Sum 41

[luckysalt]

No this isn't a thread saying they're playing

and I know Ive mentioned them a lot so far

and theres a lot of people wanting them

Well the past week they were announced to be playing in Portugal 2 weeks before Download

Well now they've just announced they're playing in France Thursday 10th June.

SURELY they're playing now!

5th top of mainstage on Friday? Would be a nice start to the weekend with Hayseed Dixie below them!

There's still a few slots on the Saturday / Sunday mainstage too so they could get slotted in the middle of Saturday.

I hope so, I wrote them off as just a random pop act that had 15 minutes of fame in the nu-metal fad, but the albums they released after, which no one bought, are actually pretty dam good.

[luckysalt]

I think they could fit in main stage Saturday, theres only 7 bands announced so far on there

Hopefully a main stage slot just before or after Andrew W.K. would make for a fun-filled afternoon for sure!!!

I assume you stopped listening to them once they went out of fashion?

Their new stuff imo is undoubtedly better then anything they put out in the nu-metal fad and far more consistent, just it hasn't got a lucurative marketing budget to go with it anymore...

[jammy2211]

For the record I was never in fashion. I was short, fat with long curly ginger hair. What was in fashion was not my concern.

I stopped listening to them when they put out that shit 4th record. I still listen to All Killer and Half Hour of Power but personally i don't rate their new stuff. Avril Lavigne got in Wibleys head!
