How much do you know about Pop Punk? Whilst I'd agree that they aren't as relevant anymore, there is absolutely no way that either Shikari or You me at six are bigger than them. Sum 41 are known basically all over the world,

regularly touring in places like Indonesia, Japan and Australia. They're on par with the likes of Fall Out Boy, New Found Glory and Blink.

Shikari and You Me At Six are more relevant and would be of more interest to those attending R&L 2013 than Sum 41, hence they get higher slots. Doesn't matter what Sum41 do in the rest of the world. I agree they're on a par with New Found Glory, but they would play a low slot as well.

How you define 'bigger' is something that differs from person to person, but if you apply it to the current R&L audience then Sum41 aren't very big at all.

Yeah maybe you're right, the golden days have gone. I disagree that those two were ever more popular though, they're only relevant to Europe.

There is no way Sum 41 would get a higher slot than Shikari/YM@6. They would halfway down main stage at best. Back in the day they would probably command a high slot but not anymore. Also, how can you compare them in size to Blink, FOB? that's rediculous.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
