At this point I've basically convinced myself NIN is our third headliner.
Exhibit A: Obviously, they were announced as a 2021 headliner and had to drop out. No idea how these negotiations work, but this could mean they'd sign on for 2022 at a slight discount.
Exhibit B: The routing makes perfect sense, assuming they're Friday at Primavera LA. That's their last show west of Chicago, and every show after Riot is east of Chicago.
Exhibit C: They're playing LTL the same weekend as the Cleveland date, meaning there's at least one other 2022 festival date that wasn't officially announced as part of this tour AND they're willing to play shows in different states a day or two apart (they're also playing in Tennessee the day after their Shaky set).
Exhibit D: NIN - MCR - Misfits would be one of the most focused and unique trio of headliners for any fest this size in recent years, it would be a huge whiff for them to miss out on NIN given the above evidence.
Another random one to consider. Duran Duran is at The Hollywood Bowl the weekend before Riot. That would surely be a non expected choice for a headliner. Also Grace Jones and Chvrches are in La the week after Riot.

Are you saying that there'll be a Grace Jones show in LA???

Well thats what this thing says, not scooping anything. Happy Hollywood Bowl 100th season.

Exhibit E: I want it to happen
Edit - Exhibit F: This tweet. Obviously it's just another sarcastic joke tweet from an account known for sarcastic joke tweets, but they still took the time to acknowledge the tweet they're replying to. Lock it up, NIN is our Sunday headliner.
Prima LA daily lineups coming out in a few hours...make or break time for my theory
This is the first message board I've ever been on, the only reason I joined is because I love Bonnaroo and wanted to read and talk about it all year long.

It is looking like this is finally the year I use the ticket I bought in 2020 which pretty much guarantees the third headliner will be somebody I have zero interest in.

They really need to book Judas Priest one of these years, and time is running out. They're active in fests this fall - get it done guys.
i would love it but I feel like Judas Priest has nothing to do with anything Riot Fest books
The only the metal they book is thrash which at least has its roots in the punk scene
I dunno - we can set aside Slipknot because that was a last minute replacement, but they booked Slayer and Rob Zombie multiple times. SOAD once. Other smaller acts.
Agree that thrash has roots in the punk scene, but Priest has deep roots in thrash itself. Dissident Aggressor is basically Priest inventing speed metal.
