How many and which of these could be in the next announcement realistically?

[MIchael_scarn]

I don't think anyone really has an idea how they're going to announce it because of how different it's been from the past few years but it wouldn't surprise me if they announced pretty much the full poster next, could be wrong though.

Would suit me.

I understand they usually get something out now so it's just in time for Christmas, but generally surely once the lineups out you are going to go or you're not; don't see the point in announcements spread-out really.

kaiser chiefs subbing foos would be mad

[Jericode]

Wouldn't happen, they've dropped off big time. Early in the day or on the R1 stage if they show up.

I'm not denying that, they subbed catfish at a festival I went to this summer, but surely streets have dropped off just as much if not more than them but people are still saying they could sub?

Yeah I'm wondering how The Streets could still sub....3rd yes but their big reunion momentum has died a bit, had the festivals been this year then I could have seen it but Other headliner at Glastonbury for them even would be crazy.

The Streets haven't dropped off. They split up and have come back even bigger on their reunion. They're also supposedly either subbing the Pyramid or headlining the Other Stage at Glasto (for reference, the acts who did that this year were The xx, The National, Biffy Clyro, Major Lazer, alt-J and Boy Better Know). Conversely, Kaiser Chiefs played 5th down the Other Stage this year (The same slot as Glass Animals and Kodaline).

Are glass animals still about? Loved that second album with pork soda and life itself on if

The drummer had a bad accident earlier this year. He was hit by a lorry whilst cycling. Think they cancelled all plans until he recovers.

They’re not a they are they. It’s just Mike Skinner isn’t it?

A sub seems a little much, even for someone (me) who was in their prime when he was in his prime. 

3rd just about. Must admit being in the US now I have no idea at any splash they’ve made with new material that has gained a new audience

Splitting it up means that the hype and interest continues. Its like a teaser campaign almost for like a new film, you get many trailers before the final release. I don't know if I am going so far, waiting for more acts on the support before I buy a ticket personally.

Nah it's a group. You even called them a "they" in your last paragraph

There are about 6 or 7 of them I think? Mike just gets the spotlight lmao.

Definitely haven't dropped off at all, if anything even bigger. New album in September aswell as a documentary so I could definitely see them playing as they've already released about 5 singles .Majority aren't great for me though so not too excited for the album.

If Panic At The Disco can sub, The Streets should be able to, no problem. They have enough big songs to pull it off.

Plus Other Stage headliners at Glastonbury are more or less equivalent size to subs at Reading and Leeds. Major Lazer, Disclosure, Jake Bugg, Chase and Status, Bloc Party and The Prodigy all headlined the Other Stage the same year they subbed R&L.

Spotify doesn't mean much but like come on...

The only song close to the street's figure was released today also. I am 17 and until browsing these forums I hadn't even heard of the Streets. I think they would be a great 3rd down or NME headliner, or could sub the double headline but they can't sub foos or 1975. I guess Courteeners did sub but they have been moving up the bill for ages, Streets have just come back so they could be put lower if Reading choose to. Do you think we could get Skrillex (not to sub, just generally)

But in the context of this being a music festival in the UK, where stage positions are based on an artist's popularity in this country, The Streets subbing probably wouldn't be as surprising as Panic being booked to sub was. Plus you have to take into account that The Streets aren't that well known outside of the UK, whereas I'd imagine a lot of those people who have streamed Panic are from America and elsewhere.
