Well worth a read if you've got a spare 10 minutes. In-fighting among themselves about whether or not this means System will play or not. Seems like one or two people dismissing it for no reason other than they think SoaD can't travel from France to the UK and back to France in the space of 3 days. Ridiculous, every year they are voted #1 on the bands people want at the festival and the year they your AC doesn't book them? Not a hope in hell. SoaD 100% at DL.

Red Day Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Aerosmith and A7X would be really poor booking imo. That's 2/3 of 2014 headliners. Things surely not that bad in the headliners pool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Punk Sucks Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Are people on the DL forums guessing Guns N Roses purely out of blind hope/optimism? Surely no chance they end up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not convinced on Avenged Sevenfold though. 3 minutes ago, Pop Punk Sucks said: Are people on the DL forums guessing Guns N Roses purely out of blind hope/optimism?

I think the only hints of info on it we have had are AC saying he would love to have them as DL and that website that was not at all reliable claiming GnR had agreed to do it, nothing worthwhile taking notice of, atleast in my opinion. SoaD are the only band we can really say have a solid base of info behind them at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Punk Sucks Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 The reaction on the Facebook page and the DL Forums when neither Metallica or Guns N Roses play will be brilliant though. Be like watching Arsenal fans on deadline day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think they'd have done this extensive a tour if Download was in the offing, however if they do start getting announced for all the festivals around Download then it'll look a safe assumption that LN just overestimated their appeal.

thewayiam Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) I didn't know the A7X tour was selling so badly, I bet they wish they didn't announce that 2nd 02 date. I started doing by my view though, if it is then 3 then it's very much so bar SOAD a lazy set and poor booking of headliners. And come on in fairness, Andy is a complete arse....I can see why many acts that are hard to get just don't care.

Download should know they've overestimated their appeal after terrible sales the last time they headlined. People are forgetting that this tour is a package with Disturbed being a big draw in themselves. After 'the sound of silence' went massive this is arguably the biggest Disturbed have been.

Chavmeisterdeluxe Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Standing is sold out at both A7X's o2 shows so I don't think it's selling that badly, just nobody really wants to sit at this type of gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it shouldn't be as what they have released in the last two albums isn't much to talk about, that happens a lot though that bands get bigger for bringing out poorer stuff. Not a fan of the headliners itself either tbf mind. Not even SOADs crowd that year was massive so A7Xs wasn't going to do great.

You say that, nothing bar the capital city with the most people has sold standing out I don't think. Alt-J as far as I'm aware and maybe YM@6 sold out standing at The 02, Alt-J didn't too well you all accounts on their bigger tour though.

You can still get standing on the 2nd date on AXS, until people find out about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
