Lineup 2018

[TheDHolford]

Seeing Frank Turner in Sheffield tonight, first time seeing one of his proper live shows despite the fact I've seen him three times at different festivals. Would be disappointed if he doesn't make an appearance at all at Leeds festival, he always adds something great to the day whenever I've seen him. And his new songs are sounding pretty decent as well.

I'll be there tonight too. His own live shows are always great.

Can’t wait for it, hoping it’s not too busy as wont get down till around half 8 ish. But not too fussed about supports so hopefully will be a good show!

Is this a hint from Frank Carter that they'll be at R&L again?

I don't see where he'd fit to be honest. There might be a gap on Saturday above (or below?) Skindred. Otherwise I can't see him playing the same slot as last year.

Yeah I guess, maybe a secret set would be possible?

Frank sold out Brixton. He isn’t  opening main stage unless it’s billed as a ‘special guest opener’. I could see him slotting in above Skindred once Slam Dunk is done.

Skindred played Brixton, don't know if they sold it out but I'd have thought they're a bigger band. I'm hoping he does what Broco did last year.

Perform under a pseudonym on the Lock Up? Gallows did that in 2010 mate. 

I think it's possible but they might be looking at secret sets from bands who have just come back or are about to, rather than ones who have already played on this album circuit (although that's what Gallows did). Slotting in above/below Skindred seems more likely if he is gonna appear, but I don't think he necessarily will just based on that tweet.

Maybe Frank Carter's the new Frank Turner. Only needs 7 more years.

Mike Skinner (the streets) said last night that he might be announcing something big next week. What are we making of that? Any idea where and if the streets could fit into the lineup?

I WISH they'd play R&L but they won't :/. Definitely a new album on the way I'd say with the amount of singles recently.

Sure there will be a new album, but he did say last night 'if you aren't seeing me at Brixton, keep an eye out next week' or something very similar, so really does hint at live dates. Wether this is reading or not is up to debate, but definitely live dates and an album coming up.

Ahhh right okay. Hmm not really any UK fests with big enough slots left :/ It's either going to be a winter tour or his own little festival day thing I'd say.

[dentalplan]

Yeah I can’t see where he’d play. Unless he was a special guest at something. Winter tour sounds a safe bet.

[JSmurphy]

So Drenge are now a four-piece, who knew? Shame neither them or the excellent support band Kagoule will be at R&L this year.

[dentalplan]

Point her out so I can bag her if they just bring her to me
I ain't even see the face, but she got beautiful boobies (wow)

- Post Malone, 2018

[dentalplan]

(wow)

[kingcrawler]

Wow!!

[MIchael_scarn]

Most impressive thing about B&B is that he got a feature from G-Eazy in which he only said he's gonna take my girl ONCE, mad.

[rivalschools.price]

Stray from the Path are pretty low down on  the Avalanche stage in Download yet just before the headliners in the Pit.

Maybe there’s a couple of bands yet to be announced to play above them
