Matty1992 Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Hello to all you knowledgable folks! I was hoping someone might be able to tell me the chances on some of the below bands appearing at Download next year! Ghost, Gojira, Korn, Black stone cherry? i saw Gojira had been rumoured for a while, but seems like they have fallen by the wayside recently, so was hoping someone would give me some positive news on that one! Recently got in to Ghost after seeing them being rumoured in this forum and thought i'd check them out, and God damn. so for them to be at download would be an utter treat. Are Stone sour in or out at this point? could mastadon make another appearance this year? thought they put on a good show on the main stage last year.. can we expect any news before xmas? sorry for being a bit of a noob, just fuckin love download!!

devilman Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Ghost are likely. As are BSC. Gojira not as they are at Bloodstock and I can't see Mastodon coming back so soon. Stonesour are still likely in my book despite their Jun dates. As for the next announcement.................soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Not before Christmas though. Additionally Korn are unlikely because Jonathan Davis seems to be touring solo in Europe right around the time. I think there’s a decent chance of him appearing.

Andre91 Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Baroness have been announced for RaR. They’d do so well getting a Main Stage slot. I know they played second this year but they’re so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I legit thought you might not have been having it. I think that line up works really well, to be honest. I'd have plenty to go on. I like the idea of being able to see Stone Temple Pilots and Alice in Chains over the weekend. Not sure about this new guy for STP but I think it sounds more natural than Chester did at least so maybe worth a try, and they seem willing to step down line ups to reestablish themselves so it's the least that peeps could do.

Andre91 Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 TNM have Andy Copping on this week’s show and he has said that GNR will be getting a full 3+ hour set at DL. He also confirmed that the Avalanche Stage will be returning next year and the Fourth Stage will have a much heavier theme. He also said that Parkway Drive will be getting a very prominent slot, either second stage headliner or Main Stage sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just a way of ensuring a set of an hour and half, for when Axl turns up an hour and half late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Punk Sucks Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Surely Parkway Drive couldn't sub headline off the back of 2 Brixton shows? Would be mental when you had Steel Panther and Five Finger both 3rd down last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownboundTrain52 Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Kinda get the feeling Parkway will pick up an Ally Pally/Wembley Arena show around the side of this, a la Deftones a couple of years back Certainly think they're fast approaching that level, with a pair of Brixtons under the belt. Keep the price below £25, add a strong support, they'll sell either out or at least very close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that Copping mentions they as a future headliner. I can see it. Sub seems like the next logical step after hopefully headlining second next year.

Pop Punk Sucks Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 I think Parkway's next logical step is to do what BMTH did after they played 3rd down at Download. Have a one off Wembley (or Ally Pally) show in December next year. Advertise it throughout Download etc. Get 2 or 3 of Bury Tomorrow, While She Sleeps, The Amity Affliction, Northlane and Of Mice and Men etc on there. Reckon they'd sell it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they clashed with FFDP. They're a band that need main stage slots, fairly accessible and not nearly as big as they should be. That said I don't think they'll play.

Yeah but they are different enough to FFDP they should have been able to pull a decent crowd. I don't really think they are so much a festival band though. I would like to see them give main a go and hope they would get a decent crowd just not so sure they would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Punk Sucks Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 I don't think Baroness are particularly accessible and definitely don't translate to a Download main stage. Stick them in a tent if they're there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve1000 Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 I think they'll do something like headline the prog stage at Ramblin Man. I may be way off though as I know nothing about that festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no they won't be playing for 3+ hours.....they won't have been offered the money to do that for a start compared to having their own show regardless of what extra shite he has booked.

Andre91 Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Copping was very clear saying that they will be doing the full Not In This Lifetime set they have been playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
