oneoftherest Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 A friend of mine worked the All Time Low tour, he said Good Charlotte had offers from UK festivals but hadn't made their mind up about it yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gozpot Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Dillinger aren't nearly as popular as they once were, Sum 41 are probably more popular, if they're irrelevant then so are half the bands on the bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised they couldn't get either though. I was thinking they'd have gone for sum41 or good Charlotte if they'd managed to not cancel that is.

No. But they definitely said they'd be back 'in the fall' on the ATL tour. Could be reading. Could've been hevy. Could be a tour in September. God knows.

Gozpot Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Either 5SOS trying to make themselves more credible or Don Broco trying to get more min stream fans to get more exposure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavmeisterdeluxe Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 It's a pop band supporting a pop band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There as popular as they've ever been and are still at the forefront of their genre. Sum 41 are still dining out on their first 2 albums and the majority of people going to see them is purely out of nostalgia. Same as bands like limp bizkit.

lemonhed Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 I'm holding out for Weezer, Dandy Warhols and Milk Teeth on tomorrows announcement. Also, Jane's Addiction to make up for bailing in 2011... Kerbdog have an announcement later today. Maybe they got their dates wrong and actually meant tomorrow. Love to see them on The Pit.

foolee Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Reading and Leeds always get irrelevant bands but if they sell why would the festival care. SUM 41 sold out there tour so therefore in demand and that's what the festival wants. I think now the more pop based V goes it'll get more irrelevant indie bands due to V not having them. Maximo would usually be more a V band but if R&L can get them in a small spot then why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#FreeComTruise Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Imagine if a term such as "rock" or "pop" wasn't so fucking broad that you could connect most bands in history to at least one of the two genres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're talking pop here, the likes of Bieber, Lukas Graham are considered pop, DB really don't sound too similar to them. Also DB have just finished supporting BMTH as well...

Gucci Piggy Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 This thread is actually the worst thing on the internet these days. Where did these people come from? Don Broco are definitely a pop band. As are the majority of the acts at R&L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
