd much rather Florence and the Machine headline Reading Festval, than for her to down in history alongside names like Joplin, Hendrix, Cobain, Morrison and Winehouse etc.

[jump]

Of course, Brain Jones was another tragic one at that age.

[Vieuphoria]

and Robert Johnson... but he gone done did a deal wth the devil.

[AcademicPistol]

And the biggest loss of all what's his name from Friendly Fires.

[Andre91]

Robert Johnson was a fantastic artist
