For me it has to be Grouplove. Their sound is absolutely perfect for a summer festival and they absolutely nail it live, they don't miss a beat. So much energy. Mine's Grouplove as well - I've only seen them once at Coachella in 2012 and loved them. No got around to seeing them since so Reading is a must-not-miss!

After watching their Lolla 2014 video, they seem to have a lot of onstage energy and sound very good live. I also love their discography. My other favourite bookings are Milky Chance - I've really gotten into them recently and love their overall sound - and Noisia - been wanting to see them for ages and they always seem to put on an amazing performance.

Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes for me, always a great live show and the NME tent is perfect for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontheBiff1997 Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 So Muse attempted the 'Play by Request' type thing they previously mentioned last night at a gig in Texas. The gig was broadcast on Facebook live where viewers could vote for 3 songs. The first was a choice between Bliss and Plug in Baby (Bliss won), the second was between The Handler and Stockholm Syndrome (SS won... obviously), the Third was Undisclosed Desires and Dead Inside (UD won). Just seems pointless as all 6 songs are not exactly rare so the setlist looked exactly like normal Muse gig... *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicklord Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) I think they just wanted to engage fans watching the stream. It was really interesting to watch the vote even if there wasn't anything rare in it Edited June 11, 2017 by Nicklord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelemon Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Anyone hear the new Wolf Alice track on the radio yesterday? Well it's not really new but got an official release now and it sounds even better now. The album's out end of September and there's been a European and US tour announced. Thing is the US leg ends 26th July and then they're in France at the end of October so there's a nice big gap there considering they're supporting an album. Don't know how their other festival dates line up but could be a good shout for the secret set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be in keeping with the last few years (Jamie T, Foals, YM@6) i.e. a reasonable size band that will likely play a high slot the following year. Love WA, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuielooie Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Wolf Alice could be a shout. Because YM@6 also played Ally Pally, Wolf Alice are also doing so - so could potentially headline/sub NME tent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 While She Sleeps headlining The Pit is my favourite booking of the festival. They will destroy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukey Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Architects 100% my favourite booking, and favourite band. Just a shame a majority of the crowd there won't appreciate how beautiful their music really is. Will be a special moment seen as it'll be just over a year since Tom Searle's passing.

MIchael_scarn Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Gotta be two door cinema club for me. Setlist never has a poor song on it and absolutely killed the NME last and were amazing when I saw them in February. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muppetmark Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 The kasabian accoustic set was only 35 mins. Id be disappointed with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
