Can’t be Architects, they said that whoever it was has never played slam dunk before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d expect Horizon or TOP then. Even though I get the argument that Busted sort of sound like some of the shittest bands that play here, I can’t actually imagine anyone who goes to Slam Dunk to give a fuck about them.

I’m pretty sure bmth are playing late on at radio 1’s big weekend in Middlesbrough which would make sense for them to be playing early on at Leeds on the Saturday then at Hatfield in the Sunday. I just hope it actually isn’t Busted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellbound Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 I think BMTH are a good shout out of the two, think ToP have too much techie kit to drag down south for a 45 minute set.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be so sure of that, Slam Dunk isn't a real punk festival and lot of the crowd would have grown up listening to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon that’s a big shout. I think you're over stating 21P by calling them one of the biggest bands on Earth. The secret act has never played Slam Dunk before. Don Broco are out. I'm going for 21P or Busted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright I’ll change that to one of the biggest ‘contemporary’ bands on earth. Obviously they aren’t near the Stones or Coldplay or whatever but in terms of current popularity I can’t think of many more that are bigger. 6 minutes ago, Andre91 said: They're no different to All Time Low or Waterparks, for example. Of course they wouldn't get bottled. I get why you say that musically, but do the actual people who go to Slam Dunk give a shit about them? Given that they’ve never been pushed by the rock press n all. I don’t actually know any real life Busted fans though so I guess I’m best not to comment aha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought resold tixs and the face value printed on them is £13 so I'm wondering how they manage to do that. The only thing I can think of is if they are a friend of a band and got a discount. When I got stubhub muse e tickets for the o2 it had my name and price I paid on it rather than face value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padjeq Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) Frank Turner and the something Souls played arenas this year. Have they done slammy d before? BMTH playing festival gigs when their own All Points East date a week later has yet to sell out, seems like a reach. They do have precedent, having played Reading and Leeds surprise sets last year. Maybe they want to run through the older and unplayed songs they're gonna bring out at their 2 hour APE set Edited May 21, 2019 by Padjeq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Sleeping Souls and nah, they haven't played Slam Dunk before. If it is him I'd expect a solo acoustic show rather than with the backing band.

Slamdunk said on twitter that the band had been guessed so someone with more time on their hands made this list of the guesses then rules out the ones that had done Slam dunk before..

My money is on them giving more teases but not announce them to build hype in people's head that it's a band people want to see so they can get more folk in early to sell more booze.

I think they might tweet a couple more vague things between now and Friday, but then it will be a walk out Saturday, and that's who it is. I'm not overly arsed as to who it is, as I've seen all the bands people are saying it could be, so i'm just going to go and watch Mad Caddies instead.

"They" are on before Mad Caddies, at least in the South site they are. They are clashing with Anti-Flag, Knocked Loose and Hot Milk on the other stages.
