Gozpot Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'd say both Skindred and Feeder are possible as that poster has them however i can only see one of the two alongside a larger headliner. Maybe someone like Brand New, The Offspring, Weezer etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what happened with the exclusivity thing. Only thing I can think of is that Reading and Leeds weren't fussed about sharing Shikari with Slam Dunk where there's less emphasis on the headliner and it isn't as close to Reading and Leeds. Often see some bands crossover between Slam Dunk and Reading and Leeds I suppose. Not really sure who will headline now though. What happened is that Shikari are too big for 2000 Trees, it would heavily go against their progress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are talking Reading sized lockup headliners/6th down at the highest on main stage. They only ask £40 for a day ticket and I don't even think it's that at the start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavmeisterdeluxe Posted November 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 (edited) This forum is odd sometimes on mobile. I'll repeat that and hopefully some letters will show up this time! Twin Atlantic are probably a bit bigger but LTA's next tour is the same size (bar Scotland) as TA's biggest was.

Pop Punk Sucks Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Thought they were very underwhelming at Reading this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavmeisterdeluxe Posted November 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Yeah they were. Mainly down to Mike clearly shitting himself at being on main stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Punk Sucks Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 That's the only concern I'd have. It's a smaller festival of course, but not really what you want to see from someone potentially headlining a festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Lower Than Atlantis have become the most vanilla, 'nice rock music for nice radio listeners' band going. They were utter crap at Leeds this year. Dull as dishwater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntyyy Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Ooh ooh ooh. What if architects headlined aswell as sub headlining the second stage at download??????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Punk Sucks Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Would be a very bold booking for them and certainly a lot more exciting than Lower Than Atlantis. LTA probably a better booking for their general demographic though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Are At the Drive-In too big for this? Not an exclusive at R/L and, other than Glastonbury, this is where immediately sprung to mind for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rawaudioinput Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 I imagine they'd be more likely to play ArcTanGent, it's the weekend before R&L so they'll be in Europe at the time They'd fit at either though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday by far the strongest day this year for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or BST exclusive supporting Green Day? I think the other headliner will be more down that Punk end of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
