Download 2016

[stevieg1993]

Ahh didn't realise

Shikari might play again next yr

So still going say theyll either be third or possibly sub.

BMTH

BFMV

Shikari

[stevieg1993]

Still think it won't be wise for them headline next yr

For 2016 I'd have them do an arena tour

See how it sells.

Think it will sell well but probs need some big sub's

For Manchester arena the upper tier probs be blocked off

Play a secret slot or 2016

Then headline 2017

Certainly going to make a difference as tickets go on sale tomorrow I've read. It'll be interesting now if Download are able to get them. Andy has a verbal agreement with oen of the bands for next year, I'd say the likeliness is it's this one.

[dentalplan]

I assume it'll be some sort of hold up with recording which might mean they have to keep doing so over into the new year. Nothing too serious I don't imagine.

[Matt42]

guy who runs coachella has said he's tried for years to get Black Sabbath but failed almost every time. I wonder what Andy does to get them...

anyway I doubt they'l be there in 2016. I can see Andy chasing AC/DC again at the back of their tour... fact they are doing Coachella this year makes them less likely to be as demanding as in 2010.

[DGrant261]

BMTH

AC/DC

SOAD

Seem plausible?

[thewayiam]

I think if they are willing to do similar to Coachella then AC/DC, SOAD and Sabbath is the best bet for next year.

I'm fairly sure Download will have to wait a year to get Biffy Clyro. But I'd almost be willing the go for them, Metallica and BMTH for the year after, although I don't think Biffy are a headline fit for Download at all.

Sabbath have had an extremely tight relationship with Live Nation and its predecessors right back to SFX (and perhaps earlier) - with SFX running Osfest for Sharon.

So that's probably why.

Huge setlist as well, just stupid that they only did 1 date and getting a ticket was ridiculous!

I still reckon BMTH might have to wait a year. Bumped into a regular Download goer last night and he was too very much in the thought of it was too early for Slipknot again. Not even a mentioned of Muse playing. I reckon if it's available, they'll have to go stronger headline wise next year, and I'm unsure SOAD, BMTH and Sabbath is stronger.

I think Coachella had them in 2013, the same year they played either Bonnaroo or Palooza but Iommi's health meant pulling out.

2012* they went for the Stones in 2013 and replaced them with The Red Hot Chili Peppers a day or so before the announcement.

Not exactly true, 2012 was what I meant and Dre and Snoop replaced them. RHCP were in talks for months and agreed close to announcement, The Stones would have been above Pheonix if they agreed to play.

No supposedly about it. They were ace. 35 songs and it went in a flash. Anywhere that gets them next year gets my cash.

Just read an interview with Seth Rollins where he said he asked BMTH to come to the WWE show in Sheffield last week as he is huge fans of them but they said no because they are working on the new album.

They must be pretty far along if they cant take a night off.

Maybe we will see this album sooner than expected.

Either that or they hate wrestling...

[dentalplan]

Those 'leaked' German dates (they've gone now but trust me!) had them playing shows in early November. They're probably quite far along already.

[thewayiam]

Likely this one....as it's awful now!

I'm just watching the SOAD set in Armenia from the other night, and God it looks amazing. They played 37 songs!

[devilman]

Where you watching that? Got a link please?

[Andre91]

I just searched 'System Of A Down live Armenia' on YouTube and there's a few videos of the entire performance they streamed it on the night too.
