Not if they tweet „8 PM TONIGHT“ tomorrow morning.

Dunno why rage... a band who carefully pick and choose which shows they play (preferring to play less shows in comparison to lots of shows) are being compared to Muse who play pretty much everywhere and anywhere.

Rage don’t want to be a stadium band, and they never have been. To Rage their idea of touring is playing a handful of dates globally and then vanishing for 10 years.

Ah OK, so there’s still a chance for tomorrow

Not too long ago my teacher held a song quiz in lesson and no one except me knew Killing In The Name Of, and I only knew it bc my parents are super big fans (even seeing them at Reading back in 2000). I think they'll only really pull an older day ticket crowd tbh. Was hoping for mcr personally but i wouldn't mind sitting and chilling during a RATM set this year, they do seem to put on a good show

I'm 17 and went to Reading 2019 with about 50-60 people from my year all pretty close together in orange camp. 

Literally none of my lot were interested in Foos, but weren't fussed cos one of 2 things:

Bastille were on

They could getaway early on Sunday night

Honestly, most people I knew who were there knew about 5 Post Malone songs and Billie Eilish. Maybe Chocolate and Let's Dance To Joy Division for good measure. They all had the absolute times of their lives, probably saw abt 12 acts on average the whole weekend.

Absolutely convince so many youngsters will book a ticket gladly not having a clue who RATM are, and weekend tickets will sell out in usual time.

I wouldn’t rule out anyone, unless you know for sure they’re somewhere else.  I still think we’ll be surprised....

They may not even tweet before the announcement - they have said next week so we may just get the announcement next.

I literally only know 1 song, my dad will probably make me listen to their discography before Reading if they're announced though

What. Really?

I kinda presumed you were like thirties, thats mad. 

[Tom Connolly]

just for one second can we all chill. other than Dan and that radio six dj do we have anything else that points to RATM?

Nope, don’t think so

Rock en Seine, changing festival dates so they have a gap in the middle of the festival - Saturday, Sunday, Monday are the music dates.

I suppose Settle For Nothing is quite a chilled song, by their standards.

I can hope but I really don't think there's any chance of MCR at this point. I did get VIP tickets to see them at MK but it would still be sick to see them again at RANDL

[Matt42]

How do I put this delicately. You must also remember that old school / older rage fans are probably like me with full time jobs now. Some will probably have enough money to pop over to reading solely to see Rage.

the same argument is made about old school MCR fans.

A rage fan who wants to see them on this reunion tour will be willing to drop dough to make it happen. They won’t care about anyone else on the lineup. It will just be a bonus if there is a good support.

Not to my knowledge, but Dan has a very good track record in the past. And the DJ is a case of no smoke without fire, surely he wouldn't make a comment like that if there wasn't something to prompt him.

Yes I got tickets for MK and then they announced Dublin so I had to do it all again on ticketmaster the following Friday !

If you could book the Rage day yourself, realistically, what would it be? Mine would be: 

Rage Against The Machine / Architects / IDLES / Run The Jewels / While She Sleeps / Denzel Curry / Fever 333 / Ho99o9 / Dream State 

Plenty of other acts with political messages of varying intensity throughout the day.

I’d quite like Run The Jewels and a couple of other hip hop acts.

[cal321123]

The Used are coming to Europe briefly in May, does this rule them out for RANDL?

Tool to sub.

Not really though about the other acts though tbh

EDIT: Oh, you said 'realistically'. As you were.

This would be unreal
