No. They won't sell out for a few months.

If this is real, where the hell are Evanescence?! Sonisphere?

No offence, but I couldn't care less! They can play somewhere I'm not going hopefully!

[kaosmark2]

Fuck Evanescence, it's all about this:

That's a relief.  I can get a bit more excited now.  Thanks!

Apart from all the main stage subs, I'm REALLY disappointed with this announcement. The 'smaller' bands are mostly the same crap that plays every year. I also can't get my head around the decision to have Tenacious D clashing with Metallica.

Also disappointed that DevilDriver are back AGAIN when a newly reformed Coal Chamber would've been much more exciting.

[thejimbola]

I would be very surprised if Tenacious D clash with Metallica!

There's no guarantee that the bands shown there as 2nd stage headliners are.

[t8yman]

I would say that the poster appears pretty well balanced as it is, would be surprised if MH aren't headlining the 2nd on Friday, TD the sat and ym@6 the sun tbh.

I'm sure the bands will be confirming the actual dates over the next few days to clear up any confusion.

Bands don't usually get their logo/font on the poster unless they are headliners or subs iirc

Especially seeing as they are "below the line" on the poster

Got a source?


I agree it seems unlikely.

[theramm]

This is a fantastic announcement for me, couldn't be happier. Loving Biffy into Metallica, Soundgarden under Sabbath (ready to step up in case) & hope Machine Head end up headlining 2nd on Friday. Tremendous stuff

Top 3 on main, top 2 on second stage and third stage headliners all get their logos on the poster.

How do you know this?

They must be subbing on 2nd then?

[TYLER_4]

tenacious d will be 3rd down on main, hence the logo and the fact you me at six have confirmed they are 2nd stage headliners and there was only one 2nd stage headliner announced tonight. hope that clears that up.
