Why not? We know the lineup tends to mean that Sunday is the heavier of the 3 days. It still is this year. Eminem has headlined Sunday previously. Melvin Benn had this to say:
Wait for the final lineup to be announced. Even then, it's not 100% untill the band play 2 sets on the day.
LIke last year, we hope so
Over the coming weeks and months
More should be released
Look at the lineup poster. If they are not there yet, we don't know.
Over the coming weeks and months. We will be first with confirmed acts.
A lot
Sorry but that doesn't make any sense.
Main stage - any genre
Dance stage - dance
Lock-Up stage - punk N.B. the dance stage is also the lock-up stage but on different days
FR stage - any genre
BBC Intoducing stage - any genre
Depends - maybe every week or every few weeks.
Just before 7pm on 30th March. The lineup is always released moments before tickets go on sale.
No one knows the exact figures but a 7 to 8 figure price tag is often banded around. Decent headliners will get at least £1m
It will be towards the end of March, on a Monday. Maybe even start of April.
We do not know when the official Leeds Festival lineup will be released until closer to the date.
Rumours are never true until they are up on the poster. In fact, Leeds Festival rumours aren't true until a band have played a full set on stage.
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.
We have got information the Leeds Festival 2008 lineup if needed.
Depends what "events" you mean?
This will be released in the weeks running up to the festival.
Officially, there is no confirmation of bands playing as yet (forLeeds Festival 2009). However when we do have information, you can see the official Leeds Festival 2009 Lineup.
In the time between now and then, you can check out the Leeds Festival 2009 rumours.
Yes - sell loads of records :-)
Seriously though - at the moment, it only looks like Leeds has an unsigned tent. However, Leeds 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.
This is a Leeds Festival site! Also, they both have identical lineups so any news/rumours regarding the lineup for Leeds will apply to Leeds. http://www.strictlyleeds.co.uk is the Leeds version of this site.
