Lineup 2016

[Andre91]

I'm going for GNR being announced first. 

[DomDom1984]

I asked for similar names to The Weeknd and got Macklemore and Kendrick Lamar?

Okay.

This is possibly the most feasible prediction I've seen, bar the Tame Impala ommision.

man Tame Impala are like one of my favourite bands and for me 'Currents' is one of the best releases of 2015. I think my pessimistic attitude is telling me we're not going to get them.

The Stone Roses w/ Tame Impala subbing is the dream, but one can only dream

[DomDom1984]

I'm not sure if Tame Impala will QUITE be subbing. Wouldn't surprise me of course, but I can see them being third from the top.

i'd say them not being there this year makes them almost certainties for next. prime Reading/Leeds act who've taken off massively over the past year and will be offered a high position. Main sub seems a little high for me, but hell, they're headlining arenas so i guess it isn't too outrageous

But what man is saying is that they played pretty much all the festivals they would do around R+L at the end of summer this year  , yet they didn't play R+L in that time, so now you're looking at them coming back early summer and doing their typical festies; Primavera, Hurricane/Southside, Best Kept Secret, Glasto, Werchter, blah blah and then going off touring America or somewhere again rather than just doing R+L.

I wouldn't doubt that they could scrap together a few other fests to do in that time but I'm inclined to agree that it's nothing like set in stone and perhaps even a bit unlikely. Maybe R+L can get them on the headline push on album 4.

I feel like they'd be too big for the tent; and therefore can't be justified as playing 3rd either. Think they would sub if they played.

Let It Happen is track of the year for me, love it.

I think with that it just depends on who else they've got really. They could probably play third but if they couldn't get three bigger non-headlining acts then they could sub as well.

I definitely wouldn't say NME headliner is on a par with 3rd.

[the wonderwhy]

Fully behind the idea of Tame Impala headlining

Ok....

Frank Turner too low

Disclosure wouldn't do a closing NME set - sub main the lowest they'd be

Bloc Party too high

Kodaline too high

Editors too low

[DomDom1984]

Frank Turner would be an amazing headliner for the tent. I still think he COULD sub even as a weak one, but at the same time, wouldn't be surprised by a tent headline slot, and think it'd be the best next step for him.

[oneoftherest]

New Found Glory, Real Friends, Issues, Every Time I Die, Panic! at The Disco, Memphis May Fire, Of Mice and Men and Four Year Strong.

^^^ Slam Dunk

So can rule most of them out of appearing on the pit

Kodaline and Bloc Party are big bands, Editors I kind of just chucked in last minute

Edit: How is positioning even supposed to work, Biffy can Headline, but 3rd from top is too high for Kodaline?? Kodaline are huge

Still going to hold out hope for Four Year Strong this year though.

I know this is a dreadful way of judging it but look at how many more views Kodaline has on its top Music videos than Biffy

[oneoftherest]

Kodaline aren't huge.

fair enough, not huge, but bigger than people who've been 3rd from top in the past 

[ToffeePopcorn]

Didn't know anyone really cared about Kodaline... 

you wouldn't find die hard kodaline fans (to my knowledge)

Frank Turner solo can't headline the tent, Frank and band yes.
