I'd love Rise Against, argue they could headline a stage (or maybe sub The Offspring?)

Yeah they could sub. That would be perfect for me. Pretty sure NFG will be back too but they would be 3rd down now. Fest is much bigger since they subbed.

Socials have gone black, announcement soon?

ngl kinda hoping for Blink 182 with Tom back in the band, would be a fantastic headliner for Slammy

does this likely mean announcement today or just in the next few weeks? 

[justanothername]

Would be quite early for an announcement. Earliest they've done it is like late September.

[Jericode]

I doubt it'll be today but they might announce the headliner announcement in the next few days.

Any idea what the black eludes to?  Black Parade? Black Flag? Black Sabbath?  Clearly none of those, but no idea myself.

It's a blackout

[Jericode]

Yeah it's not a hint they're just getting rid of the old images.

Would be an impossible headliner for Slammy D. That’d be like expecting Tool to play ATG. 

[LazyDavid]

On a serious (yet awfully meh) note, could it be All Time Low? Could be waiting for Reading & Leeds to start/finish to announce it and maybe Turnstile for next year as they've now played at All Points East?

Rock Scene: All Time Low

Dickies: The Offspring

Jagermeister: Turnstile

Rock Sound: Four Year Strong

Key Club: Bob Vylan

All Time Low would be uninspired given they only did 2019 but I'd still love it.

I fully think PID will be back this year. I'd be surprised by a Offspring clash with All Time Low. For me this year, Neck Deep and Alexisonfire cater differently to Sum 41.

I'm going to go with a PID stage with NOFX returning, I fully expect LTJ to return 3rd down too.

Turnstile has to be in with a shout, but I think they could sub it instead. It's not my zone totally though.

My guess is The Offspring with Rancid underneath aka Dropkicks, Sum 41. I'd go with NFG and FYS the two below them. Obviously that is bias but it fits too.

Blink offered to play Trees but the festival couldn’t afford them so had to say no, but obviously without Tom.

[Suprefan]

Botch just released their first new song in 20 years but doubt thats somebody they would get. More for 2000 Trees.

[justanothername]

I reckon Turnstile will be at Slam Dunk just because Download will drop the ball on them.

Yeah not gonna be at Slam Dunk. Reckon a very high slot for them at ATG next year if they do tour.

Seetickets have updated the ticket page with the 2023 logo. Might be very soon.

Tuesday’s the day then.

[sacred shape]

Shikari have an announcement for Tuesday so I'd say they're pretty nailed on

[Henrik]

Bring it! 

Had a blast this year. 

[gary1979666]

I reckon I'll be there too - will need to bring my 10 year old, but think he'll love it.  No pits though 😒

As long as it's just the Alexis or Neck Deep slot. This would be the worst outcome for the main headliner.
