Any other podcast listeners get the vibe from james that both festivals are still a little bit away from getting an announcement last year the weeks leading up he spoke more about the fests and how booking was going.

 

 

Nah, Trees have already said there's is this month in a recent email. I'm guessing it's just not til the last week so they can announce some bands from the Common Thread tour

I actually have a feeling it could be as soon as next week, I know James has said on the pod he's on holiday at the end of the month, and would maybe want to do the announcement when he's around

Ah yeah I remember him saying that and me thinking he'll drop the line up then go on holiday.

Nah, podcast is quite rightly focusing on Damnation at current, so just not talking too much about the other 2 fests.

Saw architects last night, Sam's voice did not sound good

Not good is being kind. It sounded absolutely f**king awful. His singing was fine but has never been that great anyway. His lows are still class but the highs sound like an awful Bryan Garris impression. He used to be my favourite live vocalist but I'd say since COVID he's been brutal.

Would love to see Beans on Toast and Grace Petrie at Trees again. Hopefully we get one or both for next year. Not sure why Beans hasn’t done it again the amount of live shows he does.

Was thinking out him the other day, think he could pop up 2027 as its the 20th anniversary and he was at the first one I believe

He sounded incredible Holy Hell tour 2019. When I saw them in 2023 his vocals were terrible, a huge drop off

They were alright at ally pally but were pretty bad at download in 23 i personally dont think they fit in with 2000trees vibe even if james at one point really wanted them to come play

Yeah they don't really, Bullet have a bit of nostalgia to them, Architects don't so I don't really see them going down particularly well, don't think they'd play anyway, I reckon they'll be main support to Deftones at APE

 

James did wonder if the Trees crowd wants heavier music as the cave was fuller than the Axiom last year, but I'm sure common sense will prevail there in regards to where the bastard sun was pointing most of the day being the reason for that

Is the show still worth seeing though? I haven't caught them live before and they're near me in Oz in December so I'm tempted 

 

Saw them last night and great fun. Sam could probably do more to manage his voice, I would be more then happy if he stopped the growling and sung in a way that suits him more these days.

Architects, Bilmuri, Breaking Benjamin, Papa Roach and President all most likely ruled out of Download given European festivals over the same weekend. Wonder if we could see any at Trees given Slam Dunk also haven't announced any of them yet?

 

Papa Roach would definitely inject some fun into the line-up. I'd love them as a wildcard headliner.

I still enjoyed it as a whole, I didn't think the vocals were as catastrophic as some people on here have said, just off

 

From what I had read on here, I thought it was going to be awful but as you said it just was not quiet right. i think "just off" sums it up perfectly.

Their tour would technically rule them out and make them too big for Trees, 3rd down main stage at like Download at the max for a Trees headliner

 

 

Several Trees headliners have headlined arenas, it doesn't technically rule out anything and Papa Roach haven't played Download in 12 years so nobody knows where they'd play anyway

So tells me the several trees headliners that have done arenas tours?, mot just one smaller arena but tours?, aside Don Broco maybe. 

 

So because Papa Roach haven't played Download in 12 years, the fact they have played Liverpool, Nottingham and Wembley Arena recently and 3rd down bands usually play a couple of Brixton dates on their own/one Ally Pally or Wembley Arena max doesn't give any i dictionary they might well want to play above 3rd down like they are everywhere else they are playing in Europe? Bit if silly statement really.

So you've given me three? I'll give you Broco and Shikari did a few arenas on tour, so where are the others to have played arenas on a tour rather than the odd smaller arena? You're not having Bullet though, they play Nottingham the odd one time when gigs could happen again and Welsh Arena being from Wales lol. Did one Ally Pally years ago. Their biggest tour was unsold off their biggest album way after Trees.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
