lightning1000 Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 There was a lot of confusion, I think he was talking about iron maiden and the UK haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foolee Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'm pretty sure Foo Fighters will still be touring Sonic Highways next year. They won't tour it for just one year so they'll be back, whether Copping thinks so or not, he's probably just bitter he couldn't and can never sign them for Download.

As far as Download is concerned, it will take place the same weekend as PinkPop where Foos supposed to be headlining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietediet Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) The thing is: a Festileaks moderator posted a few days ago that they have a source claiming that Foo Fighters won't make up the Pinkpop/Werchter cancellations. They decided not to make a story out of it after making a fool of theirselves last year. But now that Copping is shouting similar stuff, I'm doubting whether it's bitterness or truth. Especially since the very original 'FF will return' source (Pinkpop organiser) is known for speaking before his turn.

foolee Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 I just can't see what he is saying being true. The fact they won't be in Europe for a second year running would not be like Foo's at all, they're always playing live and after releasing an album I can't see them not doing another run of dates next year. I'm still going with Foo Fighters - Editors - Rammstein - Coldplay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pisses they've probably for a 2nd year turned his 'paying' fest down for a non paying fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietediet Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) A Dutch newspaper asked the Pinkpop organiser about the Rammstein rumours, and he implicitely confirmed them, but he says that the band members want to announce the tour dates themselves. I guess a full tour list is coming this week then, with the Download rumours? Either that, or the Iron Maiden approach.

Tremousse Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 After analyzing Andy Copping tweets, I think that there is a big misunderstanding. Copping says indeed that the Foos are not available for Download. He also says that they are not touring. Someone says "I'm pretty sure they'll play at glaston". Andy answers "How certain? Would you take a bet?"So. He didn't mean anywhere that the Foos won't play any gig next summer in Europe. He says that they won't be touring. Which festivals did the Foos cancel at the last minute ? Pinkpop, Werchter, Glaston. Can we consider that 3 dates are a tour ??That's why I asked a clearer question on twitter to Andy : "Do we have to understand that the Foos won't play any gig in Europe next summer?"He didn't answer. That's why I think that we can still hope that the Foo Fighters will play at Rock Werchter, and at Pinkpop and at Glastonbury, wait for official announcements.

Dietediet Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 One problem though: there's 2 weeks between Pinkpop and Glastonbury, another week between Glasto and Werchter. Unless Pinkpop and Werchter are bringing up a higher fee, this would turn out quite expensive for FF, and that after having lost a lot of money on the previous cancellations. So if they are coming back next Summer, they are bound to do more dates than just the cancelled ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy has since commented to a tweet to say he didn't mean the Foo's as in not touring, he was on about Iron Maiden. He's a bit silly sometimes the old man, they got announced as a UK only so that was obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietediet Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) Tomorrow first Hurricane/Southside names, for whom Rammstein is rumoured. Tomorrow morning last Download headliner, for whom Rammstein is rumoured. Pinkpop organisor basically confirming Rammstein today, but saying that an official confirmation is in the hands of the band. Tour announcement tomorrow? Even if it's not Rammstein, still interesting for RW. They tend to share quite some names.

lightning1000 Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 It is rammstein for download, that I know. I'd therefore assume it is for the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietediet Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Rammstein for Download. Rock In Vienna has a timer ending in half an hour, and at that same time the Pinkpop organiser will be appearing on Dutch radio. The plot thickens...

That's a nightmare for me if true because I'm really hoping they will play next year. Seems weird he said 2017 as that's so soon to have new material on the way... Not sure what that means for the headliners. Never seen Rammstein or know much about them. Could anyone direct me where to start with them please? We can also count on Two Doors Cinema Club that plays Hurricane and Southside the weekend before Werchter.As well as Two Door I'd imagine we'll be getting The Hives, Editors and possibly Dropkick Murphy's out of those announced for Hurricane/Southside today.

Could anyone direct me where to start with them please? https://youtu.be/FZryTEMFrM4this was the first song i ever heard from them (back when it was constantly being shown on Kerrang! tv) and as you can see, it's an absolute giant live. if you're going to listen to an album, then yeah Mutter is probably your best bet. the first half of that album is just fantasticedit: hmm how do you show videos now?

gazza_20 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 bizarrely doesn't have Feuer Frei! on it though which is essential RammsteinRammstein pretty much starts and ends there to be honest for me although I think Adios has some great riffs. Bit of a nothing band for me and I wouldn't even know about Feuer Frei! if it wasn't for xXx or tbf Kerrang every other song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremousse Posted October 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 I've not found the world "headliner" anywhere. What do you think ? Are Rammstein a headliner, a subheadliner or a coheadliner ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning1000 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 They were billed as co headliners in 2013 with volbeat. In fact all 4 days stated they had 2 headliners.green day and the national kings of Leon and blur volbeat and rammstein editors and depeche mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
