Lineup 2020

[Alex Winstone]

Turnstile, Angel Du$t and Venom Prison In the pit

[TornShaun]

If you could have one band to see that you know would never likely be booked who would it be? Mine, i'd love to see 'Lamb of God' on the main stage mid afternoon!

[MIchael_scarn]

Haven't been on here in time but looking through the last few pages if i was to give my ideal headliners I'd probably go with something like:

Foals/BMTH - Travis Scott - MCR or The Strokes 

I'm more assed about them getting Idles and Sam Fender/ Bombay Bicycle Club for those 3rd down main stage slots more than anything along with maybe Fontaines 5th. 

[Lukeas]

Band predictions:

headliners - BMTH, Travis Scott, RHCP, Slipknot

Other bands somewhere on bill - brockhampton, Turnstile, knocked loose, lil nas x, trippie redd, architects

Behemoth mid afternoon on the main stage, preferably sandwiched between some dark fruits indie bands or some pop artists. The mass exodus when Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel begins would be phenomenal.

I meant headlining obv. Loads come back to headline after even a single year. I don’t think there’s been a case where a headliner has been back in under 3 years ever that I can remember

They headlined in 2016 and 2018.

Plenty of talk about headliners, is there anyone people would like to see lower down the lineup? I’m hoping COIN make a return higher on the Festival Republic or low R1, EDEN would be nice too.

IDLES, Fontaines, Denzel Curry, Slowthai, Loyle Carner, Turnover, clipping., Joey Bada$$, black midi, J.I.D, Jpegmafia, Death Grips, Neck Deep, Jaws, The Streets, Freddie Gibbs, Bicep (live), Tyler, The Creator, Architects, Don Broco, Sum 41

How likely are any of these?

Black Midi, Death Grips, Neck Deep would make an excellent trio of Pit Headliners.

Sum 41 are supposedly Slam Dunk exclusive.

Would love Idles, Neck Deep and Don Broco.

Slowthai probably gonna be back in a bigger spot as he killed it last year, think Neck Deep too as they've definitely grown since the last time they played, don broco will be back too I think, would love to see Freddie Gibbs play too but not sure how likely he is, don't pretend to know much about the patterns of anyone else on your list but that's just my take on it

Slowthai deserves a high up main stage slot

They played second in 2016 like Panic at the disco in 2018. 
 

neither was a real headliner

But they were billed and sold as headliners, had headliner length sets and production.

Size of the crowd and reception he got this year, the amount of publicity he's getting and the fact all of his songs are bangers?

Agree with this. He's grown a lot since the summer, is known for playing great sets and would definitely pull a decent crowd. I'd put him around 4pm

I don't think that Brockhampton can play not main stage again - it was borderline dangerous last time. Don't think Vampire Weekend would take that slot either and not sure why vaccines are in that one there either. Even if J Hus was shite last time he played not sure the tent would work for him either seemed to be fairly busy?

edit: the actual acts are really good they just need reconfiguring

We shall agree to disagree! 

If so though. 3 times in 5 years deffo ain’t gonna happen!

(esp if they’re playing somewhere else on the same day!)

[CG31]

I used to be on this thread ages ago, but i had to make a new account.

imo, Arctic Monkeys, Stormzy(headline) or Travis Scott(co-headline with someone) and MCR are what I'm thinking. i also think someone like the Kaizer Chiefs will headline festival republic and the Vaccines will be back third on Sunday for their sing a long hour.
