Download Festival promoter Andy Copping has just officially confirmed that Papa Roach WILL perform at Download Festival 2013, following Stereoboard's earlier report that the band had self-confirmed for the Donington Park weekender.
OK @jacobyshaddix does it again! That man just cannot keep quiet! JACOBY!!! Papa Roach are playing #DL2013 on the main stage Friday
Frontman Jacoby Shaddix leaked the band’s appearance at the 2013 festival in a brief exchange with Essex electro-punk outfit Hounds on his Facebook page.
Shaddix and Hounds, who toured together as part of Stone Sour’s UK tour in December last year, shared a few comments on the band’s Facebook page before a fan asked when they’d be back in the UK, to which Shaddix simply replied, “DOWNLOAD”. You can see the Facebook announcement, here.
Papa Roach made it no secret during their last UK appearances that they intended to come back in 2013, however, Download festival bosses may be wishing they’d have kept that secret just a little longer.
