I feel like they are the easy way out, similar to Kings of leon. 

Personally i haven't yet seen them live so it could be worse for me.

 

[Matt86]

At least now people here will take in consideration the possibility of Ava Max for " 👑 " clue lol..

Anyway, this line up is pretty good to me ^^

I'm sure Leaks seemed to scoff at the idea that Imagine Dragons might be the rock headliner......and yet they're a damn sight more rock than Mumford and his banjo.

Yes, because it is 😉

 

[Matt86]

and just to cry a bit :

Mumford : 9M listenners/month on spotify... Ava Max 31M. Now who's the headliner lol...

[swelsbyuk]

If it IS Mumford, when they could (potentially) have gone for Blur or The Killers, then they better have one hell of an undercard that day.

[Matt86]

Lil Nas X, The Offspring, Rina Sawayama, Purple disco machine, Queens of the stone age, Sam Smith, RHCP, Prodigy, Ava Max, ... damn there's many names I would take for Sziget ! 😮

Things doesnt work that way.

But just hypothetically, she would sub Sziget or lower?

I know lol, but still that's a good indicator ^^

I'd say sub, since Lorde is for many people here headliner status, with "only" 17M/month.. (and before I get scream at, I DO like Lorde lol. I just don't consider her as headliner material)

Pride - Kendrick Lamar? 😅

Will be a minority — saw Mumford at Sziget in 2018, and for me it was the best set of a festival, and probably one of the best concerts I’ve been at all. Don’t understand the hate, TBH. 
 

Still it’s funny but true that Imagine Dragons have more “rocky” sound live than M&S.

Got a Vegas residency during Sziget. 

Yes, I did check as I'm desperately clutching at straws that it's not Mumford.....

Do you think M&S makes sense? They are in Europe in July then end of July they are in Canada, then end of august they are in the US. Would it make sense for them to come back to europe for a few weeks in august?

Let's hope not. I assume they have lots more summer dates to announce but not sure where else in Europe they could play. Most festivals' headliners seem to have already been announced.

I don't hate M&S, in fact I quite like a few tracks. I just think they'd be a massively underwhelming, tired bit of nothing booking.
