Slam Dunk Festival 2020

[thewayiam]

Yeah that PID announcement did nothing for me really, not bothered that much for any of the announced on it. 

Bit of a come down to go from NOFX, Bad Relgion, LTJ and The Interrupters who I thought were very close to being band of the day, to this.

Would love to see The Vandals again but I'm not sold either. 

I've still not forgiven them for the bar situation last year. 

Yeah, those shitty bar queues is a massive deal breaker for me. Did Slam Dunk ever comment on it?

[a6l6e6x]

I really don't get NOFX. Think they are terrible

Do hope they sort out those bar queues, it's not the best watching an entire set from a queue

Too bad Comeback Kid are not on the Slam Dunk dates...

I reckon they're playing. They're doing a UK tour next week and would seem a bit out of place on the PiD stage anyways. They're far more suited to something like the Impericon/Jager.

I personally see NoFX, Bad Religion and Less Than Jake as almost identical to NoFX, Pennywise and Reel Big Fish in terms of stature and audience, it's very samey imo.

It's only the first announcement so I wouldn't be shocked if The Interrupters are added later as they were fairly low last time and have a UK tour to sell first. Speaking of which they have added Buster Shuffle and The Skints as their support bands, that is gonna be a quality night.

I don't see Pennywise and RBF anywhere near as good as LTJ and Bad Religion but that's me. Plus RBF play nearly every year and I'm not a fan at all. It's fair to say though that the lineup this year was very very good for me....it was a bargain ticket price for me.

I think you're splitting hairs, Less Than Jake are just as bad for being a constant present in the Slam Dunk line ups as Reel Big Fish are.

Fuck sake, they were the most enticing band announced.

[Archi]

Hope lots of names for Impericon Stage tomorrow!

[Andre91]

I reckon we might get Refused tomorrow as one of the heavy headliners. Wouldn’t surprise me if Thrice are announced too.

Think you're in the wrong thread lad.

You’d love to see it. Is this going in Kerrang? Or just announced via their channels?

[Jericode]

There's usually an updated poster in Kerrang on announcement days but I haven't seen anything leak yet. Will probably be on their socials in a few hours regardless.

[Traher666]

I like all of the bands on the Punk in Driblic this year, but it’s really underwhelming compared to last year. 

[foolee]

Refused and Young Guns announced themselves but no full announcement yet. No one got Kerrang yet?

Refused is great, I'd happily end my night on then but not at the expense of Sum 41.

Happy with Refused, mom jeans and Free Throw

[thewayiam]

Please put Refused 3rd down on the Don Broco stage and clash then with The Used.

Bedouin Soundclash!
