Andre91 Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 6 hours ago, jump said: Bring Me would be a good shout but there's an old story floating (that may or may not be true) about that Bring Me said no to headlining Download when they were offered it last minute when someone else pulled out as they wanted to be first choice or nothing. I've not bothered checking who's actually free during Download but just look Hellfest which is the week before and other Euro rawk fests who have Avenged Sevenfold, Metallica, Guns n Roses, Aerosmith, Foo Fighters etc about so there could be a decent upgrade on KISS if they do pull out. Personally I'd like to see them use this as a chance to take a punt with the deflecting shield of it was an emergency booking. Bump up someone like Ghost, KoRn or Five Finger Death Punch who are close to headline status anyway or try booking someone who is outside of the typical Download booking like Queens Of The Stone Age, Royal Blood or The Cure to add diveristy of the headliners pool. Not quite. The BMTH story is that they were originally asked to headline and then when Rammstein became available, they were asked to bump down to sub them and they told them where to go.

Maybe they’ll all shit their pants and come to terms with their mortality and pull out for the safety of each other… BMTH would be perfect because R&L is already sold out so it wouldn’t make a difference to sales. If they’re free, Sevenfold would make sense if they’re in Europe at the time. I think Avenged are playing European festivals in June so definitely possible unless there’s another heavy festival to be announced in the UK as Metallica, Avenged and Slipknot are in Europe with no UK dates this summer.

If that’s the case then why are so many Download goers giving Bring Me shit for pulling out? It seems reasonable enough to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knotfest UK still feels possible but would expect to hear something soon. Metallica I think 2023. There are quite a few European countries they would normally hit up on a tour that have no 2022 date scheduled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiral_Low Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 Download have said on Instagram and Twitter there will be news about Spiritbox being moved to a bigger stage 'soon'. Hopefully we get the rest of the line up then too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewayiam Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Looking at the Papa Roach and Sum 41 and Simple Plans tours, the first and the latter must be possible to be added. Surely a fresh set of acts coming soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archi Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 New names tomorrow morning (10am UK Time)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Day Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Can’t be a huge amout left to complete the line up. With a few American bands pulling European tours, I do wonder if Kiss will be replaced before June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 I think we will see a few changes to what we’ve already got because of US bands pulling European treks (OMAM have done so already). Can’t describe how much I’d like to see BMTH’s logo in the place of KISS’ tomorrow morning 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pottsy2913 Posted February 24, 2022 Report Share Posted February 24, 2022 Cool new poster design, but just very…eh Skindred have got quite a high slot I thought, surprisingly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiral_Low Posted February 24, 2022 Report Share Posted February 24, 2022 So Spiritbox very likely to clash with Baroness now and the rest of the announcement does nothing for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
