still mentions of kiss floating around apparently, these lads are involved at thrash hits. I'm sure Raz was on the metal hammer podcast last year.

KISS and Queen at Download is a really terrible idea isnt it. FNM are good tho.

..if it is Kiss and FNM, then sign me up!

I very much doubt it's Kiss.

What I've heard is that they can't find a third headliner. I doubt that an attempt to get Kiss would be so far down their list that they've only got around to asking themn in the last couple of weeks.

I wonder what they trying to do now? Possibly offer loads of money to get someone like Muse, Green Day etc who aren't touring and hope it sells out to cover it, get someone who wouldn't be universally popular like Nickelback, Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance but are touring this year or push someone up like Bullet For My Valentine, Queens Of The Stone Age but that's a short list of who could work and hasn't been booked elsewhere already.

It just occured to me that even though they have 2 headliners booked already alot/some of the undercard may not be yet. Last year on Biffy day they had a few acts like Weezer that fitted in well under them so without the last headliner in place they might be having trouble booking a sub to match and deciding which bands play on what day saying that tho 2010 was pretty mish-mash.

The rumours for Kiss have been around for a long time now though.

exactly. So I'd think that if there was anything to it they'd have them signed up or very close to signing up.

Word I've heard (a few weeks old now, and it might not be accurate) is that there was no 3rd headliner on the horizon.

...smaller Friday headliner, cheaper ticket!....that would probably considered a step back though I guess.

Any more updates on possible announcment? Excuse me if this has already been discussed.

    • Muse will be about but the issue with Muse is that they’ll have the pick of doing IOW, BST, Glasto, R&L or big parks/stadiums.

    • Not sure what this means for 2027 but it looks like Holt Farm's website and email are both now inactive and unavailable.   It'll be a shame if they don't operate for 2027 as it was an excellent alternative to the other off-site offerings.   Fingers crossed they're just enjoying their downtime 🤞
    • Deftones, Blink, Muse?   Deftones as the next bump up makes all the sense, Blink as the "band that has never played before" and round out with Muse as its been a long time since they headlined and they have a new album coming which seems on the heavier side from the singles so far.   I could see Muse do their own tour to be fair, maybe MCR in their place? Could also see Deftones switched out for Slipknot/SOAD depending on who is about.
    • I have no issue with the Primavera crowd in most respects. They’re always friendly, respectful and no hint that there could be trouble at any point.   However…the talking is horrific here. The xx was pretty much ruined for me due to people having conversations with their mates the whole way through. Noticed it from all different nationalities across the weekend…English, Irish, Spanish etc. There seems to be no understanding of the nuances of when it’s okay to talk and when it isn’t. And obviously the sound being quiet at a lot of spots on the main stages exacerbates the issue. That alone has made me reconsider whether I will be coming back, it would probably take a lineup as good as this year (unlikely)
