Assumed solid info was that:
Big 3:
- Foo Fighters didn't really go quiet as nothing countered it other than Grohl having an affair, but I'd assume that's worked through.
- Post Malone is in Romania in August at festivals so is very likely.
- Kasabian are around about at the moment so could very likely fill that indie spot, as they've headlined a few times before they reasonably could be expected to be that easy booking.
"Sub" Headliners:
- Central Cee has a new album coming out soon and is touring.
- Chappel Roan is meant to be "co-ing" with Hozier, so she will be 2nd and he 3rd.
- Bring me the Horizon no longer billed as exclusives elsewhere.
Outside shots: Muse, Eminem, Weekend, Stormzy, Chase and Status.
They did play it on the first leg of that tour but not on the second. They have been playing it for 12 years so they might feel like giving it a rest for a bit. I want to hear it all the time, personally. Proper banger.
Chappell is heavily rumoured/"confirmed" for Electric Picnic in Ireland which is the weekend after, usually R&L and EP share a couple headliners as they're both owned by Festival Republic. Gerry Cinnamon in 2024 as well as Billie Eilish and The Killers in 2023 both headlined EP and R&L.
Last year was 23rd, I was at my AGM everyone waiting on me to go aboard the Royal Yacht, whilst im listening to my phones radio in the hotel room as we were told the first name was Raye.
I fly back to the yacht next Thursday, so a year to the day then.
