Any bands that people think should and will be pushed up to headliners for future years? My guesses: FFDP, Ghost, Gojira, Trivium?

I’m with you on FFDP and Ghost. Gojira I can’t see ever happening. Trivium is a funny one. They’ve had a real resurgence recently and if they can finally string together a couple of albums as good as TSATS in a row then I think they will only begin to climb lineups once again. 

They should have been headliners by now but they’re just so damn inconsistent album wise.

Bring Me The Horizon / Deftones / Enter Shikari  / Papa Roach 

Ghost / Behemoth 

 

Rammstein / Five Finger Death Punch / Trivium / Alice In Chains 

The Distillers / Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes 

 

KISS / Judas Priest / Megadeth / Clutch 

Lamb of God / Killswitch Engage

seems realistic to mid but i think you cant count out  metallica for next year they pretty much confirm they will headline european festivals by saying after the end of the current european tour we will come back next may to europe!

Metallica have said they’re doing stadium shows next year.

Could we have Slipknot here doing s/t anniversary shows then R&L the year after with a new album?

I'm guessing this isn't a prediction

Kind of a 'no repeats from the last 10 years' concept.

Except Terrorvision... oops. ?

My attempt at a guess

[Andre91]

Nice poster. 

I’m now firmly under the belief that Five Finger Death Punch will headline the Friday.

not bad preddiction but havent my chemical romance broke up or are they plalling a reunion?

[dentalplan]

That poster design is awesome.

Acts look realistic too, however I think it’s perhaps a bit too strong at the top of the other stages.

[Andre91]

Agreed that the poster design is awesome. 

I’ve made some changes to my prediction. I’m going to stick with FFDP headlining and Ghost subbing. 

 

Five Finger Death Punch / Deftones / Lamb of God / Papa Roach 

Slash ft. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators 

 

Rammstein / Ghost / Trivium / Clutch 

The Distillers 

 

KISS / Judas Priest / Tenacious D / Alice In Chains 

Skindred

I can see it being Def Leppard, Iron Maiden and Pearl Jam. They’re all doing stuff this year and next year E.G. Albums, Tours. Alternatively it could be Foo Fighters or Muse. It’s unlikely it’ll be slipknot as to my knowledge they don’t have anything planned for a while and Corey Taylor is doing more work with stone sour at the moment. There is also a chance it could be Metallica however if they do headline then I think it’s unlikely that Foo Fighters will headline aswell due to the shear cost of have both acts perform.

I reckon it'll be better then that tbh.

Foos and PJ are very unlikely, the fact that neither are playing this year says it all. Maiden and Leppard deffo possible, Muse maybe but I doubt it.

It's a nice enough thought but it'd sell atrociously.

[Bandit Tom]

Plain one here if anyone wants a go in the style I did it in ?
