A lot of bands will do Aus/NZ in Jan/Feb then make their way over to Europe by May. 

 

I can't see system doing their own shows 2 years running but a festival run would be worth their time.

Oh I very much hope so. Any festival getting Blink and SOAD in the same year is onto a winner for me, I just hope it's Werchter being one of them

[TWY2911]

If they get Blink and System I genuinely don't care who the third headliner is could genuinely be Elvana for all I care

[Andre91]

If you’ve got Blink and SOAD booked, have Faith No More headline. It’s what the people want.

Imagine FNM subbing SOAD though

As long as Deftones are the last headliner, this works for me, brother!

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet but the new A7X EP is absolutely horrendous

Agreed, I couldn’t listen to a full song. Terrible.

I’m a big time LiBaD defender, but Statica is completely atrocious. Practically unlistenable.

 

Matt needs to lay all the way off the shrooms man.

SOAD and FNM aus/nz tour confirmation 

 

I've now deluded myself into thinking that we are getting both at Download 

 

Hopefully it's happening 🤞

Well one thing for sure is that Download will go for FNM next year.

 

Not enough to convince me quite yet, it's too close to the states compared to just hopes back there for the year.

I’ve always heard Blink and FNM are locks for weeks now

Still don't see FNM headlining although I wouldn't be against it personally 

 

I think if they have Blink and System (not saying they do) they can get away with a 'weak' third headliner

I agree tbh. 
 

Blink and SOAD would enable them to go cheaper on the 3rd, so FNM or Deftones could get that spot, I’m personally not a fan of the idea of either being headliner but I’m also aware SOAD and Blink would be a hell of the budget gone

Blink - SOAD - Muse

The further away we get from any Slipknot announcement for a new album makes them unlikely albeit there is still plenty of time.

 

I don't think either should but it'll be budget. As had been mentioned recently from other places though, Live Nation are not strapped for cash but also without an alternative option they don't have to spend as much. Blink, Slipknot and SOAD with FNM taking second stage headliner would be the one.

Blink & BMTH locked in, supposedly.

I heard this on the DL forum just after 2026 ended...

 

There was suggestions of blink, Bmth and deftones, but given deftones sold out their tour in seconds, think that may be too strong.

If the festival pulled in SOAD then that trio isn't too strong at all. Blink, SOAD and BMTH is way bigger than that trio in itself.

[TWY2911]

Blink/SOAD/BMTH is definitely what I'm hoping for if Bring Me being their is true

 

But I think Blink/BMTH/Deftones is probably more likely

Well the time to fly to Aus for them is long than to fly here. The biggest indication will be later September when RAR and Nova Rock announce their first drop. If they can't get SOAD back over then nor will Download. Neither of those will be vying for or feel a need to get Slipknot either as played both last year

It's three arena bands i'd argue that trio would be cheaper than this years trio and maybe even 2025 because green day would of cost a fair wack 

 

A trio of Blink/SOAD/BMTH would be more expensive

I'm not sure Blink couldn't do bigger than arenas but they have the option I guess over festivals already announced. They couldn't do them everywhere like a SOAD though for example.

Malevolence announced for Wacken in August so I can see DL missing out on them and them headlining Bloodstock.
