2019 festival

Joey Badass and Flatbush Zombies got a new project Beast Coast playing Gov Ball. That’s in their home city so might be a one off but would be welcome at R+L.

Yes please. Too big for 1Xtra surely, with FBZ on their own headlining it 2017. 5TH/6TH  R1?

Maybe. It depends on the size of the project. Tbh with this it’s not like they’re adding two different fanbases together because it’s mostly the same fans.

Pit headliners next year surely??

This whole situation is so funny and strange if any of you haven't had a look into it, give this article a read.

"they’ve out-Hunna’d The Hunna. And for that, maybe they should be applauded?"

 

guess who's back?  

yep, Threatin.

Rather amusingly, he's playing at Camden Underworld, which is one of the venues which was slagging him off and saying wouldn't have him back.

Not only that, it's for a show in 9 months. He must be a popular guy with lots of shows booked in.

Reading future headliner?

Genius PR really, not too easy to get the press he got. 

If his music is not actually utterly shite, they’ll deffo be a market out there for him now

I’m certain no one will give a shit about him by the time that Underworld show rolls around. 

[Twizz]

What about massive attack radio 1 stage headliner

[TKOCF]

Just listened to Catfish’s new single, sounded pretty good, must be in with a shout to sub 1975 surely. 

[dum surfer]

Catfish would be a good booking to get, would like to see them subbing the 1975 if two door aren’t. Is it feasible for them to be the sub on co-headline day?

I know that ‘all publicity is good publicity’ but he has had 100% negative press and he doesn’t come out of it with any credibility whatsoever.

Other than someone buying a Threatin T -shirt to wear ironically, I can’t see anyone being interested in anything connected to the band at all, no matter how good or bad the album/ live show turns out to be.

I think it would have to be tdcc below the coheader if they had both of them, not sure if theres much point trying to make a non-mixed Friday as most people who would want to see tdcc and 1975 would probably just want to get weekend tickets. Friday is the day where they need more wildcard acts, probably would say Brockhampton should be there as its definitely going to be the weakest day for selling day tickets

Looks like the rumour of Foals dropping 2 albums could be true, can't remember who said it on here but yeah i'm so excited for this project.

Not sure whether he said EE bassist would join as a touring member or not

Yeah think we discussed that has it been confirmed? The change in backing music from 25 seconds to the end of that video made me think of EE which reminded me of the rumour about the bassist.

I didn't say that but yeah, I think the EE bit was from NME. Should be a good year for foals

Seeing them next Friday at the o2, stage design looked fucking mental last night judging by videos. Probably the best stage design I’ve seen 

[teeman89]

Would be good to see Gary Clark Jr play on main stage in Sunday. New album out in March and friends with Dave.

[Stuielooie]

Foals accidentally leaked the album release date for part 1. 8th March. 

[dentalplan]

Balls I wanted a proper double album.

[rivalschools.price]

Just heard The 1975 for the first time on MTV Rocks, safe to say I’ll be at another stage when they are on.

Yeah, he was awesome in Glastonbury a few years ago.

Cant see him playing Reading to be honest, that would (unfortunately) be the emptiest main stage crowd ever.

Looking forward to his new album though

I looked at the setlist. MAN. Banger after banger after banger. They’re also playing two of my favourite songs from the new album (How To Draw / Petrichor and I Like America...). I really want to get a day ticket for their day at Leeds because their set is going to be one big, lovely party.

It's going to be great. Notes on a Conditional Form will be out by then too.
