Thursday
MS1 Ozzy Osbourne - Pantera.
MS2 Judas Priest - In Flames.

Friday
MS1 Ghost - Gojira.
MS2 Parkway Drive - Architects.

Saturday
MS1 SlipKnot - Lamb Of God.
MS2 Avenged Sevenfold - Disturbed.

Sunday
MS1 Def Leppard - Alter Bridge.
MS2 Mötley Crüe - Hollywood Vampires.

Some updates ideas...

 

This lineup makes a lot of sense I think. My only objections would be Ozzy (considering his health issues, I don't see how he will be fit to be on stage next June) and Judas Priest (two times in a row would be too much).

Dont see Ozzy and Judas Priest playing Graspop. Plus, Ghost and Parkway Drive seem a rather small headliner duo.

About Ozzy, he has - for now - his tour booked in May with Judas Priest as opener. Nothing in Belgium and as he came so often at Graspop as solo artist or with Black Sabbath that I don't see him finish his career without a last show in Belgium. If the GMM can take Judas Priest one more time with that, I don't think they'll hesitate... unfortunately.

About the duo Ghost/Parkway Drive, I made a mistake: I read PWD should play on Saturday. So we could have Ghost/Avenged Sevenfold on Friday and SlipKnot/Parkway Drive on Saturday which could be really sick tbh!

If Ozzy can get back on his feet and tour, then I think he'll be at GMM. It will be a risky booking though with a constant concern of a potential cancelation. When it comes to festivals and because Judas Priest are a big name (not your average support that a big band drags along) I don't think they depend on each other.

Tbh, I'd love to see Ozzy one last time. But only if he is strong enough to perform and sing, otherwise I don't want my last memory of a legend to be that "oh! this is sad" feeling.

leaked Graspop clashfinder - Metallica, Slipknot, Avenged, Motley. Stage times and all - at least 3/4 sound legit to be touring, a promoter confirmed it's 95% real.

So many weird choices in this timetable...

1. Metallica: I'll believe it the day I see them on the official website of Graspop.
2. Metallica - Nightwish - Limp Bizkit: Too big to be true. I think if they booked them one day, we gonna have a poor line-up around like they did in 2017 with Rammstein.
3. Avenged Sevenfold + Parkway Drive: Friday seems to young and too good to be true but I really hope it could happen.
4. Killswitch Engage: They won't be there as they play festivals in August. 
5. Epica: Sub of SlipKnot and above Architects doesn't fit right so is the all North Stage on Saturday.

Lol, bollocks. This clashfinder was made by a Festileaks user who confirmed it's a mix of wishlist and estimated guesses.

Very good guesses in that case! Pantera and Porcupine Tree are both confirmed for Hellfest - Pantera is doing stand alone gigs too, will be happy to see them in Romania.

Where did you see Pantera was confirmed for Hellfest? Even if there aren't really a suspense about it, I haven't seen any confirmations yet.

Belgium has one of Metallica's favorite festival: Rock Werchter. When they don't play there, they've played a one-off event on Werchter's field or a stadium show in Brussels. I think 2 shows at Stade Roi Baudouin Stadium are more likely to happen than Graspop. But I'd love to be wrong of course!

Not if it's a festival only tour

And RaR/RiP.

That'd be an odd announcing strategy though. Them voluntarily dropping a big chunk of their lineup with 2 headliners blanked out, would rather imply those headliners won't be announced soon. Otherwise they could've just waited 4 more days before dropping the poster?

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury
