They’re being tipped as a sub by many but it wouldn’t surprise me if they played third down. What do people think about Bizkit? Reckon they will rock up? From a selfish point of view Bizkit under Avenged would be cracking as it'd get my mates on board, but I appreciate they're not everybodies cup of tea.

My basic point is: If BST doesn't exist last year- Green Day aren't at BST. Green Day may instead do Reading and Leeds > Reading and Leeds doesn't exist or want Green Day > Green Day's only option for a festival performance is Download That's basically what you're looking at in the European countries that get "better" lineups each year. Same reason why Graspop has Jusas Priest this year but Download doesn't Judas Priest aren't offered a headline slot at Bloodstock > Judas Priest probably end up at Download this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Deftones now at Hellfest too. Seems that every act apart from Nine Inch Nails that Zegut rumoured for Hellfest has been announced, and the final announcement is still to come...

Andre91 Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Deftones would awesome as I’ve never properly seen them. Subbing A7X would be nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reece1617 Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 We're gonna get some more bands announced at the end of the month, would love to see Parkway, Architects or While She Sleeps announced. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such great news I really hope this show is a defining moment. I'd also love to see them at Download after they had to cancel 2016. Has anyone been to one of the Enter Shikari shows so far in light of them probably playing Download? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw them on Saturday, relatively heavy set and they were amazing. Could definitely see them at Download or Reading depending on whether they play more of their older stuff.

They were absolutely incredible. The new songs sounded massive. Loved that they kept some older songs in there as people went mad for them. They should sub DL.

With all the bands around at the minute they won't sub DL, plus they're not really big enough for it IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Punk Sucks Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 I think they'll be locked in for a slot at Reading and Leeds. Especially when these festivals would've first been booked they would've hoped that they'd appeal to what R+L is looking for these days more than they've managed.

Reece1617 Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 In my opinion, he deserves a main stage slot. He's an incredible performer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilman Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 Was in Berlin for Stonesour and FFDP. If you are catching them on the UK legs you are in for a treat. SS were shit hot. Corey is an amazing front man. Ivan. however has come back too early and is clearly being helped through the set. Don't get me wrong, they were still excellent but he's not right. SS a shoe in for DL, 3rd down for me. FFDP need to go on holiday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownboundTrain52 Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 One would imagine that they are exclusive to Stone Free - and would likely refuse a lower spot than sub on pride reasons - so feel Scorpions can be ruled out. Megadeth underneath however, is a different ball game. Third down on last three showings - could be a safe bet to be in the mix again? It has been two years, so could be a FFDP type deal a la 15/17.
