Yeah Incubus aren't playing.

[thejimbola]

Same as ZZ Top. One-off London show... not playing Download.

[luckysalt]

I think all these acts suddenly announcing one off London shows would have been pencilled in for Soni perhaps

[Lumz]

Day splits...

[lightning1000]

I call shenanigans either that or the guy who made the poster is bad at his job. Zoom right in and you can see it's a rough cut and paste job around all the acts.

[dentalplan]

It's from the official site so yeah, the guy (edit: or girl!) has done a pretty bad job on that.

Jesus Christ.... I still think Hart attack should just show up at live nation with his portfolio of "fakes" and get hired on the spot.

That poster looks a mess, really half arsed

[Andre91]

Didn't expect Godsmack to be that low.

[justanothername]

Does anyone know who playing 3rd on the 3rd will clash with on the main as if I got a day ticket I wouldn't want to miss ADTR (sorry Faith No More fans )

But Muse, ADTR, Every Time I Die, Rise Against, Parkway Drive and Creeper is enough to really tempt me now

Any news on when day tickets go back on sale? Me and a group of friends have decided that we will be going on the Saturday.

[thejimbola]

I am shocked! Thought they would be in a similar slot to where Seether played. Both are festival headliners or top end of the bill in America, but obviously less well known here.

Well, enough people said they're much bigger in America and not really anything here.

Lordy lord. Imagine missing Faith No More for some band playing backrooms with one EP.

Every Time I Die have 7 LPs and 2 EPs aren't playing backrooms

But I'll presume you're on about Creeper but even though I listen to them more I don't think even I would go see them over FNM but Every Time I Die on the other hand......

The thing is that I'd probably regret it in 2-3 years something

[mrtourette]

Always take the opportunity to see bands like FNM and L7.

Oh right I misread the post. Carry on!

Not that I think it's acceptable but slightly moreso than seeing a band that are second supports on a tour where Baby Godzilla are main supports. Yes I had to research who they were.

Back to that poster, what are they thinking putting Andrew WK on headlining the third stage?

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

There were many spots Andrew W.K would've been awesome in. That is not one.

[lightning1000]

Yup, they could have least had him in that spot on the Sunday to finish the weekend with a party. Now I'm missing muse and Manson.

To be honest, this has made the fest look much worse for me, Fri & Sun look really weak compared to the fucking clash fest that's the Saturday.... I've got my ticket and I'm still going, but man, this has just taken about 8 bands out of my watch list ffs.

[Andre91]

Muse/Manson/Andrew WK is a nightmare of a clash. I'd love to see all three. I've got to choose Muse though as they're a band I've liked for years and haven't managed to see live yet.

[Lumz]

My headliners will be Slipknot, Andrew WK & then see some of both Shikari & Kiss! Not too bad that...

[luckysalt]

They're awful, on the last poster they made prior to this they cut off the top of Slash on his logo.

Actually I just looked, it still is.

THIS.

Always this.

Funny enough Andy always seems to pick acts as third stage headliners who would be so much better in a low main stage slot, The Hives in 2013 were another, surely AWK is gunna get an awful crowd up against Muse and Manson?

I don't understand some of the slots, I really don't. Friday main stage looks poor, odd and disjointed. Sat main looks brilliantly flowed, Sunday main needs a bit more UMPH under Billy Idol I think too.

[DomDom1984]

I've seen FNM, so if I was there, I'd probably take the option of a band who I hadn't seen and have an interest in. For that reason I'd probably go see Black Stone Cherry instead of Slipknot, despite being a really bloody big fan of Slipknot live.

[luckysalt]

Ive seen FNM twice but defo watching them again, amazing band. Plus they'll be playing the new album.

[lightning1000]

Well last year they didn't stop fucking about moving already announced acts around until a few weeks before the fest, so hopefully they do that again this year. And thunder opposite Judas priest is ridiculous, most will either want to see both or neither. Just really poor planning this year.

[gary1979666]

I was waiting for this to decide on whether to day ticket or not and I'm really disappointed in it. I know I'm out of touch with some of the more recent bands and the much older bands aren't my cuppa, but this is bad. Fri and Sun are really bad and not enough on Sat to justify the £. Thought they'd have pick of the bands this year.

[lightning1000]

Well someone's getting in trouble. Someone asked Andy about the muse/Manson/wk clash and he responded with where has your information come from.

Looks like it wasn't meant to be up on the site yet....
