Festival Republic order

[Riggins]

So I keep checking back on the line-up on the official site and the line-up changes as the days go by.

Today it looks like Merchandise are headlining the Friday and Spector have been bumped down below halfway.

Same with Kate Nash playing below The Strypes and Parquet Courts now headlining. And again with Splashh headlining above BSP and artists like that. Don't get me wrong I would love these bands to be headlining it, but Splashh won't even have an album out by the time of the festival and it just seems to be rather odd.

EDIT: Just checked the other stages too, A$AP apparently opening his stage, must be a glitch of some kind

I wish this was the order. Would make everything better for me.

Edit: The Reading site now has Merchandise opening the FR on the Saturday. So they're down as playing different days at each site (as in, playing Biffy day at Leeds and Eminem day at Reading). Hmm.

When I looked the other day the Leeds lineup has Merchandise as playing the Friday and Sunday too. Very odd.

Merchandise are doing a thing in Liverpool on the Saturday, Summercamp Festival so that may be why they're opening, so they can dash over.

Tbh I don't think we'll really know until the set times are announced. I think they've allowed themselves scope to change the lineup to suit which bands are growing fastest, as its basically impossible for them to have predicted "hype" when the lineup was announced

[mrtourette]

The official site always fucks something up.

According to their website they're at Leeds Friday and Reading Sunday, which makes sense as 15 bands on the FR on the Saturday at Reading seems too many. Their original placement of fifth down between Pure Love and Frankie & The Heartstrings seems about right.

And yeah the Leeds line up page is completely screwed.

I think it's more the fact that the official lineup pages seem to have had a stroke, although I wouldn't say no to a Phoenix headline set first thing in the morning
