I’m shocked that it’s the first festival/live music event in over a year and people are asking that to be shown and would willingly watch it over bands. Don’t mean to sound harsh but anyone wanting to watch the football could always not go to this and watch it at home so others can just enjoy music and the festival. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he is saying that he’s going to watch it at home and not go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Creeper already confirmed they're headlining second. I also think Neck Deep will be on the 'main' stage & Sleep Token on second.

Creeper, Frank Turner and Sleep Token headlining second sounds about right. Wargasm have said they're on main which works out right with it.

Is the second stage in a tent? Oh my days, even better...

It confirmed some of the basics including an open stage and a tented stage: Quote There will be one arena that will enclose the whole festival. This includes the campsite, the two stages and the traders. The main stage will be an open-air stage and second will be in a tent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what demand is like. I assume high. And how many places there are for that matter Literally the first weekend in nearly 18 months that I've had plans that can't really move.. Yeah, I think high demand. My guess is that places are going to be a combination of fastest finger first and sheer luck in terms of when they press refresh. While I don't know how many places there are, or how many are on the list, given that the list that's being used is almost all very regular volunteers I have to assume a large majority of those who received invitations will be applying. Just about everyone will have a deposit lodged already, and so signing up is literally going to be a case of 2/3 clicks and done - I suspect that some people will see the "sold out" message before they even see it go live.

dannymichaels Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 What bands are you looking forward to, if you manage to get a ticket that is? For me, this is easily my favourite lineup and I really hope I can get a ticket. Nothing against regular Download but it seems to cater to the older audience nowadays. I'm 28 and I'm much more into the "Slam Dunk" style bands. Neck Deep, Boston Manor, Holding Absence, Hot Milk, Shikari, While She Sleeps, Creeper, Twin Atlantic, Yonaka, Vukovi, The Hara, Bleed From Within, Bullet, Trash Boat, Cassyette, Saint Agnes... And they're just the bands I want to see. Bands like Skindred and Frank Carter/Turner I'm not too fussed about, but I'd still watch them if i'm not in another crowd.

Could always practice to get the clicks needed down to an art-form - just don't accidentally sign up for Reading in the process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pr0paneNightm4re Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Anyone else confused about the presale? It says on the DL website that we will be sent the links on Tuesday at 12, and that it will go on sale at that time. Surely this is just adding a lot of unnecessary stress having to try and receive the email then access the sale at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone on ticketmaster's twitter said presale emails will be sent before tickets go live at midday, so you probably don't need to worry about that. Also sounds like it may be a "free for all" presale link, rather than unique codes, to gain access. According to the email response someone else got anyway...
