Mark Tremonti definitely said to me couple month back that Alter Bridge would be at Download. Id also like to see himself as a solo act announced on a smaller stage. Hes pretty good. Would also like Motley Crue headlining second stage on Sunday, not fond or bothered about Rammstein.

Wonder if Steve Harris will do a Cory and we will see British Lion on the main early on one of the non-Maiden days being as he is off out on the road with it over the next couple of months... Ok, still a long time until Download but at least they would have toured together before hand...

2013 - Year of the side project... anyone in Rammstein got another band that can play as well??

Public Enemy are announcing European dates very soon & DJ Lord confirmed to me on twitter that they're doing UK fests. Scott Ian's spoken word tour ends just before Download? Either a coincidence or we're gonna see them play 'Bring The Noize' together for the first time ever on UK soil?

Great new artwork for the poster, bout time.

My opinion, some good bands but placings seem off. Down on Main again in that 4th/5th position for the 3rd time in 5 years is boring. They were great in 2009 but 2011 they totally went through the motions so should've been dumped onto second stage and gave someone else the spotlight.

Limp Bizkit obviously headlining second stage which means a clash, for me I'd have preferred them to have swapped with Shikari but hey ho.

Parkway Drive seem too high, FFDP punch have gone back up like 3 slots on main stage after they pulled out last yr due to not getting booked elsewhere, why have they had such a bump?

Jimmy look like they're gunna be a second stage sub, which is a great spot for them, shame Airbourne aren't on main again, see I'd have swapped them with Down, but hey. The Hives finally getting rebooked after Andy has been pestered for them for years is great. 3 Doors Down is another band he's been asked for lots so good to see he's listening

I think a lot of people dismissing this lineup are doing so because they havnt heardof a few of the bands, people really should listen to acts before shooting them down

Although i suppose there is a lot of the same acts for people who have been to dl before so that xan be a problem aswell

Also this announcement is gd for me, except i wanted papa roach but aw well :P

    • I see, well even if they aren't on sale it's still not a disaster sales wise, it's not like they are struggling to sell a half capacity areana
    • Blue dot wouldn’t be a thing if Ticketmasters dynamic pricing went down as well as up, it proves that the dynamic pricing was just a scam to make more money rather than something that moved with the market supply/demand. 
    • I agree that we’ll never really know up until the concert happens (and even then we still may not know) but I think promoters are having to come up with new tactics to combat ‘blue dot fever’ (already hating that phrase!) and trying to imply that concerts are selling better than they actually are / available tickets are in short supply is definitely one of them.    To add though, it is quite common at the O2 Arena for the rear blocks to not go on sale (and then remain closed for the concert and covered over to hide the empty seats). And equally common for standing to sell out first, then side/lower tier seating next and rear/upper tier seating last.    Jungle’s two concerts at the O2 are a good comparison for this - for their 1st (announced) date, all blocks are on sale and seats in all sections remain unsold, whereas for their 2nd date, the rear blocks are greyed out (more so than for Muse) and equally lots of seats remain unsold in the blue blocks. Standing for both concerts are showing as sold out.
    • MGK can and should headline. I was at one of his shows earlier in the year as a very casual fan, and there were a lot of alt people there. The show was actually class and he completely won me over. Anyone who opposes him headlining is just a gatekeeper imo, we need to move with the times.
    • Ultimately Glasto is just part of the festival circuit, however special we may think it is. The vast majority of its headliners have done many others
