Who is the 3rd headliner likely to be?

[guitarbhoy1888]

Just imagining 'Reading & Leeds Festival' transferring £1 million into an account named 'The Who'

[FloorFiller]

in the past i would've said no way is it The Who, but after The Cure last year it may well could be. still seems unlikely though, i'd say. i doubt the majority of the R/L crowd would really go for The Who (plus SOAD into The Who seems bizarre in my head)

[the wonderwhy]

almost as comical as 'arry redknapps dogs account...

And they've got 9 UK dates in June.

[Com Truise]

If it's The Who I would lose my shit, in a good way

[Luke Routledge]

Them nine summer dates seem to rule them out for me. They would be a sick headliner though!

[seanthomason123]

The Who are one of the only headliners people wouldn't moan about, would definitely make sense to book them.

[dancelittleliar]

That would be extremely unlikely - it wouldn't go to the bands name it would go to their accountant group or label if anything? And is it account as in monetary or social media?

Dire Straits (minus Mark Knopfler ) holding concert on March 9th.. don't think they've been mentioned

[mrtourette]

Seriously though if it's The Who I'll take a big bowl of eggs and smear them all over my face. A fucked-up booking for R&L.

[Muppetmark]

the who's tour is quardraphenia so I'm hopeful

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

If we're going outside the box for a curve ball headliner Neil Young would be much better than the Who.

Long time watcher first time poster.

I would shit a brick if it was the who

Better IMO headliner than the aforementioned green day/rhcp/lp etc.

And if its a "greatest" hits set instead of quadrophenia, or even if it was quadrophenia it would sell a hell of alot of tickets/day tickets, more so than the rest mentioned. Again IMO

That's what people said about The Cure.

The people who bought tickets to them at their own gigs in the Summer aren't going to rush out and buy tickets to see them at R&L with a load of bands they haven't heard of surrounded by teenagers.

[Gucci Piggy]

Best curveball for me would be Depeche Mode. Still hoping that Melvin was talking shit and it is them.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

SOAD into the Who doesn't make any sense anyway... surely if they were going to play they'd fill the day with "lad" type bands: the Courteeners, Miles Kane, Beady Eye, The Enemy, Ya know the sort of bands that think it's still 1965.

[sjseabass]

I think The Who would be a decent booking, but only if they could get them for cheap enough to get two big current headliners alongside them (like with The Cure last year). I'm assuming they'd be more expensive than The Cure though.

Not in a year when they're doing loads of summer shows either. Maybe next year.
