I could see Knife Party possibly. Modestep more likely.

[dentalplan]

Modestep played a couple of years back. I could see the likes of Knife Party and perhaps Skrillex but not this year now.

Andy has answered 'you never know' to a question on whether there will be any Dance bands this year.i realise this means nothing but thought I'd mention it.

Anyway, excuse my dance crossover ignorance, is there anyone other than Prodigy, Pendulum and chase and status who come into this category?

I know Modestep and Tek-One have a lot of crossover

[lightning1000]

Tek-one sounds like a brand of trainers they sell in markets.

[lightning1000]

Anyone who's music sounds like a transformer fucking a washing machine I guess.

[Gucci Piggy]

The realest.

[rivalschools.price]

Not much then really, not a huge genre.

You'd have thought with the bookings Prodigy and Pendulum are getting at Download,Sonisphere, etc that a few other bands would have jumped on the bandwagon.

[ToeJaylor]

Next band announcement is at 8am on Wednesday. The Download facebook page just announced it

It'll be in Kerrang then that same day I suspect

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

I can pick Kerrang up before 8 on Wednesday so I'll whack it up if it's in there.

Went to the Slipknot/KoRn tour tonight. It was perfect, everything about it was incredible. Actually ended up meeting Fieldy and Head from KoRn afterwards in a weird turn of events.

Waiting in the lobby of the arena afterwards and some American guy walks up and asks if we want to meet KoRn. Turns out he is their tour manager and the band is filming a documentary and they want some footage of them with the fans. So we go along, and out come the guys from the band and we have a chat with them, shake hands and got given some guitar picks by Head. Everyone else is getting photos (there was about 25 fans there) but me and my friends had all left our phones in the car so that we didn't lose them during the gig. So they call the tour manager over, he gets his phone out, takes our picture with them and then emails it straight to us to make up for us not having our phones with us. It was so surreal and awesome, and I apologise if nobody cares but it was something that I never expected to happen and I'm pretty made up about it

Great story - always nice to hear about a band giving a damn about their fans.

Nottingham Arena it was so surreal!

Im going tonight, really looking forward to it, dont expect to have that happen tho, that sounds awesome, you should post the pic up on here dude!

Small world.

Not as good as when I met Spud in a pit during Metallica at Glastonbury, but these eFestivals encounters/small-world-things are becoming too frequent.

[devilman]

I did Korn and Slipknot after racing a 24 hour mountain bike race and having no sleep for basically 2 days. I drank some beer in the car on the way there, in a pub beforehand and in the arena. I felt like I was floating in an awesome kaleidoscope. My surreal out trumps yours

[Dead throne]

Any rumours? Leaks?

[luckysalt]

All im saying is, dont expect much, big names wise anyway.

[Bisque]

Anyway, excuse my dance crossover ignorance, is there anyone other than Prodigy, Pendulum and chase and status who come into this category?

Half of Modestep have been replaced & I think are due a new album in the near future from what I gathrt on facebook.

Tek-One are a pretty heavy live/DJ combo. Played Soni & supported Enter Shikari on tour.

Subgiant.

I Am Legion which is a joint venture between Foriegn Beggars & Noisia.

Feed Me.

[ToeJaylor]

I'd say off the top of my head: Knife Party, Chase and Status, Prodigy, Feed Me, Dillon Francis (maybe), Skrillex (I'm 50/50 about him although he obviously worked with Korn), Kill The Noise, Chemical Brothers?, Fatboy Slim maybe?, Deadmau5?, Excision, Datsik and obviously Pendulum. Be it the full live show or just the DJ set. Feel free to agree or disagree but that's just what I'd hazard a guess at from what's on my phone.
