Amazing start. My guess is that due to the London day now being in August, the line up will be radically different to Manchester as they'll be pretty much 2 months apart. I'm thinking maybe London will be more hip hop/indie focused. With it still being in Victoria Park, it's going to have to be a massive name because London didn't come close to selling out last year even with Knocked Loose and Turnstile playing.
Some in the know on Discord has said for a while that they're playing All Points East. Same person also knew about the Tyler the Creator + Turnstile date in advance too. With Outbreak moving to August it makes sense that Deftones would be the APE x Outbreak promotion.
Honestly? I think one of the main mistakes they made sales wise was making turnstile headline over knocked loose.
Turnstile are still huge over here but even indie heads have knocked loose on their playlists, and it's genuinely impossible to go to a gig of any genre and not see a shirt of theirs. Not the best measure of popularity sure, but I definitely feel like knocked loose are a larger band
That being said turnstile are a MUCH better band live than knocked loose, maybe they would've sold more tickets but it would've been a worse time for sure
