Don't think it's got to that level in Europe.

I wouldn't know about that BUT having Jagermeister as your tour sponsor means they have faith you can sell some tickets. Its very rare that you see a band at the level Ghost is at have a major sponsor like that.

Forget the question about who headlines, what the fuck are these two bands even doing on the same tour?!?

Easy. The Jagermeister tour is ALL about picking whichever smaller bands are currently selling well on the live circuit with the readers of Kerrang and Metal Hammer, regardless of whether they fit together or not.

Because the ticket price is only £5 they know they'll get fans of each band turn up just for their band (as I will be doing for Gojira), so the coherence of the bill doesn't matter.
