If those A7x arena dates sell out/sell well then Copping is going to be looking at them as headliners for sure. Maybe not for 2014, but 2015 for certain. Bang a strong sub-headliner underneath them like NIN & job done.

Edit: Just realised Copping is promoting the tour. I'd say that makes it even more likely.

Does anyone think that Paramore could actually sub Download next year?

I think them and 30STM aren't too different in size; Paramore are obviously bigger but I still think they could accept a sub slot.

With that in mind:

Friday

Main: Pearl Jam // The Smashing Pumpkins // Weezer // Killswitch Engage

2nd: Marilyn Manson // Skindred

Saturday

Main: Avenged Sevenfold // Paramore // Bring Me the Horizon // Within Temptation

2nd: Machine Head // Lamb of God

Sunday

Main: Nine Inch Nails // Deftones // Placebo // Dream Theater

2nd: ZZ Top // Trivium

Jesus Christ. A7X announce a 3 date arena tour that hasn't even gone on sale yet & people are suggesting they're a headliner?!? Their first arena tour too. 30STM have just announced their 3rd and they're still subbing. The festival marketplace is in a down turn, fests are needing to book bigger headliner & bigger subs not the other way round.

on the logic of a7x headlining then surely bands such as bfmv and alter bridge should be headlining now as they've both done arena tours, with alter bridge doing their 2nd later this year, and bfmv rumoured to be doing one at some point again.

2nd: Marilyn Manson // Trivium

Pearl Jam, A7X and NIN for next year. I can't see a 3 really that Download fans would like moreso except for the Tool (that's probably not going to happen), if they even tour the UK again.

I think Deftones, Stone Temple Pilots and possibly Alterbridge as subs too.

And I know it's previous but who's willing to bet Linkin Park turn up the following year? - I don't think they'll keeping going much past that really, and I think Chester knows it hence why he's getting in the the STP's vocals.

each to their own on idea's but if A7X can headline it so can Paramore. Both sold out Manchester, both sold out Wembley. A7X have sold LG but then Paramore have sold Cardiff. Going based on seetickets. I guess A7X edge it going by the crowd but A7X aren't a bigger band.

i thought bbc radio one big weekend, Paramore's show could've done with being in a darker setting which put's it in a headline slot.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
