Nova Rock 26

Like I said in the previous thread I think that GnR is unlikely since there concert in Vienna didn't sell all that well even with Sex Pistols and Wolfmother as support. 

 

Iron Maiden would fit really well, and I could see Limp Bizkit headline as well. A outside candidate that I could see confirmed for Nova and Rar/Rip is Volbeat

Based on Barracuda's (the festivals promotors) booking history, I kinda expect Twenty One Pilots to be announced tomorrow 

They would fit more with Frequency festival than Nova Rock, and they are already booked for Hurricane and Southside, and since both Rar/Rip announce tomorrow as well I think it's very likely that they gonna share a head

No Foos

That's a massive set of headliners to be fair. I think that puts Maiden with a very big chance of being at rock am ring and they shared 6 headliners in the past two years I believe with 5 of those being all the main stage, A7X being RAR second stage and Tenacious D subbing RAR while headlining Nova.

 

No Foos is a surprise which likely rules out RAR two only two years later.

It’s mostly a “usual suspects” bag of names but there’s a lot of names on there I really like, definitely on my radar that. Love that we’ve got a few big dominos falling this week to help get a sense of what’s about

I wouldn't go as there isn't enough there despite the price and a LP headed festival is what I'm after.

Yeah that’s fair enough, LP played at Rock for People last year so they’re not as much as a priority for me this season

How was RfP? Considering it this year

In my experience I can only echo what @turnero said really; they really went above and beyond this year line up wise I felt with it being their 30th anniversary but I feel it’ll deliver again this year. There’s always a band on somewhere too, great variety

Amazing, highly recommended. 

We were there for the very first time this year.

Great bands, nice atmosphere, large options of great food and more importantly - cheap beers.

Unreal, got our ring tickets already but toying with the idea of doing a day or two at Nova or RfP, if they announce bring me it'll probably swing me to the Czech republic.

    • 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.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
