Soundwave have 'Got' Linkin Park, with Blink 182

So the Soundwave festival rumors are still lurking around with Triple M (a reliable Australian radio station) reporting that Soundwave have 'Got' Linkin Park along with 'healthy' talks of Blink 182 on the bill.

Triple M were the ones that spread the rumor of the 2010 December tour which turned out to be correct. What do you guys think?

Yeah I'm kinda up and down about it to. Of course I'm stoked that the guys are coming out, hell some countries don't see the band for years. But there are a quite a few pros and cons with the cons outweighing the pros.

Pro:
Blink 182 with a chance of Offspring too.
Massive atmosphere.
Normally awesome hot weather, perfect for Aussie music festivals.

Cons:
Festival sets
Massive crowds (some of which won't take to LP as well as some may think)
Hard to get tickets.
Limited production (so their big video screens and everything would be hard to bring in and use)
Big ticket prices.
Meet and greet and watch show from KMS away from the stage or be up close missing M&G

With me (and a couple of other fans) wanting to go to every Australian show, it wouldn't be as rewarding for us and any other fan of it was Soundwave festival gigs.

How was a Festival Set a bad thing this year haha. If they are headlining I don't think there will be cuts in the production, but you are probably right about everything else.
I heard about people getting into front section with their M&G on festivals this summer, I don't know if that's officially but I guess you just have to act bossy and they just waved the people through because it was some laminate and didn't pay much attention.

kinda sneaky but it works - if you act casual with a laminate or a pass you can pretty much do anything you like. "I do this all the time guys, jeez"

If that's the case, do the guys know if the band are planning on doing a EU/UK tour towards the end of the year again?

They'll do a Euro tour after the Civic Tour sometimes in fall, we just don't know when exactly yet.

Yes, exactly this. Excited that LP will be coming down to Australia again but I would prefer to see them play their own headlining show rather then at a music festival. If these rumours are true, just wondering if there is any chance they will play some arena shows as well?

I would imagine they would do at least 1 sideshow at the major cities. Hopefully at a really kick ass small venue. Love to see them at the enmore or metro but I doubt they would go that small.

Linkin Park + Blink-182 = fucking awesome show. I would love if I went to a show with both of them, since they are my favorite bands. I went to a Blink-182 show last year and they can still rock out the place!

Yeahhh buddy! wink.gif

Totally agree with Pez re: the band coming to Australia and doing festival-only shows. I really want to hear LIVING THINGS live with some of the older stuff thrown in, not a best of set which usually needs to be the case for festival sets. And fully agree re: tossing up between front of stage or M&G and watching from a distance. Plus, front of stage at a festival usually means spending an entire day with d*ckheads in the mosh and watching the awful bands that precede the headliner.

I for one couldn't care less about Blink being on the line-up. I used to absolutely love them until I saw them live. After that one show, I have never listened to a CD of theirs again. It was probably the second worst live show I have ever seen (and I've been to a lot). People were walking out in droves before the band even finished. I've only ever been to one other show that impacted my taste for a band that significantly.
