How soon does work resume on Reading and Leeds after the festival takes place? It doesn’t resume, it never stops. This is why R and L boss Melvin Benn has been able to tell NME that three of 2022’s six headliners are already booked.
Of course, he’s not said who yet, that’ll have a big build up, but he has dropped some hints: one of the three has headlined before… and “some of them have guitars…” Which means… well it’s pin in map time really isn’t it.
Would it be a re-booking of the US acts who couldn’t make it this year, like QOTSA or Machine Gun Kelly? No that simple:” As you’ve seen from 2020 into this year, we don’t just rebook acts for the sake of it. What we want to do is book a relevant festival every year, and not just rebook the acts who have cancelled.”
