2000 Trees 2024

[skillfulperson]

Just got my 3 day ticket. First time going but couldn't resist the discount and the free refunds. 

Are we missing out on anything special on the 4th day?

The Forest opens up on the Wednesday night with a few bands and a silent disco until around 1am. If you're not bothered by that then no not really.

When do Trees usually announce a good chunk of the lineup?

Could Limp Bizkit do it?

I was thinking much the same as I left Gunnersbury the other night.

More liekly for download i would imagine?

[scrubbertheman]

Y'ello... Help me make a decision please.... I am done and DONE with Download. I've had some wild times there, and some meh times. This year was great for me, but I'm not getting any younger (52 by next season) and Donington is exhausting.

I'm seriously considering 2000Trees as an alternative. This year's lineup looked alright, and the location is about an hour and a half better.

I hear good things about Bloodstock all the time, but the lineups there are typically too relentlessly heavy for me. I prefer a bit more variety in rock genres. 

The biggest problem is going to be convincing the guys I usually go to DL with. 

Any words of wisdom?

We did 2000Trees this year for the first time. We are both 58.

We loved it and booked again for next year. Couldn't really fault anything.

Yes please for the acts in bold. I’d also like to see Rise Against do it but think they’d want to headline and doubt that’d happen. 

[Nice to Michu]

Was thinking could Neck Deep headline this? Or are they not a right fit for Trees?

First headliner announced next week

Monday?

While She Sleeps just headlined Ally Pally, and shortly after it's done and they don't need to promote or shift tickets for it Trees have a headliner announcement to make 

I'm not a betting man but I feel like it's very likely that Sleeps are one of the headliners for next year, seeing as they have history with the festival and have played multiple times in the past too

Would be a fantastic start!

My money is also on Sleeps but they could also easily be at either Slam Dunk or Download.

Sleep token?

Just because they've said they've got an announcement next week or more than that?

Based on solid info or just positive thoughts?

I'm guessing it's because they've got an announcement next week and hinted that it's across the pond, not any info.

They fit that JEW slot to a T to be honest, not enough to get me there though.
