I think Shikari have ruled themselves out.

Smashing Pumpkins said something bitchy in an interview recently about a festival trying to book them below one hit wonder bands. Can't remember the quote exactly but it sounded like they may have been talking about R&L, so that'd make them more unlikely.

Edit: And yeah, I'd say Vaccines/Two Door/Alt-J to sub Libertines.

He implied multiple festivals but I don't seem to remember much that could identify it as R&L, it was posted in the Crap bands thread if anyone wants/can be bothered to check.

It didn't sound any more like R&L than any other fest

Also, yeah, Shikari have confirmed they're Download only

Ah okay I couldn't remember the quote. I just remember us saying it made them less likely and assumed the quote made it sound like R&L. But yeah what other UK fest would be offering them a slot below one hit wonder acts? Maybe T wanted them as their token one good act per year a la Pixies and MBV/Kraftwerk (okay two acts that year).

I guess R&L must have offered them 3rd down below BMTH.
