pretty sure this rumour was debunked somewhere 

Nah I think the same thing happened a few years ago but came to nothing but notices have gone up again stating that a license has been applied for three dates in June next year for an event, efestivals themselves reported on it.

Great album, excited to see them wherever they stop in 2021 really.

Not the UK then, since they never seem to come over here (no pun intended).

Personally I think this is way too strong but if this festival existed i’d enjoy it. Cracking headliners.

I have a couple of hot takes that I reckon would ruffle a couple of feathers on this board but I reckon Tyler the creator would probably coheadline or headline instead of sub and I can’t see the Weeknd coheadlining with Dave. Biffy and Dave coheadlining would probably be more likely.

I do feel as well that it doesn’t look very R&L because there aren’t some unbelievably shit acts taking high slots

These aren’t really hot takes.

The shout for Tyler the Creator headlining R+L is definitely weird.

I could see him being billed as a coheadliner for sure.

Seems even less qualified than the persistent Tame Impala shouts. He's only just hit Lovebox/Parklife headline level (same as Khalid) and I can't see there being a year where they can't get a bigger rap or R&B headliner - or if there are two then they could probably get two headliners bigger than him. Like maybe in a few years' time if he keeps climbing but forget it for now.

[Andre91]

Tyler headlining (co or otherwise) is a wild shout and something I can’t see happening at all but. Subbing, though? Yeah, probably. Maybe even third down.

Neither Tame or Tyler would headline.

Yeah i would say so nowadays to be honest. Shikari headlined the third stage at Download last year, Architects wouldnt play there.

Don't see why this is so shocking.

[Alex Winstone]

I just don't see Architects being booked anyway to play in the UK festival wise, I'm suprised they haven't headlined Slam Dunk, 2000 Trees or the second stage at Download yet, hence why I didn't see them as second stage headliners or bigger than Enter Shikari. 

[Andre91]

Shikari only played third stage at Download because it was a continuation of their tour they had just done which was of smaller venues than they had been playing for the last couple of album cycles. They could have headlined the Zippo and nobody would have batted an eyelid. They’re definitely the right size to headline the second stage at Download and R&L. 
 

Architects, on the other hand, I feel that they could and should sub headline the main stage next time they play Download (if they ever do play Download again). If they were to play R&L, they could comfortably headline the R1 tent or play third down Main. If R&L was to ever book Metallica again, for example, Architects could sub headline like BMTH did.

What’s the highest Shikari have ever played at R&L? Fairly sure it was 4th down in 2014, and they were more popular then (especially with the R&L crowd) than they are now.

They wouldn’t headline the R1 Stage nowadays, and if they did they’d get a very small crowd.

[CG31]
