POR will be a sub, and I guess we have 2 more subs to come. 55DP opposite System I didn't expect but that's fine, hopefully for AFI below them. Kind of expecting ADTR and Alter Bridge to fill those two sub slots now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilman Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 I can't see 5FDP against SOAD. It would be a strange and hellish clash for me. System would win though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmongascy Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 it'd be stranger to have either zombie or slayer clash with soad imo so it could be that five finger requested to headline second, thats if they were offered the 3rd from top slot again.

King101 Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 I would guess FFDP, Zombie and Slayer will be a mix of 2nd stage headliners and 3rd on mainstage. Zombie works opposite Biffy, FFDP could be 3rd to SOAD and Slayer could fit either slot on the Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 I don't think we've seen indicators for anyone other than PoR there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gozpot Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Agree with what @King101 said, think it's plausible that they could be a mixture of 3rd top on Main or 2nd stage headliners. I think the only real indication there is that PoR will indeed be sub-headlining, im guessing under SoaD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Prophets of Rage would fit nicely under SOAD or Aerosmith. Would be weird going into Biffy I think. What days will they be available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewayiam Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 I doubt we are that far away from another announcement and I think Rancid need to be in it if they are playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Punk Sucks Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Didn't someone on here say that Rancid won't be playing as they're at BST? Or have I made that up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete76 Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Rock on the range from Ohio announced line-up. Alter Bridge & Zack Sabbath should be at Download.

The Offspring seem potential every year so i wouldn't think this adds anything to them being booked. Suppose it puts basically every band on that list down as a possibility aside from Metallica, Soundgarden (most likely), Korn as they played last year. If i could pick 3 bands off that list i'd probably go with The Offspring, Thrice and the ever reliable Frank Carter. 2 minutes ago, thewayiam said: I think Sum 41 and The Offspring/Papa Roach have a chance of Reading, bar that any others I'd expect at Download. What Sum 41 who did just about every other European August festival last year except Reading? And The Offspring who have played shows in the UK in the summer every year for the last 4 years but haven't returned to Reading since 2011? Don't think Reading really want them/are offering them a slot they feel they deserve. Papa Roach only played in 2014 and haven't done Download since 2013? Personally i think all 3 are much more likely for Download than Reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering from than lineup Reading has about two of them each time and one was a big headliner this time then that would be correct. Papa Roach being 3 years is fine.
