Gucci Piggy Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Just now, jamieaslee said: Makes sense. Who might we see sub The 1975 and Post Malone/ ToP then? Can defo still see TDCC doing it on one day as they felt the most obvious sub to me all along. Other than that I'm not sure; there's a pretty big selection of acts it could be - Catfish, Chance, Skepta, The Streets, could even just be Blossoms below the co-headliners but I think they'll headline R1.

dentalplan Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 A sub below coheadliners is just a regular third down act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaarlie Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Feel like Royal blood are too big to sub, are Architects too small for a sub slot? Especially if it's under the coheadline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dum surfer Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) would people class the streets as a sub or a third down? i always had them down for a sub but i have seen others say differently if they could be a third down i could see maybe: Foo Fighters // Bastille // The Streets // The Distillers Edited November 21, 2018 by dum surfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The All Round Ball :| Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 So I sent an email to R&L customer service about Day tickets and whether they are going on sale on Friday. I got this back: "Thank you for your email. Please be advised that this has not yet been confirmed yet. Please keep an eye on the website for further updates. Kind Regards Customer Service" WELL THATS FUCKING HELPFUL! So not a clue about day tickets. Really hope they do go on sale Friday so I can secure mine.

With a Barclaycard you can already buy day tickets so I would say most likely yes for Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally dont see any similarities besides the dad rock thing - and how many dad rockers are there at reading I think who the bands are is irellevant. If you don't like Royal Blood because they're a 'posh indie bunch' then you're inveitabliy going to be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWaters Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 The only act that Dan wilcox got wrong was Circa Waves. So I’m guessing they’ll be in another announcement? Potentially pulled out but probs just in the next announcement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dum surfer Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 do we reckon weekend tickets will sell out pretty quick this year? I'm wondering when i should consider getting my ticket or if i should get it as soon as Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad888 Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 The Streets aren't huge but they are the kind of band whos 'appearance' would draw out like everybody because everybody has heard of them. A bit like Liam Gallagher 2 years ago. He got sub to Muse on merit by being super well known despite not having much of his own to go on. The Streets subbing 1975 is a for sure to me. If they are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad888 Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) Assumption: Friday: The 1975 // The Streets // Catfish & the Bottle Men // Rat Boy Saturday: Post Malone & Twenty One Pilots // Blossoms // Dave // Two Door Cinema Club Sunday: Foo Fighters // Tame Impala // Bastille // You Me At Six And that would make it a pretty amazing 4hrs a day line up on the mainstage Edited November 21, 2018 by Chad888 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCK Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Remember that Black Keys were huge back in 2012. Also the Foos have been subbed by bands who have gone onto bigger things - Muse and KOL. Even so, Bastille returning to sub so soon after last time is one of the most underwhelming bookings the festival has made. I would much rather they headlined the NME, and had a more exciting act to sub the Foos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIchael_scarn Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Anybody find any legitimacy claims that we'd get more acts later on? Or are we presuming that the poster that has been released is what was going to be mentioned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba73 Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 I'm really hoping Blossoms will headline the tent rather than play the main stage. Doesn't feel right them sandwiched between complete different genres and would give us indie kids something to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWaters Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Trying to think where acts on the undercard announcement would be, correct me if I’ve got anything a bit off: Juice Wrld: 3rd R1 Pale Waves: 6th R1 Camelphat: Dance headliner Hayley Kiyoko: 7th/8th R1 Bowling For Soup: Pit headline Blossoms: 3rd main Billie Eillish: 3rd R1 Stefflon Don: 1Xtra headline PVRIS: Pit headline Crucast: Dance sub? (Cannot believe we’re getting Darkzy at Reading) G-Flip: not a fucking clue who is this?? Mid Fr? Early R1?? Bastille: Main sub The Distillers: Pit headline Not3s: 1Xtra headline Sundara Karma: FR headline Denis Sulta: Dance 3rd/sub The Amazons: 6th Main yungblud: 7th R1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastille: Main sub The Distillers: Pit headline Not3s: 1Xtra headline Sundara Karma: FR headline Denis Sulta: Dance 3rd/sub The Amazons: 6th Main yungblud: 7th R1 Juice WRLD could be 1 higher. Don't think he'll headline R1 though as others have suggested. Pale Waves, Hayley Kiyoko & Yungblud could all be 1 or 2 higher as well I reckon. I think Blossoms will headline R1, but 3rd main could work. Not sure I see PVRIS headlining the Pit, probably 4th/5th R1. Don't think they'll have The Distillers headlining The Pit against Foos, unless they finish early. I think they're more likely to be 4th/5th main. Sundara Karma probably around 5th main or 2nd/3rd R1, but I guess FR headline isn't impossible. The rest sound about right. Obviously I know just as much as you, it's a bit of a guessing game just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
