Think there was a suggestion going around of Lower Than Atlantis, which would make sense into YM@6.

Yeah, we’re still waiting for that to be announced  

My guess is Lower Than Atlantis too.

Pretty sure there's no room for anybody else on main when you look at the number of bands there have been on each day and the fact that GnR are doing a 3 hour set.

EDIT: Also Stone Sour are doing their own shows, so the best you can hope for from them is a secret set at somepoint.

Will GnR really do a 3 hour set though or will they be proper divas and come on stage about an hour late and just do a normal length set?

i think the same way. but i count 22 bands on main stage this year and last year we had 24. also i dont think thunder are big enough for 3th down so im still hoping  that my boys limp bizkit are coming for this role  as a suprise to the next announcement although i know they have very little chance to show up!!

They've been surprisingly punctual throughout this entire reunion tour - I assume it's been a big part of their contract after years of Axl fucking around. They'll play the full 3 hour set.

Fair enough, the only time I’ve seen them is when they turned up ridiculously late for the shit show at Reading years ago so thought maybe that’s just an Axl thing to do

[Andre91]

Plus, he had to be professional when doing Axl / DC so it’s maybe carried over to GNR.

The new Rolo Tomassi album is out next week and I can’t wait. The three tracks they’ve put out so far are all incredible. I am in love with Aftermath. They are right near the top of my must see list at Download.

Haven't managed to snare them in however many years of going around which is kind of ridiculous.

I would imagine around Easter time but at this point, it would be difficult to tell. 

[Reece1617]

Has anyone listened to Sun Arcana? Just listened through the very few songs they have on Spotify and they sound pretty good. 

[MONTHEBIFF2013]

Just checked out sun arcana, good little find there. Cheers

Meh, not feeling it yet. I'm sure it'll grow on me though.

[Andre91]

Rolo Tomassi’s new album is incredible. Album of the Year stuff for sure. 

[Dukey]

That new Parkway tune is outstanding, can't wait for their set.

The set I’m most looking forward to. It should be absolutely incredible with a full production.

Absolutely, saw them in Leeds last year and that was special. Will be even more special come June!

You can't book everyone and they're doing their own shows. No chance of them getting added.
