hahninator Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 According to festivalisten, Linkin Park could be announced as headliners of Hurricane and Southside 2017 tomorrow. The festivals take place between June 23rd and June 25th, 2017. Hurricane is in Scheeßel, Germany and Southside is in Tuttlingen, Germany. This would be the band's first appearance at these festivals. In the festival teaser video from Hurricane, two guys are walking in the park...roughly translated as: "Dude, it looks really great out here" followed by the other guy saying "The special thing about this park is that it links the two districts." (hinting at a Linkin Park joke) A similar tease was just done for Green Day by the festivals. This should be the first confirmation of the band's upcoming world tour in 2017. These promoters also book bands for NorthSide in Aarhus, Denmark and Bravalla in Norrkoping, Sweden, so those festivals are a possibility as well. Stay tuned for more news tomorrow! EDIT: Confirmed by Southside and the band! Linkin Park will be headlining Hurricane and Southside 2017! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igussek Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I hope this is true. Let's begin announcements time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michalangelo Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 So it began...looking forward to the next years announcements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark403 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 NovaRock also announces the next batch of bands tomorrow for their line up. There could be LP as their 3rd headliner (beside Green Day and SOAD). At least I'm hoping for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhinestonePT Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Those festivals are both taking place 23rd - 25th June? We also got Download Festival Spain in Madrid on the 23rd and 24th (SOAD as headliner on a day). Really hope for a show in Spain (it's been 6 years) or Portugal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hope for a show in Spain (it's been 6 years) or Portugal SOAD plays on 23rd, and i doubt that LP would play as a support act for them. If they play in Madrid, they'll be a headliner on 24th.

Fingers crossed. Edited October 26, 2016 by Capacity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazzy Chazz Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 The major Portuguese festivals are in July so... Can happen. Assuming this will be an European festival tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geki Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Very excited. Always my favorite part of any album cycle, the touring. I love when the first tour dates are announced, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coizu Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Apparently it is confirmed. Southside posted a video of the new bands but I cant watch it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickLPL Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I bet they'll have at least 10 shows in Germany this tour hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzo23 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I bet they'll have at least 10 shows in Germany this tour hahaha I don't think so! No ticket alert for any solo shows til now at eventim.de.... It could only be a festival summer tour...~10 shows and then a fall or winter european tour with more LP shows in Germany.

Well, If they go on tour in fall or winter, they could easily offer like 12 Shows or so. The last tour with 9 shows was completely sold out.

LPsMart Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 does that mean no Rock im Park or Rock am Ring w/ LP this year? :'( I was expecting that with them touring in Europe in June.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geki Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Been confirmed on LP's social media now. Pretty awesome. Still in the studio, though, they say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzo23 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Now we need to talk about the festivals which are between NovaRock and HU/SS....there are f. e. Graspop in Belgium, Hellfest in France, Sonar Festival in Barcelona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graspop in Belgium, Hellfest in France, Sonar Festival in Barcelona LP might do some shows on their own, too. In Europe, Linkin Park is so big that they can sell out venues on their own, several times per tour. I think they might do that with a few shows, because I think this will become a European promo tour like they have done the past couple cycles. Hellfest will probably have LP as well.

Yeah I can say that this was the best concert ever of LP where I attened and I saw them 15times^^ Although the show started with WID piano intro which was the weakest intro all time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hahninator Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 Hurricane 23 Green Day 24 Blink 182 25 Southside 23 24 Green Day 25 Blink 182 I don't know what the exact structure is for the lineup at these festivals. Will LP headline over Blink 182? Or will they headline their own day? LP could play Southside on 23rd, Hurricane on 25th, but it seems most likely they headline on the 24th at Hurricane and at Southside on the 25th, with Blink 182 as direct support.

marzo23 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I think that Casper will be the third headliner aside LP and Green Day. Blink 182 is only in the second line of the flyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
