Lineup 2015

[peruvianjoco]

Any chance that Libertines co-headline with another band?

[Gucci Piggy]

Doubt it.

Like who?

[peruvianjoco]

Like who?

I don't know but they did it last year, and Paramore are much more well known and a bigger band than the Libertines...

[Hart Attack]

Like who?

...Mumford & Sons?

[supreme]

...Mumford & Sons?

If it were to be Mumford surely they would of announced the libs at the same time? (That is if it them)

[Yellow_Fellow]

...Mumford & Sons?

lol

[Gucci Piggy]

Everything about this sucks.

[MONTHEBIFF2013]

What's the chances of maybe black stone cherry subbing Metallica? Hoping the Offspring get booked too what with their new album coming out later this year.

[dentalplan]

Black Stone Cherry wouldn't sub at R+L. They'd be much lower down. I think The Offspring could well play though.

[ToeJaylor]

Am I the only one who was confused that BSC did an arena tour?

[conroy17]

toejaylor, you are not the only one

[Gucci Piggy]

I don't think real people actually listen to BSC.

[dentalplan]

They all look like they have a BSc.

[conroy17]

I seem to remember BSC playing Manchester academy in 2012 and failing to sell it out

strange that they decided to play an arena in the same city just two years later

Disgustingly bad.

It surprised me a lot also. Done some digging and the arena actually appears to have been pretty full for their gig https://crimsonhorror.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/review.jpg. Apparently the Birmingham and Glasgow gigs sold well also.

A possbility for 4th on Metallica day maybe

Looks like Weezer are ruled out of GF, really think, despite wishing this every year, we could get them this year at R/L

[lightning1000]

There was a 9 year gap between weezer appearances last time. Don't put any money on it, they really don't seem to like making the trip to the UK.

Nah they just wouldn't play.

Europe, rather. They've done UK a lot more than any of the rest of Europe.

There's a lot of festivals around R+L that they suit quite well so I reckon there's a decent shot of them turning up late summer and at R+L. There's also a decent chance of them staying in California and playing the opening of an Apple store or something instead though.

Sorry to bring up the libertines again must be sick of hearing about them by now but i really do think they would be to weak as a main headline especially with this new demographic which they are forcefully pushing through by getting annoying acts like Macklemore and putting him way to high up so he has to do the same song twice. Just wondering what people thoughts are only the actually likeliness of The Libertines and if you don't think they're headline material who would be the third headliner, only thing i can think of would be RHCP (new material out towards the end of this year) or prodigy and chase and status i know Rebel Sound are at reading already so they would already be onsite to be able to do a chase ans status performance...

Just thought about the possibility of Kings of leon?

[conroy17]

nah its going to be the libertines

[Gucci Piggy]

The Libertines are TBC on here so will definitely be there, and they'll definitely headline now that they're headlining T. The Libertines will probably be the most popular headliner of the three, as well.

RHCP don't seem like they'll be touring this Summer. Th Prodigy are headlining Isle of Wight so won't be headlining R&L (and they're probably not bigger than The Libertines). Chase and Status wouldn't headline and again are smaller than The Libertines. KOL would be a possibility but, as said, it's The Libertines.
