Could Blossoms headline Festival republic?

They would be big enough, but as a new band on the rise they would most likely be on the main stage / high NME stage

[Shaun182]

Main: Muse / Thirty seconds to mars / Korn / At the drive in / Architects / Blossoms / Rat boy / Vant / Jamie t (special opener)

NME: Fatboy slim / Jungle / Wiley / Wilkinson / Drenge / The hunna / Fidlar / The struts / Pulled apart by horses / Blaenavon / Beach slang

Dance: Craig david's ts5  Lock up: Neck deep  FR: Everything everything  1xtra: Wretch 32

Saturday:

Main: Eminem / Major lazer / Panic at the disco / Run the jewels / Rag'n'bone man / Circa waves / Moose blood / The amity affliction / Black peaks

Jamie T is exclusive to Bestival I believe. Rag'N'Bone Man, 5th on Main? What have I missed there!? The latest album from You Me At Six was the most forgettable of the year, I can't see why they weren't announced if the last one coincided slightly with their album release. Would be a really tame NME headliner. I remember a rumouring circulating that they're an exclusive to Glastonbury also.  

I don't see many people predicting it but I wouldn't at all rule out Two Door Cinema Club subbing. They're a similar size to alt-J when they subbed Mumford, and are headlining some of the medium-sized UK festivals like Parklife & Boardmasters. With three big headliners in Muse, Eminem and Kasabian I can see it happening.

30 STM are in the states until middle of August, they needs to be at Puckelpop for this to happen as they aren't coming over just for R&L, not with Jared's ego. It would also be right in the middle of two California dates which is where they live.

They're not headlining Parklife. They're subbing The 1975 there so if they subbed R&L that would be pretty weak. Also if they're doing a few medium sized festivals I'd say makes them less likely to sub. If they were an exclusive I reckon FR would have gotten away with them subbing.

Has this ever been evidenced? I thought bands just got paid more to be an exclusive rather than got a higher slot.

Anyway, I don't think TDCC subbing is outside the realms of possibility but they're not as big as alt-J, then or now, and I wouldn't predict them there.

[VCK]

TDCC will probably play 3rd, even if it isn't 2012 any more.

There's some stuff on there I'd be over the moon with. Architects, Gojira, Bury Tomorrow and Code Orange would be an amazing day. Architects will be on main though, I'm sure of it. The Muse day looks plausible, though. 

Eminem day. No chance of Ghost. And I doubt Stone Sour would play Main Stage and be that high. I don't think they'd play the festival at all, actually. Modern Baseball won't be coming over again, Brendan is in a bad place again and clearly needs to spend a lot more time getting himself in the right mind frame again before going out touring. 

That NME Sunday would never happen.

Yeah I'd take that myself tbh.

Fatboy, Offspring and JEW with RTJ before on main is decent.

[dentalplan]

Very good (or better than I'm expecting) line up. NME a bit too heavy and WHY YELAWOLF but that's a proper good go and I bet that'll do the rounds as a 'leak'.

Plenty for me on Friday & Sunday, but overall a really strong lineup - stronger than I think we'll get. A very aesthetically pleasing poster too btw, no-one does poster predictions like @Hart Attack. Good work.

I can always rely on @Hart Attack to keep me up to date with Ex-MCR band member's current projects

Frank's new project is actually pretty good. I really enjoyed the album.

Ray Toro is such a badass name. And it's the dudes real name as well. Incredible scenes.

[Foals/Disclosure]

Nice poster. Great Friday and Sunday

I'd really really enjoy this. Not sure it would be too likely. Especially how heavy it is. One notable thing is Ghost are one band I would adore being announced for main stage. Unfortunately doubt Reading would go for it.

Great band. The first album is probably better than the second. Will be glad if he comes back again.

I can't see Twin Atlantic playing any higher than 5th down main, and that's pushing it. They're playing every small festival going this summer in low slots.

Yeah I noticed they're getting pretty low positions at all these festivals. You'd expect them to be nearing the top of them if they were gonna play 4th down at R&L.

That Friday would be great but seems a little bit too heavy, as in recent years the "rock day" (using the term loosely) usually has at least one act to break things up (ASAP Rocky, Modestep, Macklemore)
