Download 2025

Biggest band in the world Green Day will be on a private jet and eating lobster in the next country before anyone even realises. They’ll also have two set ups on the go. 

[chilltheory]

Regardless if Green Day on the Friday feels "off" if Green Day replied to Download who are trying to book them with "sure we'll play, but we can only do the Friday due to our other performance schedules." Coppings not gonna turn around and go "oh, in that case, naaah."

They aren't the biggest band into the world though

How likely are Limp Bizkit to return to Download next year? They went down very well this year!

Bands towards the top of the bill never do two years in a row 

 

I think LB will headline next time they do it 

[Spiral_Low]

Green Day - Slipknot - Korn

 

Green Day - SOAD - Korn

 

Green Day - Sleep Token - Korn

 

🤔

It was slight hyperbole but they’re top 4-5 constantly touring bands. AC/DC, Foos, Metallica, Coldplay, Green Day. That is about it. The point still stands. Them jumping between two relatively close countries isn’t going to be any sort of issue.

Wild anyone thinks this rules them out of Download, it makes far more sense to have GD Friday and ST Saturday for the young'uns still in school

This is the reason why if they have had to let Green Day do a Glastonbury show too then they have. They can't forever expect to get who they want after using the bands that play for them...many recently of which unless they've bowed to demands can't sell out their own outdoors and not bow to other demands too.

 

There could be thing like Slipknot didn't bands it again or whatever but without a strong band and if need be Friday that could be the weakest trio they've had....and its by far not the strongest.

Also, wedging Sleepy T between to bands a lot of people will want to see in Green Day and KoRn will as many people arrive on time for the Friday as possible.

I'm aware there was a 'slight'....A LOT of hyperbole lol.

So small point to consider and probably irrelevant but anyway.....

 

Slipknot's anniversary tour is exactly that, 14 songs from their debut album, nothing else. It's only just over an hour long.

 

Now Download haven't done co-headliners before. But if they wanted Slipknot doing this tour then I feel they'd have no choice but to.

 

Therefore perhaps it could be:

 

Green Day - Slipknot + Sleep Token - Korn 

 

Sleep Token do an 80 min headline set 7:30 - 8:50pm. Then Slipknot do the first album 9:30 - 10:35pm

I think you'd be more likely to get Slipknot and Korn.

I mean every Download headliner plays at least some of their set in the daylight it doesn't really get dark till like 10pm on a sunny day in June.

US tour with Metallica

[NorthernSoul52]

I do find it a bit weird sometimes. Something to be said for the post-2200 start you can get at Glastonbury.

It’s really not, is it. They sell out stadium after stadium and headline festival after festival no matter where they are in the world. They’re at the very top table and it’s not even debatable. 

[Andre91]

We need an announcement because people are now suggesting Slipknot co-headline. It’s never happening. 

[NorthernSoul52]

On the subject of short headliner sets, did I see it was sixty-five minutes for MCR at WWWY the other day?

 

That's soft, even if it pretty much is just the album as billed.

Everyone’s set times at that festival look dodgy. I think FOB are the only ones who got a typical full set time.
