Korn seem to be headlining almost every Rock/Metal festival in Europe
Yes I understand that just because they headline other similar sized European festivals it doesn't mean that they are big enough in the UK but Hellfest have also given them the bump up after being a second stage headliner/main stage sub before so I don't understand why people are refusing to believe that they haven't grown in popularity recently (like Nu Metal in general)
Sleep Token's ticket sales speak for themselves you're just deluded if you don't think they are big enough now
Re: discussion on who Download missed out on -
I think Download have a good set of headliners, I just think the support bill is really poor. Personal taste though of course.
Deftones and Judas Priest doing their own shows whilst Download books Steel Panther once again? Hmmmmmm.....
I consider myself young and I'd love to see Pulp at Glasto, even though I saw them a few months ago.
Anyway, I understand that booking a lineup the size of Glastonbury is complex and there are many factors to consider. But for me, it's rare and quite unusual that there are subs like Chappell who could draw a bigger crowd than a hideliner like the 1975. But maybe I'm underestimating them.
I've missed most of them over last decade or so, and before that when I did used to go I still managed to miss a lot of the headliners...but I'll go for
1. Bowie
2. Stevie Wonder
3. Coldplay (yes really, first time they headlined before they got silly)
4. Gorillaz (the guests...I mean you have Mark E Smith, Sean Ryder, Lou Reed and Bobby Womack fgs)
5. The Cure (1990)
lol, this is this festival "particularity" : it's mostly Rap and Rock, everyday (with a little bit of pop or electro)
4 stages, including one which always is rock or metal.
