atdi playing london in march. 

100% going, wanted to go to the Roundhouse for ages now and the next day is a bank holiday.

They are touring East Coast America though during Download and they would only probably play Sunday at Glastonbury if they were which I'm not expecting. I think with just that Irish and Dublin date though that R&L is nailed on but I'd still rather see them inside.

R&L will definitely start shaping up nicely if ATDI end up there. Would be a must-see, though I don't regret seeing Kasabian over them in 2012, I'm still a bit gutted I missed them.

I'm in the same boat and going to Brixton wasn't really convenient. It's not worth risking if R&L doesn't have GNR and is bull as that's virtually the only header I think that will make me pay the weekend fee.

I don't have the effort to organise going anywhere abroad this year so I've pretty much settled for Leeds already whatever the headliners. GnR would be cool but I don't think it'll happen. Chilis (and the almost certainty of Foals) is already a good start for me, if Biffy, Kanye or Muse are the last headliner I'll be set.

Biffy would probably do it as well, the other 2 won't which is why I need to go Roundhouse. A day ticket is too far away too.

If IOW had GnR I can't see why hold it back, Coachella and Vegas now have their dates out there.

Is the reason that R&L have brought the announcement forward (in contrast with previous years) to Jan, because it's someone that has either;

  1. Already been announced at another festival(s)
  2. In line with any recent announcement by the band/artist (I.e. world tour, new album etc.)

Thoughts?

Not really. The 2nd headliner has been announced at this point now for the past 3 years, which was when they started to announce bits of the line up before March.

They were all Feb.

But last week of Jan rather than first week of Feb is hardly a change in approach.

It's not, but they did make a big deal about it being sooner than expected.

R&L Facebook just confirmed announcement is coming next week.

Ah okay, so there's barely a change at all then. Guessing it'll be Friday?

Yeah I guess it'll be Friday at 09:00 like the last announcement, they seem to have abandoned the old announcement method, Radio 1 around 19:00, kinda makes sense since Zane Lowe's now left and the lineup typically leaked earlier in the day anyway.

Might be, might not be. Might become clearer when they announcement comes, but probably not. Ultimately not worth thinking about.
