2019 festival

[MIchael_scarn]

Was thinking A$AP Rocky could be that TBC slot and is being held back because he's supposed to be a UK exclusive at Wireless. That doesn't make much sense however unless Wireless release more tickets as it was pretty much guaranteed to sell out anyway.

Looking like this for me (reading)

friday: bloxx or probably the main opener, night cafe, twin atlantic, charli, pale, wombats, circa, bit of rb then 1975

saturday: dragged to hunna, nothing really for me till blossoms, then 21p i guess, need to listen to more artists here. Also who tf are gunna are they some knockoff hunna literally used the next letter on the alpahbet?

sunday: shikari, amazons, frank carter/sundara (really hope they don't clash seems the clashfinder is pretty off for this day though) then chvrches and shikari again

I'm Yungblud TSSF, The Distillers, alternative band/food break,ADTR, Foos.

Last year's day I went was better overall, more to see but I've got a couple of important bands to see on this and in the past I've bolted at the ticket price for just a few bands. It has gone right back up from £66 with booking fee though to £82 again. 

[R Shah]

Who we thinking/do we know will headline the Pit and FR on Saturday? Not into Post or Mura Masa and wondering who to see.

Slowthai-AJ Tracey-Anderson .Paak-Gunna-Twenty One Pilots-Crucast-Post Malone

Whoops forgot to press the update button after I finished messing with it earlier lol.

Still reckon there is gonna be another act on the Sunday R1 there though...

[Mattymooz]

Sadly it appears as though the way Clashfinder handles it's highlight data has changed too (so there are only percentages now and not the raw number of highlights). Gonna make it a lot more difficult to number crunch than last year.

[jamieaslee]

Enter Shikari - The Story So Far - Sundara Karma - A Day To Remember - Foo Fighters

Twin Atlantic - Juice WRLD - Joji - Royal Blood - The 1975

AJ Tracey - Anderson .Paak - Blossoms - Post Malone - Twenty One Pilots

 

Annoyed lil uzi and tssf clash on the Friday. 

Tbh only really bothered about Anderson .Paak on the Sunday. Hoping for a decent 1Xtra headliner, maybe Pusha T?

[moz4pm]

I find this line-up offensive. It would be better if this festival just wenr out of business.

You seem upset.

[thewayiam]

@Andre91 @FloorFiller a random one but with Frank Turner not being allowed to be announced due to his yet to be finished tour, I know many think they'll be announced for Trees. Say there is a gap between ADTR and Frank Carter for Frank Turner to slip into.

[charlierc]

This looks much better than last year's.

Shame all the bands I'd want to see are too spread out though. Reading feels more like a day trip place for me than a full weekender.

Most defo, atm there isn't a band on Friday or Saturday I'd be bother to make an effort for. Could see Marmozets being added to the Foos day.

I can’t see it. Frank Carter won’t look too out of place come August, I’m sure. 

Anyway, I really love the lineup. My weekend will look like this so far: 

Enter Shikari > The Story So Far > Lil Uzi Vert > The Distillers > Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes > A Day To Remember > Enter Shikari > Foo Fighters 

Twin Atlantic > Juice WRLD > Pale Waves / You Me At Six > Royal Blood > The 1975 

I don’t like much on the Sunday at Leeds. I’ll see what else gets announced but that day looks good for shooting off early. 

[dentalplan]

Distillers > Sundara Karma > Foo Fighters

Charli XCX > The 1975

Anderson Paak > Peace

[dum surfer]

The Night Cafe - Charli XCX - Hayley Kiyoko - Joji - Pale Waves - The Wombats - Royal Blood - The 1975

AJ Tracey - Anderson Paak - Blossoms - Billie Eilish - Peace 

Enter Shikari - Lil Uzi Vert - Frank Carter - Sundara Karma - Foo Fighters

FR rate Blossoms so highly. Would seem more logical to swap them and the Wombats around surely? Ones headlining Wembley and the other Brixton. Even placed them above Don Broco at Community despite Broco also headlining Wembley.

What difference would it make? They're both playing third down?

Blossoms are a logo band an effectively a sub being portrayed at the same level as RB and ADTR. Just doesn't feel right to see them so high. Anyway....

Is there that much difference between subbing a co-headline and playing 3rd on a normal headline day?

Doesn't really make a difference though, they're still third down. They'll be playing at the same time of the day with the same set length as The Wombats. It ain't that deep.

It's more trying to fit where Frank Turner would go, he could of course be announced as the Radio 1 headliner still TBA. He may well be on an arena tour but it's fair to say it's not been hard nor is it still hard to grab a ticket.
