We understand that Friday at Reading and Saturday at Leeds will be headlined by Rage Against The Machine. Other main stage bands on this day include Biffy Clyro, Taking Back Sunday, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly and Anti Flag. Babyshambles are understood to be headlining the Radio 1 tent supported by The Wombats.

Saturday at Reading / Sunday at Leeds - The Killers headline the main stage, ably backed up by Bloc Party, The Raconteurs, Editors, We Are Scientists, Dirty Pretty Things and The Subways. Manic Street Preachers headline the Radio 1/NME tent with Bullet For My Valentine, Justice and Foals also confirmed.

The NME can exclusively reveal…absolutely nothing about Reading/Leeds. Punktastic, however, we can tell you that on Sunday at Reading / Friday at Leeds Metallica will headline the main stage with Tenacious D, Slipknot and Feeder also confirmed. The Cribs headline the Radio 1/NME tent and Pendulum are also confirmed to play.

Kasabian - rumoured to play last year but didn’t. Things do point to a main stage appearance this year though after various interviews and touring dates.

Would be a decent British headliner compared to Razortripe and if with RATM and Metallica… would anyone argue at the notion that it would be one of the best sets of headliners ever???

Personally, I don’t think too highly of them, purely because of Doherty, but musically they are reasonably talented.

I’d be surprised if they got mainstage, but you never know!
