Day splits for the Dance Stage are just so bizarre.. 8 acts announced for Friday, 3 for Sunday?

Dillon Francis has dropped a place since 2013 despite being more popular now, Porter Robinson somehow 5th down when he'll get a bigger crowd than Wilkinson who are headlining the tent that day (disregarding clashes he'd still get a bigger crowd).

Not that I really listen to much of them but aren't Boy Better Know more suited to 1xtra than the Dance Tent (let alone headlining it?)

I know the majority on here aren't that fussed about the Dance Tent but I really don't know what they're going for this year, there's plenty of suitable dance acts around despite Creamfields, especially with Global Gathering not happening this year. I know Knife Party / Rebel Sound / deadmau5 are all very strong 'dance' bookings but nevertheless I'm disappointed with the way that particular tent is shaping up..

TBF, when do any of the placing ever seem right?

I'm assuming by 'a little' they mean the whole set?

@fakeurdeath_ A little, but you will be able to see some of both

i am so happy that American Football got announced, Luckily got a ticket (which sold out in like 4 minutes) to see them in Leeds but the fact i get to see a band twice in 1 year who id never think i'd ever see has given me warm fuzzy feelings inside

    • Yeah.   Revisit in 2 weeks, then 👀
    • Even with the recent heavy showers it's too early to tell what site conditions would have been like.  The very hot spell would have certainly dried things up considerably, and rain since then has been equalled by a stiff breeze so, without the benefit of actually walking the site, I'd guess ground conditions at present are about perfect.   If we had a festival to look forward to I think the weather watchers would have been at the "all to play for" stage at present.
    • Hush cancelled with a similar event now taking place at EartH and Cate Le Bon doing her own show, maybe others have rearranged gigs?
    • Yeah I find it strange, if they were just a silly act then they wouldn't be headlining the 3rd stage. The likes of vengaboys yes but they aren't doing their own sizeable arena dates.  That looks very weak for what they could actually get, but GC aren't playing 3rd main stage with The 02 and the Coop arena and in a same slot that KSE are. MIW aren't carrying those two dates either, neither are Turnstile and Parkway Drive tickets didn't play out. You gotta do better than Ghost, Blink and Deftones though.    I think you are a bit even if that is not the intention. I'm genuinely shocked they booked them for the avalanche and I think it'll be rammed out of the tent. While ADTR will obviously get a lot too, many Download attendees will had the chance to see them at Slam Dunk. I think 90s fest getting Scooter was class and while there would have been some Download crossover, the Slam Dunk crossover given acts you get on the avalanche will be a different level.
