They have a big cult following that will sell tickets to their dedicated fans. Many more of these will attend Download (who I can't remember ever booking them) and Sonisphere (a much smaller festival, yes they had Metallica but their subs are bands that have comfortably played 3rd/NME position no higher at R&L).

Say what you want about the different between Europe and UK now and how I should realize whatever by now, but I think you should take a look at a booking of a band at their prime festival, compared to at a fest where thousands won't even care that they are there except for the dedicated one's. From what I've heard, their 2007 crowd under TSP says it all.

The reason why there is a R&L and a Download is due to different crowds. The reason why bands like Deftones and BMTH don't play as high at R&L is because they are crossover bands for the base of people with an interest in something more metal too.

NIN would sub I should think, although they could work in nme tent if up against a strong headliner like eminem. Then there'd have to be someone pretty indie in festival republic and that should cater most attendees

    • A question has crossed my (questionable) mind;   Has the size of the Green Fields remained the same as other areas have expanded / been added on to, since say, 2014 (the last time that I attended)? Are they 'lost' within, or well attended?    That's actually two questions. The second one just slipped in at the end by taking advantage of my lack of means to stop it.    
    • I'd say the same about Kylie.    Annie would be awesome, Duran not so much, and on the issue of them wanting a beanie slot, that probably rules out a fair few others who I think would fit the bill very well... and are legitimately more entitled to a headline, and/or too expensive.   Was just about to suggest Chaka Khan, but see @Gnomicide has beat me to it!    What about someone like Bryan Ferry?
