Im going with one of these Linkin Park/ Foo's/ Chilli Peppers

with Kasabian and Eminem

Am I the only one who doesn't think SOAD are headline material? They played pretty low down last time If im thinking right and if its going to be a 'we have reformed, that makes us bigger than before' thing, waste of a slot.

I want:
Main stage
The Smiths
Pulp
Daft Punk

NME
Animal Collective
Flaming Lips
The National

Never said it was realistic................

SOAD will never headline Leeds/Reading
if they do reform and play it'll be second down methinks
they can headline Download. they can headline Sonisphere. but Leeds and Reading? nah. i'd find that incredibly odd (even though to be fair, they could definitely pull it off)

if Green Day, Muse or Kasabian are headlining then i'm just not going

Why not just go and see other bands?  It's not as if there's only 3 bands on all weekend...  :/

i love my Main Stage headliners. no better atmosphere than a crowd of thousands standing in a field at night singing along
and i'm looking for excuses not to go to Leeds next year so i can try another festival, so crap headliners will do the job for me!

think green day will defo headline. chillis or foo fighters would be a dream also guna throw kasabian and the strokes in there

stage one
fri - Eminem
sat - R.E.M.
sun - SOAD


other acts over the weekend soundgraden , the strokes , the white stripes, alice in chains, korn,

Without getting loads of people saying 'go to download then.....'
i'd like to  see PLAY, not necessarily headline:
30 seconds to mars
slipknot
bullet for my valentine
linkin park
soad
chilli's
foo

I can see it being The Strokes/Linkin Park/Eminem 
Wouldn't mind seeing another band headline a major festival for the first time like Arcade Fire did (Latitude was a great set and they were awesome but it seems the likes of NME and the like have forgotten that festivals even exists unless someone punches a fan). But the only ones i can thing of are Biffy but i can't see them doing it next year. If the next album is popular i'd give Kanye West a shout. I know he isn't as good as he used to be and nothing will top the College Dropout and people would hate the crowd he'd attract but it'd be something different for Reading & Leeds. But then Festival Republic would have to make sure they kept the Leeds spirit in tact by having someone like Iron Maiden headline as well and have a proper heavy metal day to accompany them.

coz im not going!
 
unless one of following do
 
muse
green day
kasabian
anything jack white or dave grohl  related

I wouldn't be too bothered if Chilli's headlined again after seeing them in '07 which wasn’t the best set.

REM would be ****ing awesome but theyre more of a Glasto band, I dont think L/R would book them :(

A British band please........ oh, 'cept Muse!

Foo's, Kasabian and Massive Attack to headline the NME please.

A British band please........ oh, 'cept Muse!
Massive Attack to headline the NME please.

YES!

re chilli peppers..... they were wank last time

muse, foo fighters and eminem.

id love to be the guy whose in charge of it all. knowing that like 80,000 or so people will be wondering whose gonna headline and all

dream headliners would be - chilli's, greenday and foo fighters
but i can carry on dreaming aha

soad are easy big enough. Last time they played was 03 were they subbed to metalica. Since then they have grown loads in popularity releasing another 2 no.1 albums in the same year which barely any other bands have ever done. imo they are far bigger than arcade fire. I know this shouldnt really be a factor as such but the fact they will be reforming will be a big pull. I know this forum is a minority of the people who attend the festival but at the same time, the majority of the minority are suggesting soad.

Saying that i think they will be at download first. We can wish

Im praying for Green Day I was gutted when the rumours were false this year :( , Muse would be awesome,  System Of A Down would be cool but they would probably be at Download if they reformed.

I reckon we're gonna get a bit of a landmark act next year. Someone who is massive. It would be the only reason I'd go back. You might see Kings of Leon again with them releasing a new album, but doubt it with it being so soon since last time. I think Muse is a good shout too.
