Why is Fatboy Slim headlining Tuts a bad thing? It's the only slot I could realistically see him in. He's not a big enough name anymore to headline one of the outdoor stages. And I'd much rather see him in a Tuts headline slot than subbing David Guetta on the R1 Stage.

It's a bad thing for me personally because I'm not going to see him,not missing Kasabian.

And your off yer head if you think he's not big enough to headline radio 1.

Best set for me was Pendulum on NME in 2011, unreal set.

That was efffingggg wild! I came out of that with numerous injuries ha. Great set.

I think it was 2009 when they last played King Tuts. THAT was mental. Absolutely insane. 2011 was good too but not quite on the same level. I would probably have RATM as my favourite headline set with Levellers in Pet Sounds as my favourite ever T performance.

My point is Stuart says he's not big enough to headline radio 1 when he 100% is.

I'd agree with that.

He might be big enough to headline a 2nd stage at a different festival but with T's demographic, I can't see him doing anything bigger than what he's doing (the KT headline slot). Look at the dance acts who have headlined the Radio 1 stage over the last few years - Swedish House Mafia, David Guetta, Calvin Harris. They're all DJs who were at the top of their game (or were about to hit their peak in Calvin's case). Fatboy Slim's heyday has passed. Skrillex headlined King Tuts in 2012 and I'd argue that he was bigger then than Fatboy Slim is now. A headline slot for Fatboy Slim on the Radio 1 Stage would be seen as a very weak booking in my opinion.

Fair enough,still think tuts is nowhere big enough for him and there's going to be a lot of disappointed people .

Slam have said there line up is getting announced on Friday and they have a belter in the pipelines.

Hoping for someone like leftfield.

Had a wee shot at stage splits, haven't included the T Break stage so could be completely off with some placings. I do think there could be someone announced for Sunday who could potentially headline King Tuts w/ Above & Beyond as sub, plus some more pop acts for Radio 1. Hoping the Slam Tent lineup is decent so I have something to do during the day for most days.
