Download 2015

[Andre91]

Didn't they just say they will be playing a gig in a field? Can't recall them specifically hinting at Download.

Yep, they said it during their Bristol gig. You'd assume they meant the uk(?)

Yeah it's definitely in the UK, but my point is that they didn't specify Download. I'm hoping for Reading and Leeds.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

I'd have thought that playing Nova Rock would have made them more likely, could fit else where on the bill maybe and I thought they flat our confirmed they would be at Download at one of their gigs

Yeah but I was replying to Will asking if they'd play the Friday.

Ok my bad, I think I read it on here but may have misread it as I thought someone said they were playing Download. Would prefer them at R&L though (mainly because I can't go to Download)

I know, but it doesn't mean they can't play

It can be another day....better?

[Gucci Piggy]

Yes but he wasn't saying they can't play...?

Saw Crobot supporting Black Label Society last night, great band.

Would love to see them somewhere in the bill.

[rivalschools.price]

Dead Kennedys are in the UK in June.

Would go down well,3rd or 4th on the second stage

[JamesT977]

Has anyone got an old site map? I'm going for the first time this year and was wanting to know what the overall layout was like. Also if anyone has a rough idea of how long it takes to get from stage to stage.

After some speculation over font sizes on the poster Andy has confirmed that both Clutch & Rise Against will play 4th from top main.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Clutch is pretty weak for 4th.

[JamesT977]

Cheers its good to get a visual idea! Looks much bigger than T in the Park anyway.

[Red Day]

The arena at T is bigger than Download. There's just far more better bands in a smaller space at DL

Campsites can be further than at T but the arena and distance between stages is smaller. Especially the old T layout when NME was where the sunset strip was the last few years.

Thanks for the help. Last time I went to T was 2012 so the Sunset Strip had just been put there I think. The campsites look a lot more spread out on that map than T too.

[devilman]

The Village is better than anything at T too although I have only ever made it once after the bands. Must make an effort this year

I was thinking damn thats weak but really Ive looked at all the 4ths over the past few years and they've never really been massive, Clutch are a quality band and maybe they'll get a real push from this.

When you look back, a lot of these bands get bigger so I wish the best for Clutch!

Do you think there's a chance Download day tickets could be reduced to challenge Reading/Leeds day ticket reductions?

[rivalschools.price]

Ash have announced a UK tour, finishes on the 12th June.

Could play Saturday or Sunday.

[Muppetmark]

no. But it would make sense as to why day tickets were on sale for a bit much earlier than normal

New album in May. Would be a cool addition
