If some bands can't make it, they can't make it. We should be ecstatic that we are (hopefully) getting a festival at all after the year we've had.
Something I've noticed a bit recently is people who were giving it 'I miss gigs so much' 'I can't wait for gigs/festivals to return' etc. complaining that they aren't quite enough bands on the line up they like or that prices have gone up a bit. You didn't miss it that much then, did you. Don't go, there will be a thousand others waiting in line behind you.
If travel restrictions are in place that could mean, at worse, 50-70% of the line up having to pull out. If that does happen, I think Slam Dunk will still go ahead and they could replace a decent chunk of that with presumably weaker line up with mainly British bands though I think it would be pretty dodgy if Slam Dunk didn't at least offer some sort of compensation.
That being said I'm getting my weekend ticket tomorrow as I would rather have something than nothing after all of this.

Brand New are coming back?
Oh I was talking about Twin Atlantic. I thought that was mention earlier but I hadn't ahaha

Wasn't that because they were looking for a replacement for Brand New?
We think they were a replacement for Brand New but even if that is true it's more likely due to them being at Slam Dunk that year as well. I can see them being brought in this year if the festival is allowed to go ahead and overseas travel restrictions force them to rebook the US headliners.
-
In the past the majority of the line up is normally out by the end of March but that's not always the case. I think it wasn't until May until we got the last headliner in 2018 and I reckon it'll be around May time this year as well.

So The Menzingers will clash with JEW? That's likely a no now. The distance and the cost isn't worth it now and to take a days holiday.
While Trees normally has The Axiom headliners on at the same time as the main stage headliners, they have changed it for artists with similar fanbases in the past. They did this in 2019 with Frank Turner and Jamie Lenman. I think it's highly probable they'll do the same for Menzos and JEW so Crossfaith will clash with JEW instead.
-
The Wonder Years and Code Orange not coming back has put me off a bit but given that this maybe one of the few fests to run this year and my mates are all going I'll probably still be there.
-
They gave a hint out a few months ago about the final headliner.

Really doesn't seem like it's going to be Architects
-
Early entry tickets sold out on the general sale but you can get them in the installment plan though you can't get the discount as payment plan is a minimum of £20.
-
Finally got this booked off work but I'm not sure that it will go ahead but Trees seem to be going full steam ahead. Luckily with the crowdfunder they are finically secure so if a last minute cancelation happens it will be ok for 2022.
I think that their final headliner should probably be a British one incase there are still issues with overseas artists coming over to play. With that in mind I wouldn't mind it if Trees went back to an all British line up again. Could be quite interesting.
-
Really hope that Touche Amore get added to the Friday. The new album is great and the new songs work really well live judging from the livestream last night.

I suggested Pixies as a curveball headliner to my mates the other week and I think they wouldn't go down too badly. That being said I do not think that they are at all likely for this.
-
Headliners for the Cave and the main don't often clash but last year While She Sleeps headlined the Cave and played at the same time as Frank Turner.
I reckon that the same will happen for JEW and Crossfaith so JEW don't clash with Menzos.

Now that's more like it! Knocked Loose, The World Is..., Higher Power, Black Peaks, Wytches, Svalbard, Press to Meco, Nervus and Leeched.
Why can't the other days be like that for me

Hoping for Converge and The Bronx to be annouced
Converge were in Europe in the week of Trees last year (or very close to it). If they were going to play it would have been then. Would love for them to play however, incredible band.

Almost certain I've heard that Spanish love songs aren't booked
Gutted if this is true and given that Knocked Loose basically pulled out this year I reckon that they won't be here next year either. So I'm basically only left with The World Is... out of my desired 3 that might show up. Can't say I blame SLS given all the uncertainty that's still around. Hoping that they show up in 2022 then.

Both would have been the most ideal situation
. And as much as I love Menzos, I have seen them play a bunch more times and generally prefer SLS but that won't stop me going down to the front if this goes ahead.

Definitely not as big a line up as the Thursday... wonder if there are a few bigger bands still to come?
Certainly more bands to come but I'm not too sure if they will be bigger artist.
Also I don't know if it's just me but isn't Laura Jane Grace playing in a spot that Against Me! could play anyways? Like, compared to the Thursday Against Me! seem they'd be the right size so why not get them all instead of just her solo?
-
Less keen on that than yesterday, starting to think that I may like this line up less than this years. Only two bands I care about on there are Ithaca and Fresh.
Also starting to get a bit worried that Knocked Loose, Spanish Love Songs and The World Is... are all not returning for next year which I hope is not the case considering they were the 3 bands I was looking forward to the most this year.
-
-
Really happy with The Menzingers but just overall a meh day for me. Hoping the other two days are a bit better for me. I really want Spanish Love Songs and The World Is... to return and hoping for a few bands like Loathe and Employed to Serve play.
-
Looks like Thrice back then. I think that's their name on the Friday.

Architects? Have a feeling there one of the headliners
Well they way are doing it seems to me that they're going to leave one headliner out of the announcement. Anyways my guess is that Afi will be announced on Monday.
-
The majority of the line (around 90%) is being revealed next week. Got an announcement everyday
Monday - Main stage headliner
Tuesday - Thursday line up
Wednesday - Friday line up
Thursday - Saturday line up
Friday - Forrest stageCan imagine that most of the lineup for this year will run over to next but still hoping for one or two surprises.

The new exhalants album is really good. It's some old school noisy post hardcore with quite a punch. Would recommend if you're a into stuff like Big Black, Drive Like Jehu, Jesus Lizard, Unwound and Slint.
