Realistically how many sub headliners do we have left and who is everyone realistically predicting still to come? 
MSE: Raye, 21 Savage, Jorja Smith

MSW: Fontaines D.C, Denzel Curry, The Kooks/ Wombats/ Jamie T

I reckon skrillex and the prodigy will be headlining a different more dance oriented stage instead of subbing with Four Tet as the 3rd

Jamie T is headlining Victorious

Yeah but he isn’t a festival exclusive I don’t believe so he could always do Sunday- Friday at R&L surely?

He’s not playing Reading if he’s headlining Victorious. 

I don’t think theyve even had any crossover lower down the lineup the last few years

I’d watch them. I wouldn’t pay to watch them

(well Bizkit and potentially Harris I would)

To be honest there isn't many bands I actually would pay for now.

[gfa]

I don't think Four Tet will be at Reading to be honest.

We already have 2 more large dance names than usual

I also agree with this. After Bicep's daylight set last year I really can't see them making the same mistake with Skrillex. Arcadia headliners maybe?

The Prodigy appears to be full band so won't be on Arcadia

I meant like a different stage like Arcadia like just after the mse headliner like each headlining a different day

There's not going to be both Arcadia (if thats to even be believed) and another stage for prodigy

I also really don't think they can have stuff after headliners, definitely not at Reading anyway

unless it’s a main stage silent disco after the headliners like sigma last year…

[Hart Attack]

Korn have announced European dates for the end of July with Spiritbox. Won't be at Download, no UK shows announced yet... get them under Blink and Prodigy.

[CG31]

Is the assumption that all 6 subs have been announced to with:

21 Savage/Prodigy/Skrillex

Raye/Jorja Smith/Digga D

or one more instead of Digga D ie token indie band

21 Savage and Skrillex are on the same day, so are Raye and Digga D.

Think there'll be one or two MSE/MSW subs that haven't been announced yet.

[nathanh]

Yeah no I dont think we have all the subs as @SomeoneListeningInsaid, I dont think Digga D is a sub either or if he is it feels not that big of a deal.

The prodigy, skrillex and four tet aren't doing a silent disco 😂

Though, ironically, Skrillex is best enjoyed through headphones that are on someone else's head...

[stanh]

Skrillex will be fine on a main stage - even in daylight, his set doesn't rely too heavily on visuals/lighting and will go down well anyways with the amount of energy he brings.

Come on, Digga D is not subbing.

 

A 1xtra headliner maybe, but not subbing.

Agreed, I think he is a 1Xtra headliner or mid afternoon mainstage. If you compare him sizewise with the others we are assuming are subs, he would look so cheap.

[Andre91]

Digga ain’t subbing either stage. I think he could play third down on either, though. 

[Guest]

I think he'll probably be third down, but I don't think it's impossible to think that he's the MSW sub either. That day is gonna sell well, regardless.

[Hart Attack]

The Story So Far -> Spiritbox -> Korn -> The Prodigy -> Blink-182 would be sensational

Barely 1/4 filled the field last time they played so I dread to think how they’ll be appreciated by the crowd now.

I guess that was before the Woodstock 99 hype though…

id hate to imagine what would happen if certain 16 year olds go into the front areas if this was to happen completely oblivious to what type of music
