2013 Lineup

[willutalk]

Considering Melvin supposedly rubbished the big four, i'm not sure he's going to have two of them back in the same year. I'm not sure I can ever see Slayer having a place at the fest again.

[Mouseboy11]

In fairness I don't think there's any doubt Prodigy are a headliner, headlined download and they're much more relevant at Reading and Leeds. New album out soon which will put them back on the radar properly.

[rug568]

surely their new album would bump them up? Really not a fan but i'm sure it would be a popular choice.

Will be interesting how they go with headliners, as last 2 ywars have had a headliner that sell out stadiums. Cant see anyone else that could sell stadiums that would headline.

The only one I can think of is Metallica, unless they went for something like AC/DC/Aerosmith/Neil Young.

I liked the way they did it this year, with a big stadium rock band, big 'indie' band and an alternative/quirky/older band. Would be great if they followed that template again.

[Mouseboy11]

I'd love for a top two of SOAD/Slipknot on one day, would be unreal!

Could go for

SOAD

Slipknot

Rise Against

Deftones

Cypress Hill

(Placings are probably wrong)

...Or maybe I should just go to download

I think you need directions to a little place called donnington park for that.

I was thinking that.

What mainstage slot equates to a nme headlining slot? About the same or lower?

[thetime]

I actully wouldnt hate coldplay headlining, I dont seeuch difference with what killers churn out to coldplay.

Quite like coldplay to be fair and it would sell tickets.

[Vieuphoria]

Coldplay were fantastic live.

Everybody loves to hate them, but they put on a good show. But I've seen them once, and have no wanting to see them again. But they'd sell shit loads of tickets and there'd probably be a good alternative on the other stages.

which is more than The Killers do. They're dreadful in all respects, no charisma, and gash songs. The only thing they've got going for them is the (blind?) laydees screaming at Brandon.

[AcademicPistol]

Seen them quite a few times over the years, first time they supported muse on a early muse tour.

[thetime]

Who'd have thought at that time that them two would go on to be the two biggest conglomerates in British contemporary music.

Coldplay also used to support Keane.
