Can you imagine the outrage of the social media generation if that was the line-up. Imagine the riots in the campsites from the teenagers hyped up on the 1xtra tent and there first actual drink, and first weekend away without parents. 

Granted, us 30s will love it. 

Something something goths something something white men with guitars something something y'all ooft yikes 😤

That’s inevitable no matter the lineup so might as well give us what we want 😂

[Sorcha17]

Guarantee whoever gets announced as headliners, everyone on twitter will be crying for AM and Dave again.

Stormzy is back with a bang, this man just goes from strength to strength - music video is a must watch too, possibly the best one I've seen this year.

Panic are doing 5 arena dates that are selling alright, they're absolutely headlining if they're back

[Andre91]

Paramore and Kasabian need swapping.

5 arena dates that are selling 'alright' is hardly glowing i've got to say 😂

And Brendon Uries a strange self centered nonce

However we wanna word it, if they come back to LnR they're in the top slots no questions asked. Not for me any more but they must have a decent following.

I must say, I did really enjoy the P!ATD set in 2018, however, from the videos of the new tour, it looks nowhere near on that level, and doesn't really help that I am not a fan at all of the new album, which is very very sub-par imo, and the current setlist seems to have a lot of that prominently on it unfortunately - hope R&L give it a miss and book something more exciting.

exactly- -so many better options and so many better, similar acts touring who also haven't played as recently

They're playing the whole new album in the middle of the set. Which is a choice.

Completely agree.

Very much so, not even a good album😂 Can see why so many tickets are already popping up on Twickets

If they were billing this year as the ‘return to rock’ then there’s no chance of more than one rock/emo band. It’ll most likely be:

Indie x2 / rock / pop / rap / rnb

Don't really think Bryson Tiller is big enough to headline, even for MSW

[metallimuse]

Wow, first old man moment but who the f*** is Bryson Tiller?

I'm 21 and can't say i regularly hear the name - never heard of him bar the occasional mockup poster on here

[TKOCF]

This new Courting album is absolutely mega. Hoping they’ll get a good slot next year.

[stanh]

Forgot to post this earlier, a second big show for Central Cee has been announced at WHP later this year after selling out Ally Pally pretty damn fast. Almost certain at this point his next album will include arena shows, and big slots at UK festivals. Also worth pointing out he is gaining quite a bit of overseas (pun not intended!) support too, especially in the States and Auz - not the be all or end all, but his streaming numbers very much on the rise with over 22m monthly Spotify listeners, and 152nd most streamed act in the world. I know not everyone in here is a fan of his music, but certainly an act to watch from the UK rap scene!

I think he could headline MSW. More relevant to the target audience than Disclosure, Biffy Clyro and arguably  Halsey from the last two lineups. Also, bookings of Muse, Dua and Kendrick would weigh heavily on the budget.

The guy played academies 5 years ago and has done nothing since. Never even heard of him. Wouldn't be anywhere NEAR a main slot next year as far as I can tell. 

That didn't mean to sound so snippy, just a bit baffled 😅
