it could happen, I'dont think geoff will risk Prince as a headliner

Remeber not even Beyonce headlined which is far more popular with T crowd then Prince.

Very little chance of Prince playing, and he would demand a headline spot if he did, I'm sure his booking history would put T off also

Yeah I can see Mumford into The Killers fitting both TITP and R&L.

With Babel doing as well as it's doing both here and the US i think mumford and sons as a sub headliner is a safe guess

the same with vaccines.

its not a very good thought but like it or not, in an album time they'll probably be big enough and successful enough to headline ...

[craig94]

To be honest i look at the thought of Mumford and Sons headlining and i get the image of all the debate of whether florence would headline last year and tbh i see biffy as more likely as the friday night headliner with mumford and sons subbing or headlining the NME stage

As much as I despise the idea of Vaccines headlining, I agree, it won't be long until they do. Same with Mumford. I'd still put them as a sub this year though.

Thats a good thing isnt it? New headliners, better than the old predictable headliners. Its perhaps why festivals are struggling ticket wise as the headliners are the same headlibers for the last 10 years. Muse, coldplay, foo fighters and even further back the likes of blur whos best days were 15 years ago.

Teh future is a very bleak one if Bumfords and Vaccines are seen as having headliner status.

I think there's a difference between having a new headliner and forcing through a band as headliner. With Muse, Coldplay etc it was a natural progression but with acts like Darkness & Razorlight where it was rushed they just collapsed afterwards.

it's no bleaker than it was when they had The Killers, The Darkness, Snow Patrol (each time), Eminem, KoL, The Verve, RHCP, The Strokes, Oasis, Stereophonic, and Texas.

So, do you reckon Mumford and Sons are going to be headlining festivals of this size next year? I.e, T and Reading/v?

I think the possibility is very strong.

The album has sold fantastically well and they've avoided tarting themselves around every UK festival this year (They only did Rockness, I think), so people aren't bored with them or particularly see them as a repeat.

In a world of festivals where there's very few 'fresh' acts to headline, they're one of the fresh acts.
