You sent us into a very brief frenzy on the official forums thinking this was a leak 😂

Deep Purple would be wild. Was pretty certain they didn't do festivals where they're second-billed because Gillan's ego couldn't take it?

Piss-poor sales in Leeds last year, to be frank. Definitely a sub, possibly even third, despite their legacy and reputation.

Coheed and Cambria would be terrific sauce.

Official drop is 4pm tomorrow but I can't imagine it's not leaked by tonight

One of the OG leakers thinks people are being cautious dropping the actual graphic as it's got some sort of data attached that might ID them, watermark etc

Not on that above list, but have just twigged - The Gaslight Anthem's latest batch of US dates runs exclusively through May next year.

That's enough of a hunch for me to think they may have EU shows in the summer. Can only imagine Download for them now - they drew a pitiful crowd in '15, just before the "hiatus", at R+L. (They might well be kicking around at Glastonbury too.)

Four o'clock tomorrow can't come soon enough.

Legit leaker from last time before the poster dropped has said Clutch and Carcass to keep us fed until then (or it inevitably drops on Reddit later)

Think Trees could be after them as a headliner? Pretty perfect fit in terms of size and sound. Would also explain why they've still been unannounced.

Hadn't even crossed my mind. Would be a very good shout. Love them, but find it hard to judge size. Was at the O2 Apollo gig in Manchester, which was a sweaty sell-out, but from what I saw, they were maybe 60% filled at Wembley Arena, which is a bit of a shame.

I’ll take that all day if it’s real. Think it might be as there’s no Seether on the poster and I heard the other day that they had pulled out.

Disappointed about no Limp Bizkit but with Alter Bridge, FFDP, Halestorm, Carpenter Brut (who I was really hoping for), Clutch and Electric Callboy being added (and that’s just the bigger bands, haven’t even done a deep dive into the smaller font) I’m really happy with that line up!

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
