I was told specifically Friday, but I can revisit. I see the day as largely irrelevant, personally, with any headliner (until clashes become apparent later down the line).

Fairplay lad. Things like the day can change with time anyway.

FWIW I had info on 'the third' headliner. It's not substantial enough for me to share/put my neck on the line though, so I won't be sharing until it comes back with more substance behind it. The name has been mentioned in this thread.

 

Sorry, appreciate that's some Monday carrot dangling.

There's 191 pages! Who's going to make a list of every name mentioned.

 

If i may ask - has it been mentioned recently like past 10-20 pages?

What, you mean you don't have 'when was name mentioned' spreadsheet? 😂

 

Yes, to your question.

Even if it did that narrows it to about 5 lol

Reading between the lines this seems to strengthen the case for it not to be the three newbies.

 

So its an O-Rod / Fred or Fender / Rihanna or Stevie or Eminem (rather than O-Rod / Fred / Fender)

[OllieMadd]

Green Day have announced a show on the Sunday of Download in Italy which for me does some damage to their chances of playing there... Are they back in contention for the big G?

I'd be very surprised if it's O-Rod, Fender and Fred in whatever combination. It's a move after the gamble last year I don't see them making unless again Rihanna and Stevie say no. Genuinely think Eminem will go for money but happy to be proved wrong.

Oh wow so they are Friday Download if at all now. 

[OllieMadd]

That Green Day Saturday sure looks like a spot for the pyramid.

 

Acts very often play Luxembourg before / after the G also. 

 

I'm all in. Green Day 2025.

 Either that's what's happening or Green Day are Friday at Download which I wouldn't rule any out yet.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Download is more or less confirmed by Download itself.

[Ben7amin_]

Download already released that pretty less than subtle hint that Greenday were headlining 

[4AssedMonkey]

Was just going to pop up here suggested Green Day back on the table based on those dates.  If they are in line, then with 2 of the youngsters - O-Rod, Fred... and Fender I think we have a pretty strong and balanced trio.  Personally, I'd say that taking Fender out of that equation works best.

What if they do both given Glastonbury will be sold out by November?, and the alternative was Download booked Slipknot again or someone that wasn't ready yet and suffered.

[Avalon_Fields]

There's not too many we've mentioned in the last 20 pages, excluding the highly unlikely and the front runners there's:

 

Blur

Sheeran

Pulp

The Cure

F Mac

H Styles

Green Day

Kings of Leon

S Wonder

 

('ve probably missed the key one!)

[RichieSpenno]

Green day announcing more dates soon and with the download announcement being Nov 12th I can see that being the same announcement.

Metallica aside - which was a noted exception - there's just no history there of sharing headliners.

No there isn't, but this year just gone was a much different look you could say and there is only so long they can keep doing that. They've had to give Metallica two nights to get them back. Green Day could say we could play BST and Glastonbury. It's probably not happening though it might be the choice between that and booking Slipknot again.

You're all mental for thinking one single post by a social media team means anything

Apparently last year they did a post referencing the black parade, making everyone think MCR would headline - and they didn't.

 

Not saying they're not doing Download, but Live Nation are scum and will do anything to sell tickets

I would love this. Not someone I like enough to pay a ton for at their own gig but would 100% be there if they topped the Pyramid.
