hello? it's basically already announced.

Rage, Metallica, Killers, QOTSA, Bloc Party, Tenacious D, Slipknot, The Enemy, The Wombats, Manics, We Are Scientists, Editors, Foals, Biffy Clyro, Taking Back Sunday, Fratellis, Feeder, Cribs, Pendulum + moree....

i'm only excited for Metallica, Killers, Slipknot and Taking Back Sunday. Personally. Oh and The Enemy.

Why the fuck are Rage headlining? Last time they played, as in the *extrasuperdupermegaspecialbreakupperformance* they played about 4 slots down. Rubbish headliner. I wish it was Fall Out Boy. Mwahahaha.

Oh wait, I forgot one - Avenged Sevenfold!! Yaaay.

oh and that was for Leeds by the way so the days will be different for Reading. Apparently Rage are on the Friday, The Killers are on the Saturday and Metallica are on the Sunday at Reading. I'm not really into this line up. The smaller stages are quite alright sometimes but i'm well not liknig Friday or Saturday's main stages :S

reading and leeds

Enter Shikari defenately aren't playing, they would only do a main stage slot seeing as they did a high NME/Radio1 slot last year, and the main stage is basically full up now

Apparently Jared Leto said GIAN will be their only festival appearance this year in UK, but you never know things may chnage, mid main stage if anything

Paramore are also rumoured to be playing, not sure where though if this is true

NO NO NO NO

Panic will defenately not play! they've played 2 years running on the main stage now, and as i said with Enter shikari, there's no spot left for them to play!

No one ever plays 3 years running on the same stage, and Panic are too big for anythign less than Main stage
