Found this rumour which is apparently from someone at Mean fiddler (people who organise the festivals) for this years Reading and Leeds lineup. Apparently they have confirmed these people. Take it with a pinch of salt, but its quite realistic in terms of how bands are already booked up and some bands that are quite likely to play. The actual lineup will be published soon. Festival starts 22nd of August, BE THERE OR BE AN OBLONG!

Youv'e missed out the Blackout for a start. But that lineup sound pretty ok.

The blackout could be a possibility but noone has posted any strong rumours on them, and as they are a very supportive band of Lostprophets who are playing at Download, its unlikely.
