I would go as far to say that this would be the worst R&L lineup of all time!

I NEVER want to see The Vaccines play that high....

Better get used to it because they'll be headlining in a couple of years...

They might not, they fail before they get that high...hopefully

Just a question, have Coldplay ever played Reading and Leeds? Haven't bothered to check. I don't really like them much myself, but I can see Melvin asking for them after they finish their hiatus/break. They might have new music to promote next year, and personally... People are going to want to see what mainstream act follows eminem. Coldplay could fit that bill.

Reaally cant see Coldplay ever playing R+L...they're a band suited far more to Glasto/V etc..

I really think reading is stating to break free of the demographic they are almost tied to, it's obvious every year they are slowly trying to change the festival.

They've played before but it was years ago when they were much, much smaller. Coldplay aren't big fans of festivals besides Glasto and they prefer to do their own shows so they can sell their tixs on Viagogo as they are c**ts but I can see them possible playing one day (not that I'm saying it's likely) simply because they are one of the few UK staduim acts to have not headline and R&L is after Glasto (arguebly IOW too but is was canned for decades) the major UK fest.

Rita Ora will probably make an appearance one day, God help us all..

[thetime]

Dont see the problem with coldplay myself, one of those bands I find enjoyable live....Not as cool as muse obviously.

Muse aren't cool anymore.

[thetime]

Muse aren't cool anymore.

Cooler than me.

[dancelittleliar]

However much you hate Coldplay, it's difficult to deny they're an excellent live act. The hate FR would get for booking them would be astronomical though, so I doubt it'd happen. They'll probably play V next year or something.

[mrtourette]

Coldplay opened the NME tent the one and only year they played, before their first album was out.

[Dead throne]

Coldplay can fuck off. Fucking c**ts. Their fans are c**ts too, because they think that they're the best band in the world, while it's pwetty clear that they're NOT.

[the wonderwhy]

I think Coldplay would get a similar reaction to Eminem. Some would be disgusted- but plenty more will snap up tickets.
