Lineup 2020

[Andre91]

It’s being speculated that Kanye has a new album out at the end of September. Now that would be one hell of a hip hop headliner. 

[Jericode]

Slipknot / Kanye / Green Day would be a top trio in my opinion.

He's long overdue an appearance at R&L I think.

Needs an indie headliner. Sub Green Day out for The Strokes and you’ve got my dream headliner trio. 

[Tom Connolly]

Can someone in all seriousness explain to me why Tame Impala are not considered big enough to headline Reading and Leeds?

Serious answers please because I feel like I might be clouded with my own bias.

Probably unable to answer due to bias too, but I'm genuinely surprised people don't think they are good/ big enough

I'm not a huge fan of The Strokes, but I'll agree they'd be a better choice in the proposed trio.

[robillustrates]

BMTH/Tame Imapala, The Strokes and Stormzy would make a good set of headliners.

Got my standing Slipknot tickets today after a solid 45 mins of will or won't they be sold out.

[Andre91]

Slipknot seems to be selling like hot shit.

Definitely see them headlining now.

[Dukey]

Yeah Slipknot tickets are flying out - I think they'd be a superb headliner.

Starting to feel Slipknot - The Strokes - Stormzy or Kanye would be an incredibly strong 3 headliners.

Kanye bringing his A Game would be something to behold.

You may have to open it up with GIMP as that's what I've used.

[foolee]

Can't see Slipknot doing it if I'm honest, think that'll be it after the tour. 
Currently thinking it'll look something like this

Liam Gallagher - Stormzy/Billie Eilish - Blink-182/BMTH

Seen Kanye four times but can't see him ever doing Reading and Leeds to be honest. Feel like that ship sailed a while ago but maybe when his star power shrinks like it did with Eminem then the festival might seem appealing.

[SemiSweet]

Haim next year? Not headline but maybe third down?

Does Kanye even do live shows anymore, anyway? The last time he did a show over here was Glasto, if I’m not mistaken, I don’t see why he’d be booked for R&L of all places when he hasn’t been touring properly anywhere for the past few years (as much as I want it to happen)

You are correct the last time Kanye performed in the UK was in 2015 at Glastonbury Festival, one of two shows that year plus the Brit Awards and Jonathan Ross. Before that he had headlined Wireless in 2014 and three nights in the Apollo in 2013 is all he's done since the Watch the Throne tour with Jay Z.

don’t know about anyone else, but last week I think the most popular band t shirts I saw (excluding bands already playing that weekend), was probably Nothing But Thieves. Seemed to be everywhere. Just kept me thinking how much they should be given a decent slot next year
