There are also several Twitter pages speculating as to who may perform over the next few days.

Twitter page Reading and Leeds Possibles (@RandLPossibles) have already correctly predicted a set from Jake Bugg and rock band You Me At Six, with other suggestions on their Twitter page.

Another Twitter account under the name The RandL Mill (@TheRandLMill) are rooting for the return of IDLES after eagle-eyed fans noticed gaps in their tour dates aligned with the festival dates.
