How about Springsteen? A bit different to your typical R&L headliner, and would put on one of those performances that would go down in the festival's history.

But what's for certain is that Biffy Clyro, Bloc Party and Blur are without doubt R&L bands and huge R&L bands. QOTSA, Mumford & Sons, Pendulum and Dizzee Rascal would also be huge R&L subs. But unless, download suddenly dedide they are willing to give QOTSA a sub spot, Mumford's next album isn't the R&L way, I can't see anything but those 4 being in the sub mix. The only annoying this is with it being 10 years of Bramham Park next year, you can't write off Kaiser Cheifs returning to take a sub spot - and if so, it'd be one of the worst decisions they made.

If Foo Fighters are not telling this festival out yet and are the main selling point by a fair bit, then I can't ever see Pearl Jam doing it again. It's been 6 years and in that time, the fest has changed a lot. I'm surprised we even got the amount of 'heavier' music we did this year.

I don't even know how many people want The Killers back now, they seem so much ore a V band now. I think depending on how Mumford's new album sounds will depend on wether they go from being a R&L band to a V Fest band.

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
