    If you go to en.wikipedia.org and type in ‘leeds festival 2007 rumours’ it comes up with the following lists of bands: -

    Rumours have been circulating regarding which bands will play the festivals in 2007. Here is a list of bands rumoured.

    Razorlight

    I’ve read the Oasis rumour recently on some other similar sites.

  21. anonymous

    I heard the smashing pumpkins, the used, alkaline trio and jimmy eat world are playing which would be a dream

  22. davelms

    Yeah, Smashing Pumpkins have been talked about a lot recently, quite a common rumour now so very possibly true (I would suspect).

  23. drumf#ck

    yea id like think that the kaisers could play and i also think that a really crap band like linkin park could play as they are bringing a new album out this year

  24. liam

    they just need to bang some new bands in who are good live
    the view
    klaxtons
    fratellis

  28. Mr Stuart

  29. rach

    i really really hope jimmy eat world play, that would be amazing

  30. Kate

    The Used will be sending out a new album next month and doing a lot of touring this summer.. would be so great! -make my summer:D

  31. Robbie

    I heard…The Bee-Gees, Elvis Prestley and The Beatles were headlining, with Beach boys, The Monkees and Panic! at the disco close seconds

  32. Alex

    if you go on who’s gonna be touring around then you might get an idea of who might do the festival… i was right with some of my guesses last year but i relly personally want to see lost prophets, oasis, the fratellis, the view, maiden, trivium n maybe razorlight

    and iv heard the smashing pumpkins one somewhere else…as with the oasis one too :) fingers crossed, oh yes

  33. me

    you all want the cure man

  35. Bagrats

    friday - smashing pumkins

  36. i am me

    Enter shikari are playing. I spoke to them at a gig and they said theyve been asked back to the festival on a main day and theyve agreed.

  37. Al

    Friday - Rage Against The Machine or Guns n’ Roses
    Saturday - Kasabian or Razorlight
    Sunday - The Killers

  38. johnson

  53. Andy Taylor

    Not loads of metal bands, if i wana go eat babies and mosh loads ill go to china.
    Lots of Bands like last year. Loads of New rave 2, CCS are legends. Wolfmother! If Muse could paly every year them too but prob wont. No fuckin Razorlight, worst band in the world, subways are dreadful live 2. +44 were ace and Bloc Party have to headline.

  54. Greg B

    you can include Kaisers again…this time touring their new album….i’ll bet any money their there again, probably headlining, Pigeon detectives….been a Leeds band they’ll be on the roster somewhere…..they’ve got to get Green Day headlining Sunday at leeds….like muse did in 06…..everyone else is mentioning the same bands as last year!…..most of them will be away working on a second album…all those with new albums…Bloc Party, Jamie T, Kaisers, Arctics, The View, Killers are sure to be playing….wouldn’t mind some old skool stuff…Faithless maybe? massive attack would be nice….but for me Green Day have to headline….i think headliners will be Green Day, AC/DC and The Killers, AC/DC on Friday, The Killers on Saturday and Green Day on Sunday….with MCR, Arctic’s and Bloc Party been second headliners….i bet im not far off

  55. Greg B

    maybe not The Killers, maybe Kaisers will be headlining Saturday….one of the 2…

  58. f*ckofftodownload

    F*ck me if everyone likes metal and all that cock rock bollocks, then fuck off to download. musicisrubbish has compiled a decent list. Razorlight are certainly shite though.

  59. f*ckofftodownload

    PS. Klaxons headlining NME stage. Entershikari for Carling. Babyshambles headlining main stage with Bloc Party and then some random metal band or something for the friday because i usually stay away from the main stage most of the time anyway.

  60. f*ckofftodownload

    PPS. the suggestion of Rammstein though, I would :)

    xx

  64. tom palecek

    So long as rage and dillinger escape plan are there i don’t care who plays and when. hell - bring back daphne and celeste i couldn’t care less. it’d give us someone to bottle - or may be throttle.
    seriously if dillinger are on that bill, i’ll crap myself
    and rage, probably would twice over

  65. James

    Golly gosh Justin Timberlake?!?! He’l be headlining oh dear…. BUUUT chilis, bloc party, monkeys and all other indie :D

  66. Donnington Veteran

    Why does everyone keep wanting MCR to play? Unless you wanna swamp out the entire festival with emo kids its a bad idea. There were loads at download last year, when funeral for a friend played (One of my all time faves, not cus I’m because I’m an emo kid, but because I started listening to ffaf before its spawned forth the masses of emo) it was the funniest thing because they played stuff mostly from hours but did play This years most open heartbreak and the emo kids didnt know it! LMFAO

    Anyways I sidetracked RATM would be cool FFAF (for me would be cool but i’d doubt they’d ever be there) BSF (they may have broken up though i cant remember) hell i’ll just say it, ALEXISONFIRE pleeeeeease… lol

  67. Luke

    any1 considered the police to play? they sed they wer gunna be in england in the autum??
    the killers wer imense in 05, love them back, razorlight, the chillis??

    this years fest shud be awsome 2 be fair, the music out since last year has been pretty good!

  68. Charli

    One of the best lineups ever.
    Although, I feel sorry for Razorlight, having to headline with the Chilis. They barely even come close.
    And I hope FFAF play too :]
    Bring on Enter Shikari and Alexisonfire!

  69. bachacek

    well, my dream-list would be..
    *smashing pumpkins, marilyn manson, green day, my chemical romance, placebo, muse, HIM, IAMX, Aiden, AFI, babyshambles, panic at the disco, red hot chilli peppers, artic monkeys and some more… *
    and i hope that at least half of them will be there :)

  70. Coco

    +44 and pogues would be mint…also reel big fish and nofx, reuben, bronx, mxpx, new found glory, less than jake, flogging molly, little man tate….i can go on all day

    ….wat???, a girl can dream

  71. Ralf

    according to wikipedia NME confirmed razorlight, RHCP and smashing pumpkins as headliners and “punktastic” confirms Kasabian, Interpol, Fall Out Boy, Ian Brown, Bloc Party, The View, The Gossip, Alterkicks, Ian Brown, LostProphets, trivium, funeral for a friend, good shoes, Velvet Revolver, Wolfmother, Manic Street Preachers, The Fratellis, Jarvis and Klaxons. They all seem quite likely so…

  72. Sam

    I reckon it’ll be:
    Friday
    Main stage
    Rage Against the Machine
    Red Hot Chili Peppers
    Lostprophets

    NME Stage
    Klaxons
    CSS

    Saturday

    Main Stage
    Oasis
    Bloc Party

    NME Stage
    The Good the Bad and The Queen
    The View

    Sunday

    Main Stage
    Smashing Pumpkins
    Razorlight (hope not)
    Biffy Clyro

    NME Stage
    Arcade Fire
    Larrikin Love

    The headliners are strong rumours so i reckon im pretty close and the NME stage is determined by who NME are bumming the most at the present time

  73. anonymous

    WE WANT BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB BACK

  74. Lewis

    for me i would want rage against the machine metallica and oasis as the headline bands, that would be the shit

  75. anonymous

    I heard that Aerosmith were coming this year. Bloody hope so anyway!

  76. william

    rage against the machine and biffy would be fookin awesome

  77. bill

    i heard razorlight, chilis and smashing pumpkins headlining

  78. rob

    not so much a rumour but rage against the machine having announced a reunion gig in the us HAVE TO play at leeds it will just be the best thing ever especialy for those of us who wer a bit young the first time they were around

    ps this probably wont happen i just pray it will….

  79. Mark

    Biffffy Clyrooo!! [Simon Neil is a GOD!]

  80. Your Mum

    “Lewis

    18 February 2007 | 16:53

    for me i would want rage against the machine metallica and oasis as the headline bands, that would be the shit”

    That’d do me nicely too. Can’t see it happening though, to be honest. Rage have apparently denied the rumours, but I don’t know that for certain. I have heard that a little-known ska-punk band called branded a fool may be headlining, though.

  81. Sam

    80% of the stuff people are rabbiting on about sound like they are on the wrong site and are on about lineups from bloody download….. i seriously hope there arn’t as many metal bands as people say there’s gona be. We need variety people!!!! One or two metal bands maybe, but not every single bloody one. Enter Shikari - yes please :) Interpol - heck yessss. Lets just wait and see eh?!
    Tis good not know and having your ticket booked :D

    but please no Panic at the Disco!!!! I might have to take my sledgehammer if they play :)

  82. Alteredcarbon

    The Pogues would be unbelievable but I mainly hope The Wildhearts get asked to play.

  83. apple

    Would love to have Kings of Leon back :D

  84. A cat

    My friend’s girlfriend’s dad’s mate’s wife’s hairdresser has inside information that Jimi Hendrix will play. For certain…

    ^
    And that rumour is probably about as viable as most of the other ones that have been mentioned ;) People don’t seem to know the difference between rumours and totally random guesses :)

    I would love to see RAtM go though. Although ‘insider information’ according to some bullcrap source I read seems to suggest that they’re only doing Coachella to “test the waters” and see if they can cope with each other’s personality flaws. Which means even if they do decide to stay together after that, it’ll probably be too late to get themselves booked into any more festivals this year. Sorry to spoil it for anyone :P Hopefully next year though.

    I do have one pretty plausible rumour though: The NME stage will be awful.

    Sorry I didn’t have any real rumours, all this post is for is crushing everyone’s dreams…

  85. natasha

    has anyone else heard that INTERPOL are playing??
    theyve just been announced for t-in the park so at least theyre out of hiding
    theyre the only band on ym fave bands of all time ever that i havnt seen live and it would make my life if they were there!!!
    and i dont want to go T coz theyre line up is beyond predictable!
    please somebody say theyve heard about interpol too!!!

  86. Jennniii x

    GUN & ROSES ppl, dnt think it wud hapen but hey i can dream, maybe bit of velvet revolver or fratellis ther ace seen them last year at beached & lost prophets want them ther & my chem romance

  87. Mean Fiddler

    This is an Official announcement of the bill, i spoke to a rep at Mean Fiddler and he strongly suggested the line-ups will include teh following bands:

    Rage Against the Machine,
    Red Hot Chilli Peppers,
    Smashing Pumpkins,
    Oasis,
    The Killers,
    Jimmy Eat World,
    Razorlight,
    The Kooks,
    The View,
    Rise Against,
    Bloc Party,
    Fall Out Boy,
    +44,
    Taking Back Sunday,
    Drive Like I Do,
    Biffy Clyro,
    The Fratellis.

    plus more acts. I gather this is the main stage line-up, with Oasis, the Pumpkins and RATM headlining. Chilis will play behind them.

  88. Lauren

    My chemical romance, the killers, snow patrol are all headlinng at T in the Park.. im i am sure that they will play leeds too.

    i REALLLLY hope MCR play…. i think i would be in heaven !!!!!

    glastonbury announced this year that they can not afford bands like Oasis, and Coldplay… so i really dont think Leeds will be able to afford them. wouldnt get your hopes up on seeing Oasis.

    I seen RHCP at T In The Park last year, and they were no where near as good as i expected them to be.

  89. Nick

    I’d like to see;

    +44
    Block Party
    Fallout Boy
    My Chemical Romance
    Green Day
    Yellowcard
    The Killers
    The Klaxons
    Jamie T
    Alkaline Trio
    The Ataris
    Orson
    Panic! at The Disco
    Dashboard Confessional
    Breaking Benjamin
    Trapt
    Taking Back Sunday
    The kooks
    RHCP
    Less Than Jake
    Zebrahead
    Sugarcult
    Sum 41
    Good Charlotte
    Lost Prophets
    Linkin Park

    That’s the shit!

  90. Katt

    My chemical romance i doubt will be there as they’re playing at download.
    Its definatly gonna be a new rave/ indie/new hardcore year +the chilli’s
    But if alkaline trio played i think i might die and be in heaven :]
    But deffo Klaxons! And heard FOB will be playing again :] Also how good will this be RADIOHEAD!

  91. Katt

    Oh and The Holloways are playing cause i was talking to the drummer Dave on the train the other week…i think a few people could be happy about that. I think he mentioned the kaiser cheifs aswell…mums will be happy haha.

  92. lead singer of the future indy legends!!

    I have heard from a big man in the leeds festival organisation that the following bands are 95% certain to play, he told me the headliners for each day and the biggest bands after them:

    Friday
    headliners: Kooks, Artic Monkeys
    next big band: Muse
    Saturday
    headliners: Oasis, Razorlight
    next big band: Killers
    Sunday
    Headliners: Snow Patrol, Muse
    next big band:Fratellis

    He told me that he 75% certain that Smashing Pumpkins, Bloc Party, Lost Prophets are playin and he even said that Aerosmith and Coldplay might play. Magic Number and Hard Fi are also tipped to play. Hope this helps, Its all pretty concrete material!!!

  93. terrr

    Think Capdown deserve a place on the main stage this year!! They’d headline if it was up to me! They’ve been around years, they always entertain and quite frankly, their music’s the shit!!

    But rumours I’ve heard for headliners are Bloc Party and I can’t remember the other two, some more indie stuff I guess! leeds festival just isn’t what it used to be! too much indie, too commercial, too many better bands out there who deserve a better chance!!

    Ideally, I’d have; CAPDOWN, LostProphets, The Used, RADIOHEAD, Oasis, Alk3, Smashing Pumpkins, REM, Dashboard, Taking Back Sunday, Jimmy Eat World, Dropkick Murphy’s, Thrice, Reel Big Fish, The Donnas, Goldfinger, Billy Talent, Coheed & Cambria, Alanis Morissette! I think we get the point, lol!

  94. lead singer of the future indy legends!!

    I meant the Red Hot Chilli Peppers instead of Muse on the Sunday!!!

  95. wishful thinker

    Rage have reformed and playin in the US, why did audioslave cancel last year?? someone owes us a visit

  96. bov1984

    Ac/dc, smashing pumpkins, and rage against the machine are headliners apprently going off sum american website, bloc party are a definite as they said in nme, and snow patrol said they will be doing all the festival bar the metal ones, kaisers are a cert as they’re local lads and the new album is out and audioslave well they better be they’re cos if it werent 4 pearl jam being there last year id wudnt have gone so get ur finger out cornell and co.

  97. lu

    wel i reakon incubus will play caus there on tour around then n there new album has come out… i doubt panic! at the disco will play after gettin bottled last year! i hope they do thou there ace… i reakon fall out boy will play and defo red hot chilli peppers! im guessing will be a good lineup this year.

  98. Johnson

    Right ok - everyone stop complaining about metal playing at Leeds its only recently changed into some boring shitty indie fest. No one remember Marilyn Manson playing back at Tempsey??

    I want diversity!!!

    I like metal, hardcore, punk, ska & emo & i miss the days when its wasnt so many genres but when we were all classed as alternative! bloody snobs!!!

    Nofx would be awesome and they are doing Europe in their year long tour but hey ho!

    Ive heard a lot of pumpkins rumours but other than that nothing much.

    Oh and will everyone stop bitching about emo as well - its the chavs that we need to worry about!!

  111. bistro_crew

    We would like arctic monkeys, fall out boy, fratellis and chilis and green day and REM and KAISER CHIEFS!!!! and oasis and because they are mint the futureheads :) oh and all american rejects!!

    id canny like jarvis an’ all.

    please

    thank you.

  112. Clairet

    Well I’d love the following:

    JIMMY ET WORLD
    Fall Out Boy
    Alkaline Trio
    Avenged Sevenfold
    The Killers
    Brand New

    to name but a few…

    I think that smashing pumpkins,bloc party, red hot chillis and razorlight are pretty much definites.if u look at the bands sites there are gaps on the leeds/reading dates.the view are also stronglr rumoured along with the kooks who will be on main stage-thank god i nearly got crushed in radio 1 tent last year.gossip and oasis are mentioned on alot of the sites.i know iron maiden are def playin 1 of the festivals as they wer droppin heavy hints on there tour about partying in a muddy field in the summer.also,lineup for v has been announced so u can make an intelligent assumption about whoelse will be doin the festivals!

  116. anonymous

    I think I’d make an attempt to go if you get some hip hop acts there. I sick of metal and indie, where’s the HIP HOP!!!!!

    Not sure how Muse can play twice but i would chop my hand off for this lineup. Please God, please!!!! Probably won’t happen tho as some of the bands played last year as well.

  118. Legend in the making

    Stronn rumours floating about here in america that Foo Fighters, Chilli Peppers, Oasis, Snow Patrol, Muse , Killers and Ac/Dc playing Leeds for definate!!

  119. anonymous

    Not my cheesy romance

  120. lauraa=]

    GET MUSEE BACK FUCKKERRS (y)

  121. Pyro

    Funeral for a friend!!! They didnt play last year, annnnd they have new album out this year!

    C’mon, theyve got to!

    Ill cry if they dont…..

  122. Jaaaambiii

    A couple of months back Danny Carey from Tool was interviewed for the Radio 1 Rock Show and mentioned they were “…gonna head over there (UK) in the summer again and probably play Reading…”

    That pretty much sounds like self-confirmed?

    Billy And The Pumpkins or whatever he’s calling them would be interesting as would System Of A Down and Deftones (been awhile since either band played).

  123. dca

    i think that smashing pumpkins are going to headline a night, and think that there is a slight possibility that rage against the machine may headline after they have extended their tour in the us.
    obvious bands which will end up playing include the likes of the kooks, the view, nofx, enter shikari, kings of leon!!!

  124. willy

    i agree with Jaaaambiii as deftones would be amazing… also im missing this tour… chilis would be nice… enter shikari… BIFFY CLYRO… tool at leeds (please god!!) and then rage against the machine should relive the legendary ‘93 slot (or was it ‘94?) whatever it would be mint all the same…

    oh yeah and a little band called circa survive should play… they have a new album and they share management with mcr so why shouldnt they be able to get out here?

  125. ol

    i’ve heard a lot of pumkins rumours too but anything else for me is just speculation, that being said, wouldn’ Regina Spektor, the shins. camera obscura, james, belle and sebastian, babyshambles, the concretes, damien rice, dresden dolls neutral milk hotel, rilo kiley and the white stripes be brilliant (just a dream though) oh, and a few good new comedians would be really nice (mark watson, josie lauwrence, russel howard etc)

  126. Jaaabiiii

    Okay, i’ve confirmed with all the bands and this is the first day at Leeds Main Stage:

    RATM
    Tool
    SOAD
    Mastodon
    Deftones
    Mars Volta
    Funeral For A Friend

    No need for any more rumours. I’ll let everyone know the other two days main stage line up when i confirm with the bands.

  127. Jaaambiiii

    oh yeah Oasis have been banned ‘cos i don’t like them.

  128. Jaaambiiii

    Forgot to add Gojira to the first day main stage.

  129. christian

    funeral will deffo do leeds this year as they have a new album coming out and last played in 2005 (whom i saw at leeds)and on their myspace they said they are deffo doing lots of festivals….muse wont come back for a second year this rarely happens if not never….NME are bumming enter shikari at the moment and i think with there live performance they will be pretty high up on the bill (can i state i fuckin love them)
    id love to see:-
    alexisonfire

    Im sorry to have to tell you this but SOAD are on hiatus to do solo stuff for a year or more. so i guess they wont b playin even tho i wud love to see em again. id love to see enter shikari again as they were awsum on the thurs night last year.

  131. anonymous

    I hope ratm play
    but i think the rumour is going about because they are doing a one time only gig in seattle or somewhere but maybe they’ll reform

  132. the_small_print

    i hope that there is a line up like last year and muse again, but with none of that emo music

  133. robbie

    foo fighters, snow patrol and kasbian wont play as they are doing v festival.
    chechk the site and any bands playing at that wont play at leeds fest.
    No editors.
    but i think bloc party are self confimred yay :D

    i so hope its caliban
    i fuckin love them

  150. anonymous

    enter shikari are immense and well worth a decent slot this year. Spoke to Chris and Rou and they have both confirmed this rumour so rock on!

  151. GILLY

    if razorshite play i will eat my own face, i cannot stand them at all…….ever, jonny borrell makes me vomit up my own intestines i hate him that much……………………….GRR!

  152. COWMAN

  153. bob

  154. stevo

  156. Razz

    Funeral For A Friend are playing ive hard on other sites

  157. The_Rose

    Sir Ian Brown definately got to headline this year would be class to see!!theres other whispers like rage were gonna play coz they tourin the states n smashin pumpkins.

  158. Sammy D

    my mate is part o mean fiddler and he rekons that
    Smiling Ivy
    are a pretty much deffinate to play on the carling tent. i really hope so there amazing!

  159. pheebs

    do any of these oasis rumours have any foundation? it would be immense if they play i’ve always wanted to see them!

  160. Branz

    Klaxons all the way!

    Really hope the bloc party and kings of leon play

    RHCP would be awesome Headliners

    would also love to see HIM but tht is very highly unlikely :(

  161. christian

    im seeing enter shikari for the 3rd time on friday in manchester
    i can see them gettin a very good slot to be honest
    they are fuckin amazing live

  162. JAk2d2

    yo i also heard smiling ivy were playin . i hope they do they are fukin wikid, hopefully on the mainstage.

  163. matt

    Get Profane playing. Amazing Manc metal band!!!

  164. George

    Anyone got any ideas about the Dance Tent?

    If Daft Punk played, I would probably pay double for my ticket haha.

    Alternatively, Royksopp, Soulwax, Goose, Pendulum, Justice would all be AMAZING.

    Can’t wait for this year!!

  165. Amanda

    I would most like to see HIM first and foremost!! As they’re releasing an album sometime around that time…..
    I would love for Avenged Sevenfold to play as they played Download last year.
    Ummm….. I think Evanescence, Within Temptation or Lacuna Coil would be awesome!!!
    Fall out boy will probably end up playing Leeds again this year, as will Panic! at the disco. Maybe.

    Anyway, whatever happens I hope the line up is good!!!

  166. indie-kid.com

    although i would love ian brown to play what has he done recently? greatest hits cant be the only logical answer? the same with oasis! i would love them to play but i havnt heard them even thinking of creating a new album under big brother yet so where are these rumours coming from?? the view ABSOLOUTELY HAVE TO!!!!! they seem to be on of the biggest bands to come out of the new band mist along with the gossip. wouldnt mind smashing pumpkins playin their pretty fookin amazing! any definates yet? my hopes are for bloc party, view, kasabian, klaxons, radiohead, wolfmother and babyshambles. im crossing my fingers that dirty pretty things will be able to release an album before the summer, cos they were shit-hot at leeds last year!

  167. paul

    kasabian wont play cos there playing v…same goes for babyshambles

  168. dr faustus

    three bands i would pay anything to see at leeds:

    Radiohead (i’d settle for thom)

    Coldpay

    Wolfmother

  169. lozza

    I want to see the all american rejects play. they are amazing … and jimmy eat world of course!

  170. dhn

    hardly anyone’s mentioned the white stripes; they’ve got a new album out soon and they haven’t headlined for like three years

  171. KC

    KAISER CHIEFS KAISER CHIEFS KAISER CHIEFS KAISER CHIEFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! our home band, the best band we could ask for!!!! GET EM THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!XXX

  172. tl

    i hope rage against the machine play grrr:@

  173. kate

    i think that sonic youth are playing in london a week before the carling weekend so they should play at leeds as well

    oh and when the line up is announced on the 26th of march i hope that the line up is what NME say it is. (apparently NME hasn’t been wrong three times in a row) hoping that smashing pumpkins red hot chillys are play tho i hate razorlight!

  174. Marc

    RHCP, THE SMASHING PUMPKINS, THE KILLERS
    WILL HEADLINE.
    HOPEFULLY loads of good bands on lock up like norma jean, thrice,coheed

  175. Steve

    if rage do play i think i would probably shit my self with excitement!

  176. ellie

    i hope the shitty strummy guitar bands like razorlight, the fratellies, the view and the fray all die! RUBBIISSHHHHHH

  177. definately maybe

    Ive heard a few places now that oasis are rumoured to headline. I hope so. And shutup, razorlight shit all over red hot chili peppers

  178. christian

    i bought the daily star paper today
    and in joe motts music section he said i can exclusivley reveal the headliners for leeds/reading festival are

    RAZORLIGHT
    SMASHING PUMPKINS
    RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS

    IM NOT A HAPPY CHAPPIE!

  179. liam porter

    The Beatles, Nirvana, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, James Brown, Elvis & The Stone Roses

  180. stargirlbex

    MON THE BIFFY!!!!!!!!!!!!! :DDDDDDD met them yesterday lol

    That makes two us…IF these are the headliners i’m guessing it will be The Billy Corgan Ego Wank on Friday / Razorlight Saturday / Junkies on Sunday night.

    Was hoping for Tool to headline friday night but guess i’ll have to do with one guys solo project re branded as The Smashing PumpkinsTM

  182. AMBER

    WE WANT THE AQUABATS!!!!!! + the cure + the slackers + PAVEMENT *cries*

  183. AMBER

    and WEEN! How could I forget Ween.. and Jeffrey Lewis and the Distillers and Reel Big Fish and Tenacious D and the Phenomenauts and the AQUABATS again

    + get some ska on there? Ska would be massively appreciated. Fun-fun-funn.

    and the Aquabats.

    None of the above are actual rumours.. not yet. I may start some and spread them so much that the above actually begin to believe that they are playing Leeds.

  184. Claire xXx

    I’m realllly hoping for The Used….. but they don’t seem to be in any circle of rumours, but Lostprophets are and I would LOVE to see them play so I’m hopeful for that. I’d like to see the Chilis too and they’re really strongly rumoured to headline. Hopefully it’ll be a good enough line-up to make up for me missing it last year. I got pre-sale tickets that day after the festival last year for this year, so I’m definately going.

    please dont have so much indie:/ it bores me loads. we want metal! or anything that isnt indie tbh. Aiden maybe? trivium? bfmv? please:)
    razorlight bore me to death etc. enter shikari? yes? maybe? OK
    thanks^^

  188. eddi

    will people please shut up about RATM! yes i would love them to play (audioslave would be better but now they HAVE split up) but it’s not going to happen. their manager has confirmed that they’re playing just four dates in 2007, ALL in america. so please shut up. it gets people hopes up. and as for muse, get a life! why would the organises put the same band (great or not) headlining two years in a row. PLUS, headliners look set to be
    friday- smashing pumpkins
    saturday- razorlight (however there may be a band above them eg killers)
    sunday- RHCP
    personally i think thats awful, chilis being only one truly deserving of slot but i’m sure we’ll get over it. After all, franz friggin’ ferdinand headlined last year.
    btw, oasis won’t play mean fiddler cannot afford them, realism now, they can’t afford most of the really big bands. AC/DC would be great but they were dead certs for download and never ended up playing. My Chem will probs ply they are EVERYWHERE and aerosmith won’t ’cause their only UK date is Hyde Park Calling, which could end up being amazing if other headliner is good. bloc party and klaxons will play. we are scientists probs won’t as they need to record new album, funeral will play, and will lostprophets on the friday. trivium probs will too, making it the worst leeds metal day ever

    PS
    [email protected] if you think its any different tell me but i think i’m 90% correct.

    According to a very reliable source i know said the headliners will be Razorshite, Smashing pumpkins, RHCP. He knew what the headliners were last year about a month before the festival he helps set up the festival.

  194. anonymous

    If you want metal bands, go to download. Last years lineup was incredible, more like that please!!

  195. Jaaambiiii

    Yeah i think Billy Corgan / Razorwank / Red hot smack heads is pretty much confirmed now.

    Our hope lies in the other bands rumoured - Tool, Bloc Party, Interpol, FFAF, Deftones, …Trail Of Dead, Arcade Fire (??) , Interpol, Trivium, Gojira (?)

  196. Brucie Bruce :)

    ‘Dan the man’ you would have trouble with Babyshambles & The Libertines playing, since The Libertines no longer excist, and BabyShambles is Pete Doherty’s new band you daft prat! lolz ^_^

  197. jimmy m

    kings of leon and bloc party havce both confirmed on their own websites!!

  201. the doctor

    why are you wasting your time rumouring bands like metallica, motley crue, velvet revolver, muse, my chem, arctic monkeys etc. headliners always follow a pattern. one heavy, one popular, one indie. at least one of them is always a legendary (see 2005 when 3 legends did it). Also any band that played in the top 3 last year, will NOT return. Promise. And at the end of the day, dont think about what would be awesome for you, think about what will get the festival sold out quicker than any other. The festival aims to make money. they will not do that with headliners like the ones people have suggested. frankly, the rumours of chilis, razorlight and pumpkins seem pretty logical (even if they will be kinda dull).

  202. Branz

    why does every1 hate indie so much
    if u want all of this metal then go somewhere else
    cant wait to get my glowsticks out for the klaxons!
    also why does everyone like RATM so much, i really dont like em
    p.s Arcade Fires new Album is awesome so itd be great to see them there

  203. Lucy

    get a bit of pop-punk in there!
    last year new found glory said they’d be coming back twice this year, one’s GIAN and the other?? LEEDS PLEASE! :)
    +44 are right legends.
    Less Than Jake, yes please.
    Angels & Airwaves, so i can shout at Tom for leaving Blink, bastard.
    Be Your Own Pet!

    i can say that whoever is playing at download and v festival won’t play.
    check the websites i cba listing
    :D

  206. davelms

    @ metalboy - Leeds has never been a metal festival !

  207. christian

    alls i can say its music is very opinionated
    people bascially listen to what they want
    indie/metal/pop/trance whatever it may be its all based on opinions
    there is no such thing as shit music cos u listen to the stuff u like!!!

    as long as i get to see enter shikari for the 4th time im not arsed who plays
    saw them in manchester again on 9th march…..absolute amazing live band
    fuckin so entertaining it was unreal
    if any1 hasnt seen them live you need to do so

  212. peniss

    chil’s razorlight and smashing pumpkins are said to be headlining

  213. anonymous

    kings of leon arcade fire and ian brown are pretty much certs and its worth fucking going for those three no doubt, the headliners have always been a let down for me anyway

    hadouken, css, erol alkan and crystal castles would be a bonus

  214. metalboy

    @ DAVELMS

    and i quote on many sites

    “Musically, the festival has seen a return to its heavy metal roots”

    well…..

  215. davelms

    … doesn’t make any of them right ! LEEDS has never been a metal festival.

    Reading used to be a rock(ier) festival, but Reading & Leeds as a dual-site festival is relatively new concept (last 8 years or so).

    Leeds headliners in recent years have been Charlatans, Oasis, Travis, Strokes, Linkin Park, Darkness, Pixies, Franz Ferdinand. Hardly metal now is it??

    Before Leeds joined with Reading as a dual-site, it was paired as a V Festival site, which is even more indie than it is today.

    I suspect that you’re quoting Reading festival origins, not Leeds, or if you are quoting Leeds sites they’re factually wrong.

  216. +44fan

    I heard Smashing Pumpkins and RATM are definately playing,
    and am hoping for +44, Alexisonfire, Kaiser Chiefs and loads more :)

  217. metalboy

    hope the killers are playing they were amazing at newcastle any1 kno if the killers will be there ?

  221. christian

    nah killers wont be there now
    they headlined in 2005 and its looking like the big names have already been named
    being razorlight smashin pumpkins and rhcp

    cant see killers playing below them

  222. metalboy

    audioslave has split up boys and girls, the singer left, but that leaves previously rage against the machine minus one singer, hmmm i wonder who can join them…….. zach de la rocha!
    xxxxxxxxx

  223. Becky-Louiseeeee

    highly unlike that the kaisers will play & motley crue - what a gutter :(!
    and +44? Rather rub myself on a blender to be frank!

    prodigy would be fuckin immense!
    enter shikari will be a good laugh.
    the gossip & klaxons will attract a good crowd.

    but tbh the only people i’m sure on playing, i think, are the chillis & maybe the fratellis.

  224. Amy!!!

    IM GOING TO BE AT LEEDS!!!!!! IM BUYIN MY TICKET AS SOON AS THEY COME ON SALE!! WOO! anyone else who is goin leeds add me mofo’s [email protected]

  226. Sixx-6-6

    Doubt Motley Crue will play at the Carling Weekend now they have been confirmed for Download.

  227. scott 9-9-9

    anyone heard if oasis will be there? and is rhcp pretty much for sure?

  228. pete doherty

    will people plz shut the fuck up about metal and rock. if they wanna listen to that fine take your spotty arses to dowload. its an indy festival. btw last year dizzie rascal, the streets and lethal bizz was fun so more of that. Ive never seen smashing pumpkins so if the rumours r true it will b amazin 2 c em coz there not going to b round much longer.

  229. randyhobbit

    i reallly wanna see white stripes and kings of leon!!! white stripes are getting a new album out soon so its mebbe a poss. but am well sad coz theres no rumours of them playing :(

  230. sian

    personally I’d like to see :

    Taking Back Sunday (fosho although it doesn’t look like it)
    Lostprophets
    Panic!
    +44
    Less than Jake
    Red Hot Chili Peppers.
    My Chemical Romance
    Razorlight
    Oasis
    Sum 41
    All American Rejects
    Feeder
    Foo Fighters
    Gym Class heroes
    Motion City Soundtrack
    Sugarcult.

    Although I expect maybe 2 or 3 from that list will actually be there

  231. jjjjenna

    Looks Like:
    Main Stage either Red Hot Chili’s, Metallica, AC/DC, Smashing Pumpkins or Oasis. so pick you’re best 3. i REALLY hope the chili’s do though! someone who hasnt headlined in the last 3 years hopefully!

    interpol or tool maybe

    who i hope for is bloc party! but doubt they’ll headline seeing as they’ve only brought out 2 albums. but i guess if they’re going to pull a my chemical romance and download that may happen!
    and they best not be on the nme stage like the bloody kooks were, so you cant ou, and klaxons!

    im not too fussed, i’ll be going who ever plays im sure they’ll be quite a few decent bands. the campings the best part!

  232. jjjjenna

    kings of leon have brought out a new single as well!

  233. elle

    flood of red should play! woo
    if ratm played i think id actually shit myself :D

  234. elle

    cause they are the best band to have played on this earth and always will be i love these guys they are so talented, love them, please please please hope there playing at leeds fest this year, it would make my weekend!

  239. Jay

    Well as alot of you have said, RATM and Smashing Pumpkins are just about confirmed deifnates for headliners. be a bit dissapointed if razorlight are there though, by all mean let them be there but not headlining. Im really dissapointed with the fact that dream theater are playin download this year instead of leeds. Theyre my favourite band, and tbh they have more talent than most of the leeds line up combined. Best drummer on the planet, one of the best guitarists in the world, and the best bassist in the world. yet surprisingly alot of people havent heard of them. Ideally id have dream theater headlining along with RATM and the pumpkins, not a huge fan of them but still, dream theater own razorlight and basically most bands lol

    maybe a bit old leeds fests but only a handful of amazing bands have come out this year

    I would actually die if JME plays!

    and sorry to put a downer on the fest but i reckon theres a good chance that little “ghetto” over commercialised lady soverign will be playing

  242. Tom

    Well, going on the fact that NIN have a set of gigs rescheduled for around the time of Leeds weekend, I’d bank on them being on the bill somewhere.

    All of these ‘new-ish’ indie bands should NOT be headlining. Razorlight? Don’t make me laugh…!

  243. anonymous

    The FRAY plz if there is a GOD

  244. Lucy182

    Red Hot Chillis bore me… hope they dont headline!
    Razorlight are just as crap. maybe even crappier.

    As I said before, plenty of pop-punk/ ska and it will be great!!
    FUUUUUUUNNNN!!

    Fall Out Boy were so good last year, who was in the bottle fight??? haha
    As were Be Your Own PET.
    & i’d recommend watching +44, for one you get to see sexy Hoppus & they’re really good live! :D

    No boring formulaic Indie bands please!

  245. metalboy

  249. mr_amazing

    Muse are garanteed to headline, and I hope Kings of leon are playing, or even queens of the stoneage

  250. Paul, LEEDS!

    I know the headliners, so the people thinking muse will headline twice…

    YOU’RE WRONG!!!!!!

    The headliners are…

    RAZORLIGHT
    RED HOT CHILIS
    THE SMASHING PUMPKINS!!!!

    I know this because NME announce them every year, and have not been wrong yet.

    I’m pretty sure there will be some other bands there. Likely to attend are

    Fall Out Boy
    The Frattellis
    Lostprophets
    Incubus
    Alkaline Trio

  251. davelms

    Yeah, Muse headlined last year. And, I agree, it seems quite certain those three are headlining this year. Although Razorlight seems a little odd choice to me, not really of headlining quality are they. Hey ho.

  252. the doctor

    I have reason to believe its NOT chilis and razorlight(thank god). I have rumours for manic street preachers, stereophonics, oasis, THE WHO, metallica and Beck.

    Other bands rumoured that are quite likely; Modest Mouse (god i hope so) interpol, sigur ros, the shins, the fratellis, bright eyes, the killers (possibly a headliner but not certain). Please stop rumouring bands just because you like them. Im talking to you all you scenesters. you clearly dont know how festivals work. My chem wont be invited back after their poor reception last year. Arctic monkeys played to high up to come back and the idea of the three headliners all being the likes of metallica, tool, ac/dc etc. is rubbish. one of them maybe. but not all 3.

  253. davelms

    Not sure if this means anything, but didn’t RHCP headline T In The Park last year?

  254. Paul, LEEDS!

    Ok, “the doctor”. I put money on it being those 3. i know razorlight is a poor choice. but chilis would be a pretty clear choice for mean fiddler. the killers have said they aren’t in an interview, but i would have thought they would have been a better choice than razorlight. the 3 headliners have always been recent, long running, and old school.
    this lot fit that.

    T in the park last year means very little. leeds fest has always followed a similar rule of thumb. either the band is a big scoop, fits the headliner rule, or has had a new album out in the past year ish before the fest. also they have bands who have been popular in the past year, hence kaisers in ‘06

  255. anonymous

    i’d absolutely cream if these wer the headliners:
    Red Hot Chili Peppers
    Rage Against The Machine
    Oasis

    Smashing Pumpkins and razorlight can go fuck themselves THEY’RE SHITE!

    Saw Enter Shikari last friday they wer fuckin mint, hope they play

    Fratellis, Klaxons, Kasabian, LITTLE MAN TATE, The View, Biffy Clyro and We Are Scientists PLEASE!!!!

  256. anonymous

    it would be great to see Sonic youth and dinosaur jr. Arcade fire and nine inch nails also.

  257. Yeti

    Rise Against self confirmed last year. I’d put my money on them playing again.

    I’d like to see Bad religion, Alkaline Trio and NoFX playing again… I missed the trio and Nofx because I was feeling ill in my tent after having well over the recommended dose of herbal highs. They were shit and all.

    Here’s to hoping!

  258. anonymous

    prophets, enter shikari, the gossip, the fray, klaxons, biffy, RATM, oasis, blur!

  259. tom g

    why doesnt leeds get back to the metal side of the fuckin festival..

    chillis?
    razorshite?
    smashing pumpkins?

    SNORRRRREEEEEEEEE!!

    this is such an awful bunch of headliners it just cant be true, fuckin hope the manics are there like!

  260. Mike

    Actually last year nme said arcitc monkeys would be headlineing and they were just under muse, they usually get them right in terms of bands that play, but they r usually wrong in their headline guesses =]

  261. JOANNE

    kings of leon, anyone out about them playing?
    i proper hope they do!

  262. JOANNE

    i meant heard anything about them playing?

  263. Saw76

    If All american reject play again, I will shoot them. I quite liked them, till I saw them live. the BASTARDS.
    And Aquabats all the way! and Me First and the Gimme Gimme Gimme’s! that would pwn.
    Doubt fish’ll be there again this year, or LTJ- Kings of leon were awesome (was it last year or the year before?) so I’d like to see them again.
    We met the view last year! they were walking around handing out badges, telling us how they were gonna be the next big thing and we laughed in their face.
    That was a smart move…
