OPUS: Pantera / Black Stone Cherry 

AVALANCHE: Bury Tomorrow 

DOGTOOTH: Thy Art Is Murder 

 

APEX: Queens of the Stone Age / Royal Blood / Electric Callboy / ???* / Wargasm / Royal Republic / Cassyette 

OPUS: Five Finger Death Punch / Corey Taylor 

AVALANCHE: Dropkick Murphys 

DOGTOOTH: Fear Factory 

 

APEX: Avenged Sevenfold / Machine Head / Beartooth / Babymetal / Mudvayne / LANDMVRKS / Employed To Serve 

OPUS: Sum 41 / Billy Talent 

AVALANCHE: The Menzingers 

DOGTOOTH: Biohazard
 

* I cannot think of anyone to go there 😅

Respect that this is pretty realistic, but that undercard does very little for me. I hope it doesn’t end up too much like that.

What time is the announcement on Tuesday?

Aside from Bloodstock having their final headliner leaked by Big Green Coach have any festivals for next year had their posters leaked?

New Model Army leaked the Bearded Theory line up earlier that day,

Not sure if you were being rhetorical but I wasn’t on about other festivals, just what’s happened with DL in previous years.

The official announcement is Tuesday, just wait till then. The headliners are definitely correct according to my source though so it's up to people whether they believe it or not

Yeah just wondered if there was a reason for the sudden certainty.

A few people have said they've been told the same headliners and pretty much every possible headliner has been ruled out now so not much left

If Avril isn't making it over to Download the following day, I doubt Sum 41 are. Unless they fly private jet and really want to they've got a lot of travelling to be there from Vienna. There is no definite but I bet they are having a day in between shows for Hurricane and Southside and that's 5hrs 30 based in a car. Out of all the days, Sum 41 also fit The Offspring day the most imo. I might be wrong but I think they are going to do their owns shows.

Me neither. Having seen FOB plenty before and The Offspring twice on this tour there is no day ticket.

Slipknot 'parting ways' with Jay Weinberg bit of a shock tonight! Because of 'creative differences'.

Big surprise, that. Crazy that Clown is the only original member left now.

I’m sure Limp Bizkit said they’d see the UK next year, looks like they won’t be doing Download so wonder where they’ll end up?

It's possible they're playing festivals still to announce

I'd be happy with that. For the gap between Electric Callboy and Wargasm I'd put Cannibal Corpse

Looks like they've now deleted the posts from social media (though Instagram story still up) which is weird.

What a sh*tty statement from them as well, basically referring to him as Joey’s replacement and nothing more. I bet he asked for a bigger cut and they decided to show him the door instead. Clown and Corey are a pair of douchers.

@Judas Yeast come on spill the beans, we know you’ve seen the poster 

[Gejonimo]

Bruce Dickinson touring in May, so he's very likely. Fightstar show is a one-off so very unlikely.

Really hope this Fightstar thing is one of those ‘one night only but not really’ kinds of things. Cba going to London for them but would also be very much on board seeing them do a Grand Unification heavy set.

He spilt on the DL Forum.

Fall Out Boy and QOTSA (extremely likely but wern't confirmed at the time) and A7X + The Offspring was all he said he knew.

I was gonna keep quiet as I don't wanna spoil the announcement more than I already have, especially considering it's tomorrow 😂 I've been sent the list of bands though. Made a Spotify playlist and been enjoying that on shuffle this morning

Care to make the playlist public so we can see what you’ve been listening to? 😉

That Fightstar show being a one-off is an absolute bugger. Grand Unification is one of my favourite records, but having just blown my budget for the first half of next year on Bruce Springsteen - no regrets, I should stress! - I don't think I can make the travel and accommodation work for that one.

Tell me about it, my Bruce Springsteen ticket has completely wiped out my frivolities budget for the time being!
