Who is the 3rd headliner likely to be?

indeed

NME headliner seems better than a sub spot. They'd get a small crowd, so why not put them up against the younger headliner choice?

[thewayiam]

missing the joke is not what I'm doing. I didn't comment without knowing the comment wasn't pretty much a pisstake, doesn't change my intention.

I've said i have no interest with you so replying to you wasn't needed. That is my choice, my age does not enter it lol.

On something I'm more fussed about i wouldn't think nin would be Nme headers but that said going back to that guy who pretty much claimed to know, he just said biffy day with no position. It was just regarded that it would be sub but i think its very possible for both.

Think download will bag them for headlining next year as well. They are very download and would work well for the crowd into soad etc but not biffy.

Also, the Cure were a bad decision. The crowd was terrible, and with a new booker, I don't think he's going to make the same mistake as the last.

I do agree NIN are worthy headliners, and they would get a huge crowd, but I just don't see them being booked as headliners for Reading.

So Dave would've got as big as he was if he was just another guy trying to be a rock star without the status of a band he was in to start with?

People didn't just forget Dave because Kurt died.

The fact that Dave just done a film about the studio that nevermind was recorded in and got the bassist that co-founded nirvana in sound city players I think shows that he looks on that band as a huge reason towards his success

Would go down very well with a small crowd, fits in with recent headliners like fnm and atdi.

Ive only seen them once and was very disapointed, so would love another chance to see them.

The Cure were the best decision of the whole weekend.

I dunno how much is true about NIN playing that German festival, but if they do then surely they will play Reading, and having never seen them I'll be watching for sure, Id prefere if they were a main stage sub rather than NME headliner, just because I think they would pack out the tent and can't be arsed about worrying trying to get in.

I've heard elsewhere that NIN are playing Reading tho, so yeah, good times!

EDIT - Ive just found out they're defo doing that German festival.

There was a guy on the official forums about a week or so ago saying that he heard that Green Day were the third headliner and NIN were headlining the tent.

[seanthomason123]

For the love of God, please let the final headliner by The Who or RATM..

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

If NIN headline the nme it bloody better not be against Eminem.

[evilduck]

I don't care where NIN play as long as they are there. You guys have all got my hopes up now!

[luckysalt]

How do you know these things then?

When & where did you see NIN? everytime I've seen them they have been brilliant.

[Asdaprice]

NIN in the tent?.........Oh my god. That would be unreal. They better clash with Eminem.

And yeah, with Billie Joe on the due path back from rehab, I guess it could be them if thats what people are hearing. I find it weird though, giving a band a secret slot only to have them headline the next year anyway? I dunno....festival politics.....

Glastonbury around the 99/2000 mark.
