2014 1st headliner

[Com Truise]

Weird, it makes little sense for him to ask for the link if they're not booked

[Dead throne]

Ok, so what about this for the major 3 rock/metal festivals headliners:

Sonisphere:

Bullet

MachineHead

The Prodigy

Chase and Status

Big Headliner (ACDC/Metallica/RATM/1D...if they get them, it's on etc.)

The Offspring

Download:

A7X

Whitesnake (?)

Linkin Park

Alter Bridge

Pearl Jam/Aerosmith

STP

R/L:

Arctic Monkeys

The XX

QOTSA

The Black Keys

Blur/Arcade Fire

Elbow

(Obviously that is a big IF as Sonisphere will probably fail...again, but if it does succeed then I imagine R/L will have a more indie-based line-up than last year)

Whilst Van Halen wouldn't be a massive massive headliner, I can't see them subbing, especially if Zegut is correct and they are only doing Sweden Rock and Download as their only EU festivals (or possibly shows)...would they come all the way from the states just to sub, when they could probably get away with headlining, especially on a year where A7X are being tipped as getting a bump up. That being said the rumoured line up would look much much better if they were a sub, because if Linkin Park and A7X end up being headliners, I can't see that being a massive ticket shifting combo especially when both just played 2011 which sold so-so and that was with A7X subbing.

If Download were struggling for a 3rd headliner (as was the rumour) there's no chance they'd have Van Halen as a sub.

So, based on what we've heard so far, I guess the headliners are between Avenged Sevenfold, Aerosmith, Linkin Park, Van Halen and KISS. Think it'll be the first three, mind.

Who is zegut?

[the wonderwhy]

why not? no-one actually knows for sure until tomorrow so it could be anything.

while zegut's info on Van Halen could be right, it's also fallen through last minute before and not happened.. Plus is it him that actually says about a co-headliner system?, or just that Van Halen set to play
