LazyDavid Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Busted again! I'm gunna guess Boston Manor, though would love for it to be a bigger act like Architects or Shikari Edited August 5, 2021 by LazyDavid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justanothername Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Four Year Strong is such a massive loss for me along with Free Throw. The only artists from the original line up that I really want to see are Chunk! and Your Demise. I think the total number of artists that has pulled out is greater than the number of artists I still want to see which is really gutting though understandable. For artists I really want to see it's only those 2, Funeral for a Friend and Loathe so it's looking a bit sparse for me. Still looking forward to the weekend though, just praying that Chunk! don't clash as otherwise I'm kinda screwed :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jump Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 The Vandals are the only band I’d miss that pulled out but Creeper and The Skints more than make up for it for me. I’m still 50/50 about getting a tix, it’s just a really busy period for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkaline Trio I want to see as it's been ages but them and Creeper with some filler who I am happy to watch just isn't justified. Also got to get to drive from Wales to get there so just going to stay in Wales and see some stuff before heading home. Potentially pop to Rhosilli Bay for an hour or so.

sacred shape Posted August 9, 2021 Report Share Posted August 9, 2021 I feel like Salem might do a secret set. Will is already there and at the original DL this year he was due to do both bands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacred shape Posted August 10, 2021 Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 With HO99O9 and Spiritbox pulling out of R&L, are we still expecting bands to drop from this? Like Mayday Parade are playing shows 2 days after SD and Alkaline Trio haven't even got SD on their website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just doesn't look like it because they have their US your pop up before you "enter site". But once you enter they've still got slam dunk on their tour page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess would be for a Frank Turner solo set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted August 10, 2021 Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 Salem as a secret set would be majorly underwhelming. They’re a tiny band as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foolee Posted August 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 I’ve had to get a refund for my tickets, the amount they’ve removed from the lineup and now the clashes for me means I don’t have much I’d want to see as I’m watching Don Broco oh their tour and seeing Static Dress as Burn It Down. I can’t justify the hotel and travel costs to Leeds from Bath and for the lineup it’s not worth the £85 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still looks a cracking lineup in my opinion, its not the same as it was and a big miss of some of the us bands, but looking at the clashfinder (obviously its up in the air) plenty to keep me occupied throughout the day. Less than an hour journey for me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two bands to watch early and getting from Swansea to Hatfield for for midday and in is too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jump Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 I personally prefer the US bands pulling out as Capdown, The Skints, Frank Turner and Creeper are great additions and have made the line up look better for me. The band that pulled out who I miss the most is Refused who aren't even American. I was hoping to see them again to make up for the hellish co-headlining Thrice show they did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary1979666 Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 Exactly - given the circumstances, it's a pretty great line up. Slam dunk clashes are part of the festival - it's good that there's so many good bands to fit in. Also lots of other bands further down that I can try out. Love it! My big choices look like: Spunge vs Alk3 (Prob Alk 3, as seeing Spunge in Oct). We Are the In Crown vs Skints (WATIC as not seen them) FFAF vs Frank T (Frank - more sing alongs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyDavid Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 If the Clashfinder doesn't change too much with the official stage times I don't think I've got any clashes except Don Broco and While She Sleeps Potentially my favourite part of the day looks like the Stray From The Path -> Your Demise -> Trash Boat run on the Jagermeister back to back, will be a case of just turning around on the spot if I stand in the middle of the tent haha In other news, Architects have moved their UK + Germany tour to May next year, ends currently on 20th May, in with an early shout for next year?

joelovesleeds! Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 Alkaline Trio are down for 45 mins on the clashfinder, is it optimistic to think they might get longer? Over 20 years of music, coming over from the US just for this weekend, seems too short to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jump Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 With the amount of British bands that have American singing voices on the line up will people even miss the US acts? 😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
