2013 Lineup

[gazza_20]

Rockness & Bestival are more likely.

[thetime]

If so it will easily be lineup of the year !!

Here's another poster, tried to be very realistic this time

About Vampire Weekend playing 2nd, i genuinely think it could happen, 1st 2 albums so successful critically and commercially, they toured arenas etc. I also think because of R&L's tendency to give bands a push it could happen, look at some recent subheadliners like 30stm, they are way bigger than them, and R&L let them play 4th after 1 album so clearly they like them. Either way i'm obviously open to criticism but thought i'd pre-empt some of the argument

Wu-Tang playing Glastonbury next year again according to their tour dates, nothing about R+L there though

Edit: Nevermind, old tour dates

Yeah, VW are pretty huge, I'd imagine they'd be capable of playing 2nd. I'd probably swap NATW with The Maccabees on that poster, and the only other problem is Slash looks a bit out of place

...There aren't any festivals in the UK that book acts like that! I wish Reading would go back to booking a mixture of Indie and heavier acts like it used to. Greenday/Blur/Rammstein are 3 awesome headliners and I can't think of a UK festival that would put all 3 of them on!

I think that's the appeal with European festivals, most countries will probably have one or two big festivals and are therefore able to easily book the big touring headliners because they won't be playing anywhere else in that country. Take Optimus alive, tiny festival in comparison to British ones and it had The Cure, Stone Roses and Radiohead headlining!

I think a problem with British festivals is that the market is over crowded and it's hard to book all the biggest bands as they'll be at other festivals, also leads to seeing bands who do festivals in Britain every year.

Bit premature, comeback and say that in march.

[thetime]

Just reinforce that though with the fact that blur are possibly my favourite band still on the planet and I absolutely love green day and daft punk

So for me it probably would

Did a poster. Thoughts?

I realise my FR subs are arguably strong, but looking at last couple of years, I think it's growing as a stage.

I seriously doubt that Dizzee would be in the same spot that he was in '10, he'd be a sub i reckon. Jack White leading into Blur on the Sunday night would be dreaaaaaaaamy though.

[guitarbhoy1888]

they're playing academy venues on they're latest tour. and haven't sold out.

Can't see why Deftones would drop down a spot from last year.
