They did it at Reading 2012, and there must be some reason they accidentally added them to the poster.. SOAD, LP, Blink AND Green Day just seems waaay too big to happen in one year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muggy12345678 Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 surely there's a chance ATDI playing. Didn't play any uk festivals last year. Are still active. Also Alexisonfire could be possible as they're touring Austrailia next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were fantastic at Reading a few years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the poster sent to sponsors a fortnight before the announcement. Pearl jam got cold feet about playing a metal festival so copping managed to rope slipknot in at the last minute. Vodafone put the announcement up early not knowing pearl jam had been replaced by slipknot. It was literally a few days before the presale announcement that they got slipknot sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovelessNL Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 Well its the frenchies, wouldnt surprise me if it was a stupid mistake or if they had options on both Blink and Green Day and somebody made a poster with all four and one had to be removed later, and some asshat uploaded the wrong one. Don't know if anyone remembers, but last year there was a 'leaked' Hellfest poster which looked very real, original style and formatting, which was not publically known at that time, had AC/DC, Metallica, Tool, Linkin Park and more on it. Was even hosted somewhere in a folder on the official Hellfest site. So probably one of the developer there was bored as well or just made a mock-up that was somehow publically accessible.

Muggy12345678 Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 I can see it being Soad linkin park and BMTH and Ax7 being a joint headliner. However nothing suggests Ax7 and you would expect them to be playing something else. Same with BMTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estimation... I'd say about 8,000 sold so far. I know it was a "surprise" release - but am I right in saying it's also physically available? if so, 8,000 - two thousand copies a day is...painful. To contrast ... That's The Spirit sold 43,500. Revolution Radio sold 30,000. Future Hearts (!) sold 19,000. The Stage? Tops is 15,000 - and i could be overestimating.

Andre91 Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 SOAD, Blink & A7X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gozpot Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 SoaD and Blink seem 99% likely to be there all things considered. Just the last slot that is up for grabs and I cannot see it being A7x still, no European festival announcements, a tour that still hasn't sold out most (possibly all) dates. Regardless of who the third is its not going to be a surprise and someone will have guessed that band months ago. At this point I'm more interested in the undercard and what bands we will be getting there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tops is 15,000 - and i could be overestimating. fairly sure the album is only available through iTunes and Spotify and hasn't been physically released yet. i don't think their album doing shitty in the charts would be any indication that they couldn't headline next year, although their lack of festival dates still looks quite telling (although why they're not at any festivals thus far is a mystery) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning1000 Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 Avenged are currently 8th in a week with 10 new album releases that include the xmas shit everyone buys for their gran. either way, they're a headliner for a festival that's in dire need of them.
