Riot Fest 2025 Tour • Page 18

Pixies are out

 

I'd tend to agree that we'd get one or the other. This is where the Louder Than Life line-up could really help...

 

It's missing some key ingredients but... Isn't Shaky Knees always like this? I think the headliners are skewing everybody's perception of the line-up this time around. Haha.

 

Heart Attack Man and Carpool are out. Playing Bottom Lounge on 7/10

 

Given this is their 20th anniversary for riot give me both Green Day and blink

 

I would be ecstatic for any combination of Green Day, blink, or Paramore.

 

I Didn’t think blink or Green Day would be on ltl. looks like I was right.

 

The Story So Far, Neck Deep, State Champs, Drain, Scowl, Spiritbox, PVRIS, Hatebreed, Story of the Year, Insane Clown Posse, Dillinger Escape Plan, Bring Me the Horizon, Knocked Loose, Testament all seem like possibilities (based on a first glance)

 

On one hand, Green Day played LTL in 2023 so maybe it is too soon to be back. But A7X played 2023 as well and they are playing again.

 

PVRIS Is opening for linkin park in August so I’m guessing they are out based on that but stranger things have happened

 

Also, is Insance Clow Posee on a farewell tour? I noticed they have the (^) on the poster

 

They've been doing limited engagements due to Violent J's health for a few years now, but it might be getting to farewell at this point.

 

would gladly take any of the following: deftones, kittie, sleep token static-x, municipal waste, alestorm, drain, scowl, DEP, glassjaw, wargasm, spiritbox, dragonforce, stabbing westward, dying wish

14 year old me would be losing his mind for the nu-metal D-squad of RA, union underground, & spineshank

 

Shaky Knees and LTL have pretty good lineups. I really hope Riot has a good one as well and not being the weaker of the 3, specially being their 20th anniversary

So far I would be more inclined to go to Shaky Knees, but still holding for Riot

 

only day deftones could play riot would be sunday. also not much cross over between ltl and shaky knees on first glace its like 5 bands

 

I’d also throw in APC, STP, Failure and Glassjaw as possibilities too

 

Deftones is starting to make a lot of sense actually. They'd be a good offset if we did have say, Green Day, and blink both headlining. I could see something like: Green Day - blink-182 - Deftones.

I mean I would go from Atlanta -> Kentucky -> Chicago in a weekend for that kind of pay day.

I also think BMTH is in play. I won't buy into Vampire Weekend until I see with my own eyes that they're not on the Lolla lineup.

 

From Weird Al tour he has a TBA on Friday, so hopefully he is at Riot!

weird al is playing Ravinia Festival at the end of june which would be inside the 90 day window

 

Hence the TBA

 

And the Cure played the United Center in June when they played Riot. Exceptions can be made. I had assumed he would be out when that show first got announced. But between the TBA date and the clue Riot Fest gave, I feel pretty confident that he is playing.

 

based on his tour routing he could also play a 2nd chicagoland show on sept 11th which is also a tba date

 

RIOT NEEDS TO BOOK HINDER

 

I can see the “Kiss a stranger in the pit to Lips of An Angel” Facebook event already.
