I can't begin to understand why you'd think that, man.

Sorry to crush anyone's LCD Soundsystem dreams but I'm told they're an exclusive at Lovebox.

Same source that told you The 1975 and Jay Z are headlining R&L this year?

Is your source eFestivals? 

[oneoftherest]

I never said they were, I said that was the talk on the guest campsite

[oneoftherest]

Also.I was the one that tipped off eFestivals, also told New Order gonna headline the other stage at glasto but I think people already sorta knew that

I disagree that Biffy have gone as far as they can popularity wise. Whenever this new album comes out, I think it will push them into stadium territory. 

If they go right back to their original heavy then I doubt it, it wasn't until they went more mainstream that they made it anyway.

You have crushed my dream of LCD soundystem on the line up I am gutted as a massive fan living in the south west. I thought they will play one more festival then Glastonbury/ lovebox.  

[PastRecedes]

Is it definite that Disclosure/Foals are headlining? In recent years Reading/Leeds have often had a headliner from Glasto the year before (Arctic Monkeys/Metallica) Why not Florence or Kanye as one of the headliners?

I could still see Foals being sub-headliners

They were never had any chance of being at R&L anyway

Pretty much. Foals is a dead cert to headline anyway

I'd be more than happy with that ^^^ 

Really hoping for Tame Impala

[Biogeneric]

I was unsure about putting Tame Impala and Two Door Cinema Club as low as they are. Also Catfish seem to be a strong possibility.

Not a fan of the Friday at all, but very happy with the Saturday and Sunday!

Pretty similar to what I'm predicting for the top 3, I reckon:

RHCP, Imagine dragons, TDCC

(Closing set: Disclosure) Foals, The 1975, The courteeners

Biffy clyro, Pendulum, ADTR

[oneoftherest]

Even if half the names we've discussed make it on to the line up, I'll be over the moon, gonna be such a good line up for me this year

Tame.Impala would be so chill in a early evening main stage slot

[dip]

They'd need another big conventional 'rock' name

[conroy17]

remove Imagine Dragons, bump TDCC or Tame Impala up a place and stick anybody fucking else in 3rd and I'd have few complaints.

Coachella line up, thoughts?

ADTR would be a nice addition to that!

Can anyone see Sufjan Stevens slotting in somewhere. Been Announced for Coachella and I know that doesn't make a huge difference, but could be an interesting booking for R&L...

[mrtourette]

No. Did EOTR last year, that's his scene.

spending all your money on GnR means the rest of the line-up is pretty mediocre.

Looking forward to seeing if we have them for the same reason

It would point to why those two bands are co-heading hugely but with ID having a huge tour, The 1975 being in I think a good spot, RHCP and possibly the only live set of Pendulum in England at least, based on that I don't it would mean it has cost them too much. If Pendulum live does come here then T, R&L, V maybe and Cream would be competing and IOW is already gone. I think the act that takes that last subbing spot presuming ID is a lock will make the difference how it looks. Unless Neil has anything further, I still don't think Biffy are doing Reading either, the following year yes.
