rivalschools.price Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Chris Cornell doing a solo tour in April, may come back in June for the festival?Jesus! Just looked at his tour venues.Have I spectacularly misjudged his popularity?Some large venues there.Royal Albert Hall? On an acoustic tour?Surely even Soundgarden themselves would struggle to sell out those venues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On an acoustic tour?Surely even Soundgarden themselves would struggle to sell out those venues.They're fancy venues but not really that big. I think RAH is usually under 4,000 for gigs - which Soundgarden could probably sell in a morning at any given venue - and that's the biggest one. That being said, I'm similarly surprised as I didn't know anyone really cared about his solo stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 So me and the wee cousin are definitely heading down for this. That headline trio was a big clincher, and longer sets for the other acts is a good thing as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) Shut up Fawzi.Korn are doing the debut in full for RAR/RIP. That'd need to be a second stage headline slot if they do a full tour of that, right?Edit: forget this shit, I misread completely.

That headline trio was a big clincher, and longer sets for the other acts is a good thing as well.You'll not regret it. Bet you come back next year. As much as I think Andy would book Biffy Clyro, now more than I did I don't think it's right for them, they didn't look comfortable subbing last time and it wasn't one of their better shows. I think Glasto will offer them the headline show and they'll take that I think knowing it won't harm their Download chances, whereas not live upto the hype at Download and it might do them for Glasto later.Hi gazza *waves* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Tell you what, if Download gets a bunch of acts from Greenfield, Nova and Rock AM Ring, it WILL be the best Download ever for me.Healthy dollop of punk acts, metal, rock, theres everything.Really hope Download gets Pennywise, NOFX, Dropkicks, Hives and Zebrahead from Greenfield, that could be the most punk rock download has had in years!! Get Billy Talent too! Alice Cooper on Main Stage would be nice on Sabbath day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now now, you can't go stereotyping millions of people just because of the music they like. But yeah.there's no sign that's coming back again though on their website, if it was I'd wager you may well have somethingFacebook is active(ish). They better run again, I got a ticket. It was great last year, in a grown up festival kind of way. Rainbow would be the perfect fit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
