Frequently Asked Questions - Lineup
Who is playing? How many stages are there? When is the lineup announced?
A: Nope - not until FR produce a timetable but if you look at previous years, you should be able to link the acts to this year and get a pretty reasonable list going.
A: Depends what "events" you mean?
A: This will be released in the weeks running up to the festival
A: ZERO
This question has been asnwered several times. Officially, there is no confirmation of bands playing.
http://www.strictlyreading.co.uk/story/reading-festival-2008-rumours has the latest rumours. Lineup announced on the 31st
A: Yes - sell loads of records :-)
Seriously though - at the moment, it only looks like Leeds has an unsigned tent. However, Reading does have the Nokia tent where your band can play a few songs. You'll have to check the official site for more details but as soon as any become available, we'll update this site sooner than you can say booya.
A: This is a Reading Festival site! Also, they both have identical lineups so any news/rumours regarding the lineup for Reading will apply to Leeds. http://www.strictlyleeds.co.uk is the Leeds version of this site.
A: We are not 100% but we presume it will be on the 24th March or the Monday before
A: We do not know for sure. There are faint rumours all over the place for every band under the sun. Once we get anything more positive, we'll add it to the site.
A: We very much doubt it.
[update] There are now rumours that they might play - and if they will ever play Reading, it will be a headlining spot. They are touring around June so this will not be out the question.[/update]
