2013 Lineup

[2rare2die]

I know Foo's didn't do stadiums this year, my point was they did do stadiums as well as festivals last year, so no reason why Green Day can't do the same.

I think Green Day are big enough to do both.

If Green Day played I would be one of the people to go even though I've got tickets for the Emirates Stadium... I don't think they will play though.

Blur

I reckon vampire weekend would have to sub and Foals definitely wouldn't play as low as 6th down, 4th at the lowest, could possibly play 3rd.

[the wonderwhy]

No way would Alt-J headline the NME, especially against Blur.

[gazza_20]

I said Noel as it would be an exclusive, like a few bands have done in the past. He headlines arena's, more than big enough to headline. It was either Noel or Snow Patrol.

Green Day's stadium date is in June. By the time Reading comes to announce in March, it should already be sold out. Also didn't stop the Foo's playing festivals around their stadium shows.

[the wonderwhy]

They could easily headline NME, especially if they have a new record out by then.

[sammylee]

Fair enough about Vampire Weekend but Foals only third headlined NME last time they played... I doubt they will get much bigger than that so fair enough a bit higher but they certainly aren't gonna be third from top and would say fourth from top is a stretch.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

The hype from their debut hasn't really been sustained, and I can't see them having a 2nd out by then anyway considering they're touring for the next few months. They're certainly not at the same level of popularity as any of the NME headliners for the last few years. I'd say 3rd is a reasonable place for them

Never understood the hype for Alt-J.

Breezeblocks is decent enough but the rest of the album is really dull.

Richard Hawley for the Mercury Prize imo.

i think the thing is mate, Mumford this time unlike Flo have announced and sold out there arena tour before possibly even getting booked, so FR know the draw. Flo's arena tour was a little later I think. I reckon they may headline, they could still sub at Glasto could they not? R*L might need to give them headline to keep from V, as if both are offering a sub place, V will pay more.

bands like Biffy Clyro, Jack White, Placebo, JEW, Billy Talent and Alkaline would be great to have on a Sabbath day.

You Me At Six could well headline NME. Up against The Killers wouldn't surprise me

[insideaway]

Howler are to high, don't think Shinedown would be on main and don't see Soundgarden subbing Sabbath again. Noah and the Whale and Frank Turner are to high. But good line up

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

That's way too similar to this years Download! I doubt R/L will book Sabbath with the same sub they had at Download & then book Biffy Clyro & Prodigy in high profile slots too.

Plus I can see Prodigy headlining next time they play, certainly not subbing to Biffy Clyro.
