Dissertation Survey - Exploring the Role Environmental Sustainability Plays on Attendee Motivations for Music Festivals with a Comparison of Glastonbury and Reading Festivals
The quality of the headliners is directly proportional to the price. Weekend tickets at £180 (£60 a day) are not going to get blockbuster headliners.
the last couple of years (Mumford, biffy) they have pulled one, unexpected big band out the bag, but even biffy was not that crowded (mumfords and fender had a bigger crowd).
I am starting to lose faith that either prodigy or Fontaines will play as they don’t seem aligned to other superstruct events next year (I assumed they would be shared headliners). I thought pulp would be the biggie, but now looks like is the bulk booking (with at least tramlines).
my issue is that none of the other superstruct events have feasible headliners for victorious this year as they all seemed to have played recently (stereophonics, kasabian, courteeners) or not big enough (blossoms).
only a couple more weeks to wait and see.
Doubt we will see QOTSA back at R&L again unless something massively changes and 00s rock music becomes the in-thing with young people. They got a mixed reaction at Download (put on an excellent headline set, though); they would be met with utter bemusement at R&L.
I think all the names been thrown around are all possable. Looking at recent years we will be getting some of the Superstruct circus as headliners and one other. I always feel that Victorious should have bigger headliners then it actually ends up with.
I always end up thinking they done well with one name but the others are pretty average for such a large festival.
