Cause BMTH are playing Nova and touring, I reckon they'll replace Kiss or Iron Maiden. my prediction is BMTH, SOAD and someone else who I cannot predict.

Ivan said at the end of their Wembley show at the start of the year that the next time they’re over here it’ll be headlining Download. It might just be him talking up their chances but it’s definitely the right time to push them up and if they were signed up for 2021 already they are the obvious choice to take Maiden’s place in the trio of headliners.

Foo Fighters were insanely good at Leeds last year (joint best live band I've seen), and I think they'd smash a headline set at Download.

Foo Fighters were insanely good at Leeds last year (joint best live band I've seen), and I think they'd smash a headline set at Download. In a funny contrast, Foo Fighters’ set at Leeds last year was the second worst headline slot I’ve seen in 10 years of going to festivals. Bloated, self-indulgent and duller than dishwater. They’d fit in perfectly headlining Download’s Main Stage. Edited June 10, 2020 by Andre91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the first time I've ever seen them, so that might have been a factor too. Have you seen them before out of curiosity, and do you think it is just a case of you've seen them too many times, if you will? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw them headline in 2012 and loved it, although the elongating if every song was a little annoying at times. So when I saw them in 2019 the elongating of every song (I am certain The Pretender lasted 12 minutes) really, really grated on me and I cleared off after an hour. Although some of my friends were seeing them for the first time and loved it, much like you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I can see them holding off on Ghost until it’s time for them to headline. I think Jinjer are way too high on your lineup too. Sabaton headlining the Zippo or even subbing the Main is something that should happen in 2021. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worse than a screamo band turned pop band that are given a headline shot at a festival they weren't when they actually suited it a lot more. I'd be slightly worried about FOB getting a call....they have afterall co-headlined a major festival that sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You using ‘screamo’ gives me an idea Fall Out Boy straight up headlined R&L in 2018, they didn’t co-headline with anyone that year.

Jericode Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 Guessing he meant 2016 when they co-headlined with Biffy but yeah, they've headlined it outright since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also If they did Pray For Plagues and Diamonds Aren't Forever at All Points East, they'd almost certainly play a heavier set for Download. They aren't limited to Amo songs.

If you’re here labelling metal bands as ‘screamo’, I don’t think Download is the festival for you. BMTH’s APE set would have gone down a storm at Download, they played stuff from every album.
