Lineup 2020

[jumperofftheshelf]

I think one of Eminem/Stormzy/Travis (if his plans have changed) are certain, I can’t see them not booking a rap headliner

[fraybentos1]

Love how Gorrilaz are apparently in the running despite never playing the fest and having 0 tour dates announced

And that guy did post saying he was French in June 2019, so there's a sliver of legitimacy to it. 

That being said, I think R&L are getting Eminem. 

My god if we get Eminem and Rock en Seine get RATM....

They’re realising music currently. I think they’ll be touring this summer but I’m not sure if I can see them playing reading

I think we’ll have one off Gorillaz, MCR and Rage

But each with a different scenario

Gorillaz/LG/Biffy//BMTH

MCR/LG//The Strokes/Eminem or Stormzy

RATM/LG/Eminem or Stormzy 

very specific prediction lol

you'd be quicker listing all the bands in the world you don't think will play.

It's even more of a shame looking at all of these reasonably exciting options that they decided to waste a headliner slot on Liam Gallagher. At least he took it into his own hands to get rid of any potential excitement for a brilliant full set of headliners.

As for Gorillaz, said it many times, but it's one I just can't see ever happening. They are far more likely to produce their own Demon Dayz Festival. I would love to be proven wrong because I love Gorillaz, but I can't see it.

[Matt42]

So we are all up to speed then because people think I’m talking rubbish how about I present them some facts.

- Dan said RATM

- He then said a different set of headliners.

- A Radio 6 host talked about Rage against the machine being announced for reading and Leeds.

- A Pittsburg radio station has tweeted the rage against the machine logo. Hinting towards rage announcing some more dates to their tour.

- Rock En Seine have an announcement tonight. A french publication has posted that it “could” be rage against the machine.

- Rage against the machine posted a new graphic on their Instagram of a tour poster ripped up.

- A user in the rock en Seine thread is claiming that Rage are being announced tonight.

But of course all of this is just rubbish rubbish rubbish. Any talk of rage is just people pulling stuff out of their arse. I’m also chatting bollocks and there’s nothing to back up anyone’s excitement. 

[Dangerbreaks]

Just watched a bit of Eminems set from Reading 2017. Didn't expect it to be so painful to watch - what's happened to him?! He can barely make it through a couple of lines without the other guy (not sure if he's well known or just some Eminem support) having to fill in for him. No thanks. 

[CG31]

Part of me wants to wait and come back on tomorrow at lineup time

But ik they’ll be another 20 odd pages to get through by then

[OnlyRevolutions]

Think they could get away without having a rap headliner this year, if we're believing any of what Dan has been saying he said that there's a lack of guitar bands on the mainstage, this could make up for the lack of a rap headliner + if they don't have any guitar bands headlining the R1 Tent then the people that aren't a fan of rock have somewhere other than 1Xtra/Dance to end their night

Could it mean that originally it was only those dates and now it's changed to more dates?

Actually not a bad theory

No idea.

Also they need to do some sort of tour announcement soon as some of the dates they already have announced don’t have a venue yet. The Mexico one I think!

Someone asked who could be 3rd down and potentially go on to headline...

Do we think IDLES could, provided their next 1-2 albums are as good as Joy?

Idles headlining in a few years would be an absolute dream, personally I think they deserve it more that any other act I can think of. Their fanbase is growing by the day too.

[R Shah]

Queens of the Stone age are gonna be the headliner nobody expected. 

[defender4]

any chance of SWMRS being there this year? anywhere?

[a6l6e6x]

My prediction. This thread will hit 400 pages before we have a line up

Currently i'd say they're a bit too niche, nothing of theirs has ever charted and for somebody to go on to headline they need to be in the mainstream, can't see it ever happening to be honest
