Who is the 3rd headliner likely to be?

[Andre91]

Ideally I would like the final headliner to be Metallica or RATM, but The Prodigy would be amazing. Just not Sabbath.

[Gucci Piggy]

If Sabbath were announced I don't think I'd be able to cope. Have to see them.

[Buko]

I'm hoping the last headliner will be a complete oddball, like GNR in 2010.. except good.

[the wonderwhy]

I reckon Sabbath's 'talks' were probably something to do with another LN show

[dancelittleliar]

They'll probably just pick a massive farm, stick a stage there and sell a ridiculous number of tickets. South of England would be my guess, maybe Cornwall

[dentalplan]

Are there any heavy bands headlining in Europe other than Prodigy and the acts at Download?

Arcade Fire.

[the wonderwhy]

It's blatantly going to be Depeche Mode subbed by SOAD

I've decided it's the pixies! One of the last to sees on my list, so it's them!

[the wonderwhy]

I'm thinking the last headliner is going to be someone that will drum up a lot of hype, especially with the younger, Radio 1 lot given they're going to announced with the rest of the line-up now?

Doesn't necessarily mean they have to be 'big' like Blur or AC/DC, but I think its going to have to be someone more exciting than Sabbath.

[kaosmark2]

SOAD into Arcade Fire.

[Gucci Piggy]

If you rearrange the title it becomes "3rd Headliner Is Likely To Be The Who".

Thinking it might be a shock and be Arctic Monkeys.

Matt Helders (drummers) mum was asked on Twitter if she could confirm or deny them playing at reading and she said she couldn't confirm or deny. If they weren't doing it she could surely just deny?

Obviously it's not proof of anything but I live in hope OKAY!?

I won't go over my views on The Prodigy again. But I'm hoping it won't be them.

Sabbath or a band of similar stature for me please.

[Bobs]

Of course there's going to be all that, except with the added bonus of stabbings, rape, theft and fights on the Eminem day

[Reading Local]

Mumford can now be ruled out of playing (& have been removed from the list now) as they are doing a Gentleman Of The Road stopover weekend in Canada 23-24 August

[alex28]

Hmmmm its a tricky one this. I would say if Biffy are headlining the Friday then Blur are the most likely for Sunday. However, if Biffy are closing the festival I would expect Sabbath/Prodigy Friday. Wouldn't surprise me if Green Day closed the festival with Weezer and Fall Out Boy underneath? Too many options atm

[thetime]

Like others have said prodigy is the most likely.

I think it will be the Arctics, they are playing a few festivals in Europe and they have just announced a short tour in America. Surely they wont leave the UK out? Also I dont think they will play Glastonbury until their new album comes out.
