Not a fan of LG headlining but that is what it is. Rage headlining has me buzzing and Stormzy should be decent too. Fever been there, one of the best live acts I’ve ever seen. Looking forward to seeing who else catches my eye tomorrow but with Fever and Rage there especially they’ve already done a freakin’ amazing job this year.

FR have done well with the headliners but that's a disapointing set of other names (and I love rap and grime etc)

D Block, Aitch, AJ Tracey and M Huncho were all there last year as was Slowthai which I'm not complaining about. 

Could it be they went hard with the headliners so the rest of the pack is weaker?

Went to have dinner, game and watch some Twitch for a while, and coming back onto this forum, it still doesn't quite seem real. Rage Against The Machine man, unbelievable. 

In all seriousness, I'm shocked Bring Me The Horizon aren't there, I'm believing that fully. They've done very few shows in the UK for the amo era, and this felt like it could have been a real curtain closer. Gotta feel for them a bit, if Rage hadn't have reunited, you feel it absolutely would have been them headlining.

Very strong trio of headliners. Stormzy's glasto set looked great on tv and now his 2nd album is out he has even more bangers to pull from. Rage will kill it no doubt and LG does what he does. His Sheffield show a few months back was really enjoyable!

Strikes me as the other acts mentioned are probably other stage headliners. Fever 333 and Gallows seem like pit headliners to me. AJ Tracey in the Radio one stage as Dan already said.

Agree with the sentiment that this is a great set of headliners. Stormzy is pretty much the biggest music artist in Britain right now and would be a great headline choice for any festival. Liam is Liam, he has an arsenal of classic songs that will draw in the crowds. And I think enough has been said about how good of a booking Rage are for one night so I'll save the superlatives.

A rap headliner, an Indie-ish headliner and a hard rock headliner. Like last year, something for everyone. Good job Festival Republic. Now onto tomorrow where we discover that the subs are AJ Tracey, The Courteeners and All Time Low and the rest of the Main Stage is full of artists who didn't release an album before 2015. :P

Not headlined when they were a far stronger band + failed to even slightly sell out Victoria Park last year (tickets being literally given away in their hundreds) for all points east so would be a pretty poor headliner

Bit worrying it doesn't mention any subs and Aitch, AJ Tracey etc are listed so could they be subs ?

Nah they won’t be. Feel Radio 1, dance or whatever the hell the stage is  now called with FEVER headlining the Pit (hopefully on LG day!)

Stormzy somehow feels abit meh. 
 

Prolly cause he’s touring but it’s saved me money, and if you get any rap / grime act he’s one of, if not the hottest act in that genre so it’s a safe and sensible booking IMO

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
