Saturday’s Main Stage Special Guests

Who would you like to see play the Main Stage on Saturday?

The current posters suggest there will be “Special Guests” on the Main Stage on the Saturday.

Over on our 2009 Line Up page, you’re speculating who it might be with Blink 182 and Green Day your current favourites.

In previous years, due to embargoes on announcements “Special Guests” have sometimes turned out to be bands playing at one of the other UK Festivals – so perhaps it’s a band listed on the line up for Download, V Festival or T In The Park.

So which band would you like to see and who do you think it might be?

    wtf man…Katy Perry, seriously? she sucks ASS

    I’d love to see Muse or Depeche Mode but those are headliners…

    Maybe MGMT? or Death Cab for Cutie?

    are you’s fucking idiots?
    katy perry and ting ting, real music? wtf!?!
    complaining about metalheads, look at the headliners and mainstage bands
    personally think its gunna be someone like pendulum, 36crazyfists, all american rejects or bowling for soup

    What are you on about katy perry and ting tings this is leeds fest people . . . Real music! Ide love blink to Be there seriously that would make my life complete! Or arcade fire that’d be amazing. But Aslong as rise against stay put on The lockup stage im happy :-)

  5. naomi says:

    well, with Alexisonfire playing Sunday at leeds, they’ll most probably be travelling from Reading as soon as they finish Friday night, leading me to believe there’s a possibility that Dallas would do a set? So City and Colour? I would be able to die happy if that was the case, so fingers crossed!

    (ps why is everyone rooting for bands that just don’t fit in with the leeds agenda? Katy Perry? it’ll be lady gaga next!)

    dont be dizzzyy get some green day or blink reppin. need someone good not katy perry ting ting’s or mcfly. maybe babyshambles?green day are coming to uk about that time. blink might well be.

  7. Dan Hayes says:

    Personally i would LOVE to see Mcfly there as the special guests, there would really get the crowd going, and the mosh pits would be crazy! Please.. GET THEM BOOKED! But i cant see that happening as reading is full of Stupid metal fans, who do not have a clue when it comes down to music, they need to appreciate some DECENT music like Alphabeat..

  8. Lee Gammage says:

    No mark im not stupid, katy Perry would be absolutley amazing! she would definatley make my weekend.. dunno about you but i see her as one of the greatest pop acts of all time.

  9. tuhhh says:

    it’s gonna be calvin harris
    he was asked what festivals he was playing n said ‘wakestock etc and on other that i’m not allowed to say’

  10. Mark Jones says:

    Lee and Jordan are you stupid? Why do you even go to reading suggesting bands like that, seriously if thats what you think you need to stay at home with mummy and daddy.

  11. Jordan Potter says:

    I dont like bands like kings of leon arctic monkeys and radiohead, we need some proper bands like the ting tings.

  12. Lee Gammage says:

    I would love a bit of Katy perry, seems unlikely at the moment but think she would go down well as she has some good sing a long tunes, i would enjoy it :)
