Paramore For Reading Festival 2010?

2010-03-04T21:00:00.002Z

Paramore look almost certain to bag a slot at this years Reading festival, after eFestivals revealed them as a "TBC." (To Be Confirmed) Basically this is the strongest label a band can get from eFestivals, and they are an ultra reliable source!

This comes only days after eFestivals revealed that they think Blink 182, Arcade Fire and My Chemical Romance will headline this years event.

Anyone have any thoughts or opinions on this one?

Gorillaz Could Still Perform At Reading Festival 2010

2010-03-04T20:18:00.000Z

The Gorillaz could still steal a slot at this years Reading festival, despite the headline slots being taken.

Main member Damen Albarn said that they would be hitting some major UK festivals this summer, at this years NME awards and what makes them even more possible is that fact that Albarn has also dismissed Glastonbury. He explained that the band "Weren't ready."

Does this leave the doors wide open for a Reading slot, maybe as a supporting headliner?

Daily Star Twist Line-up Speculation Even More!

2010-03-02T13:52:00.000Z

The Daily Star have added another twist in the Reading festival 2010 line-up today by publishing the following statement:

"Spies tell me Arcade Fire and Blink 182 will join Green Day in topping the bill at Reading and Leeds Festival."

http://bit.ly/b81eo0

Greenday have now been dropped by eFestivals, however the Daily Star should not be ruled out as a bad source of news.

The paper announced Paul McCartney would play the Isle of White festival and he was officially confirmed today.

Thoughts and opinions?

They now believe that Blink 182, Arcade Fire and My Chemical Romance will headline the festival.

Here is what they had to say:

"Arcade Fire - returning after a few years, this time we understand that they're set to headline.

Blink 182 - after a few years away, these guys are back and we understand that this year they'll be taking one of the top slots.

And finally, the act we're least sure of but believe are the third headliner are My Chemical Romance."

Pendulum For Reading Festival 2010?

2010-02-17T14:37:00.001Z

Like Them Crooked Vultures, Blink 182 have also joined the 'Strong Rumours' list on leading festival news site eFestivals.

The band are already heavily rumoured to make an appearance at Reading Festival 2010, so this only adds fuel to the huge bonfire that already exists.

I personally think they will make a great addition to the line-up and hope that they play.

The Macabees are a strong rumour for Reading Festival 2010 following the news that the band will be headlining the NME tour this year.

Most acts that do this end up making a performance on the NME stage at Reading Festival.

We expect that the same rule will apply this year too.

2009-12-01T18:45:00.000Z

The rumour of the Strokes playing at Reading Festival 2010 took a turn in the right direction this week, when the band confirmed that they will be headlining the Isle of White festival.

Apparently the band have also mentioned that they will be appearing at other festivals in the summer of 2010 but I have yet to find a source for this info.

I personally think it would be amazing to see them at the weekend, and hope that there is more evidence soon!

Its All Gone Quiet

2009-11-30T16:02:00.000Z

After the initial rush of rumours that we have covered, the news for Reading Festival 2010 really does seem to have dried up.

Glastonbury seems to be the festival that is grabbing all the limelight so far this year.

Fear not though! its still a long time before the festival, and we anticipate that after Christmas, thinks will start to heat up.

2009-11-24T18:18:00.001Z

The rumour of U2 playing Reading Festival 2010 took a huge beating this week, as the band confirmed they would be headlining Glastonbury next summer.

The band could only realistically headline Reading and therefore we now believe that they will not be appearing.
