Does anyone else think it's strange the wonder years haven't announced a UK headline tour yet? Surely they can't just be supporting enter shikari?

I always assumed that they'd announce one not long after they've finished supporting Shikari

R&L Exclusive then own tour I bet. With regards to that tour and clashing, TKB being at Glasto now is great.

I'll assume that if they're an exclusive it will be more by accident as in the fact that no other festival will book them.

King blues headlining a stage but minus Jamie Jazz (ally pally his last.show)

Where is the heading a stage info from?

I think Slam Dunk is looking possible this year, 4 or 5 bands I want to see and that pays for ticket.

Hoping New Found Glory are on main personally but looks about right but thinking both NFG and Of Mice & Men could be main stage acts. Thinking Yellowcard may headline a stage too with them playing Ocean in full. Do we think they'll be just smaller bands added to the bill now or some surprises? As there were over 50 bands last year and going by that there's still going to be another 20

I'd probably see ROAM, SYG, FYS, TSSF, Yellow Card/Zebrahead and NFG/TKB. Set time dependant I'd probably watch WCAR over TSSF.

the hotelier touring may, hope they get added on ...

was expecting them last year !

Don't think they'll play. Touring the UK a few weeks before Slam Dunk and doing dates nearby the sites themselves. Just go and see them do their own headline sets with Into It. Over It (should be awesome)

When do we usually get stage splits?

I think it was about a month before last year so still a bit of time and probably another 2 announcements I'd say, not sure how big the bands will be we get but architects were in the last announcement last year if that's anything to go by

I remember reading that there are only 4 more acts left to announce so imagine there will only be one more announcement. Reckon one of them them could be a decent size one but I don't know why they wouldn't have been announced yet

I would have have thought there'd be more than that because there are only 32 acts announced and last year there were over 50

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
