Unfortunately, Blade's gonna turn up and slaughter everyone halfway through the tour.

Wesley Snipes or Mahershala Ali?

Snipes obviously.

I don't think that Spiritbox right now are bigger than any of FFDP, Evanescence, Placebo, Ghost, Bad Omens, Pantera and Machine Head (not considering the replacements for FFDP and BO), they would be much better playing 3rd down Main.

 

On the other hand, Falling In Reverse are maybe too big for 2nd, they sold more tickets than Ghost's 2022 tour on their upcoming UK run, and the stage area for Ghost was already dangerously overcrowded.

I think the main reason for FIR selling out their UK Tour was because it was their first time playing in the UK I believe

They probably would be more suited to 3rd down but the info is just they are headlining second. To be honest I would say headlining second currently with how the timings and placings work puts you between sub and 3rd place.

Still a mountain of tickets sold.

They still sold out headliner level of tickets, it would be dangerous to put them on 2nd (it already was with Ghost). They really need to upgrade the capacity around the 2nd stage area, in 2023 I was a bit worried with my GF safety, we saw Evanescence and Ghost on there and it was absolutely rammed.

It looks like FIR are headlining the 2nd stage at Rock Im Park and Rock Am Ring so is it possible they may want to headline a stage rather than sub and that was the only way of booking them? Just a thought if they do headline 2nd. Would be a good Sleep Token sub though if Bad Omens aren’t coming back.

I can see them subbing Sleep Token quite easily. Would be dangerous having them headline 2nd stage unless they make the area bigger

If Ghost and Slayer can headline second, Falling In Reverse can no problem. Whilst they’re a really popular band, they’re also hugely decisive.

agree ^ they will have no problem playing second stage. If Pantera, evanescence, ghost, slayer etc can then FiR can no problem

Downloas does suffer from having an awful second stage.

The point is Evanescence never should have, and all those others mwntioned shove have been on main apart from maybe Slayer
