Wouldn't be surprised at both.

What relevance has the music scene in 2009 got to do with 2013?

*two years

Laugh away, going by your tearful responses to this thread I understand T allot more than you do gramps.

The only chance of a non dance act being on the NME is if Biffy Clyro headline it, you can bookmark this and come back to it but either way it's true.

Deadmau5/The Prodigy/Avicii/Chemical Bros, at least two(maybe 3 if Biffy don't sub) are a stick on to headline the Nme.

There's shit loads more. Hell if we're going to do American Record sales then we could drag out the whole country catalogue too including Dolly Parton. Mumfords are the best on the line up so far and they're a one trick pony tribute act. Sad times.

The Killers - Playing.

Blur - Not doing UK fests.

The Strokes - Didn't headline last time can't see them doing it this time.

Whilst some of the bands mentioned may not be likely the original point was that M&S are one of the biggest bands in the world, not just for T's demographic which I was arguing against.

Also, if Rage can headline, why not Metallica or Linkin Park? Probably more mainstream than Rage were.

Sorry, but none of those acts are anywhere close to being the biggest touring acts in the world.

The acts booked are strictly third-division compared to the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters, U2, AC/DC, Metallica etc.

Who says that the majority of people going to T are into Pop? Ticket sales will tell, I suppose.

There are currently zero bands announced that I would pay to see, and I go to lots of gigs.

Should a few be announced on one day I might consider a day ticket, but for now I'm out.

People are not thinking about the bigger picture in this discussion of who is massive and who would sell more tickets.

Like them or not but m+s are massive at this moment for the demographic that t appeals to. The vast amount of t goers last year that filled the stages for shite like rita ora, example, nicki minaj do not want bruce springsteen, u2,arcade fire,fleetwood mac, prince, who etc.

On top of that, why would df book springsteen when they know they can annouce a separate hampden gig that will sell out and attract the correct crowd. Going to a tuesday night gig in summer is very different to a weekend at t. The same could be said about any of the above.

So, i dont agree that mumford are bigger than springsteen, but to the t market they are. Its a generalisaton, but i think its accurate.

I think people need to realise that T is not HRC or Download Festival, it never has or never will be. Do not mention Foo's, they played last year and not even a fest that has has AC/DC and Metallica has had them.

ultimately it's a shit lineup as a few hundred don't like the acts, there is 85k that go
