The 1975, Olivia and Fender wouldn't shock anyone at this point.    Maybe but theh are in between so it's basically they need someone, so they've called them. 

I mean more so the change of what they are doing as in how it looks like two different festivals being booked into one. I don't think they need to book more lighter stuff to adapt to the heavier undercard that aren't big enough on a larger scale to move up but it'll alienate the crowd. You need to be spreading acts that would not be download in general across the days or the longer it goes it'll continue to be unbalanced and not have enough of one type of acts for either crowd.   Talking of sleep token, I might be wrong but i see them being a case of they'll sell tickets to their own gigs but a lot of them don't care about Download.   You've got a band in Korn that have played like 7 times and the most tickets they've ever sold at their own tour here in one gig is 24k. Yet, so many people would take them over a band that's sold 110k.

Calling @cb4747 to step up for duty! 😂

If they're the places you think are good options then just see what's available if you or your fellow buyers are lucky enough to get that far in the sale process.  Essentially if you get to the page to choose and they're there, you're pretty lucky.

Only if you search in here and find older posts that mention them positively. Otherwise the sniff test.   Most of those selling them now will only sell them with accommodation and therefore the combined cost will be eyewatering to most of us, whereas you used to be able to pick them up from some places for cost price-ish.
