mrtourette Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Very clever with your wording, never headlined leeds then? Like I said last 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vieuphoria Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 The Prodigy were an easy go-to headliner throughout the 90's and early 00's. But then they released AONNOG which received average reviews and the band were starting to fray. Members left, and they didn't do much. It looked like they were breaking up when they released their best of. That was the lowest they've ever been really. But then Invaders Must Die happened, incredible album with rave reviews getting to Number One in the chart. They're once again big, but then they play festivals, and prove they still have it live. They still have to prove themselves though, as their still sub headliners in most people eyes. They then sell out Milton Keynes. and Download took the risk. and frankly they don't look out of place as headliners. They could, at this point, headline Reading and Leeds, easily. Especially with a new album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAD HARRY 27 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 What are the chances of like an ultimate legendary band playing? Ie. The Who, Led Zep, Rolling Stones, even Paul McCartney!? I understand it's slim as the price would be ridiculous, they would probably go straight to Glastonbury and then there's the issue with getting them all back together... But would it be impossible or is there a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWC126 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Reading tries hard to appeal to younger fans, because that's the target audience. I can't imagine them ever putting a "Nostalgia" band as a headliner. Rolling Stones are likely for Glasto next year though, I reckon.

Gucci Piggy Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 I don't have a clue about Isle of Wight, haha. I'd guess Muse if they don't play T, but T seem to like repeat bookings so I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRichards23 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) My prediction for the IOW Festival is Pendulum, Arcade Fire and The Killers to headline. That would be excellent. Or for an outside bet Lostprophets, Radiohead, The Killers with Arcade Fire headlining Glastonbury. If A7X and Slipknot headlined Download next year I would explode into extreme happiness.
