Hard Rock Calling becomes Calling Festival at Clapham Common

[Browno01]

First announcement tomorrow at 8am.

[roadrunner66]

I'm betting on Aerosmith for tomorrow.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Bruce Springsteen bringing the new tour to Calling festival too.

£5 down on Sir Paul

[the wonderwhy]

Well this is what I thought Black Sabbath were going to do.

If its Sir Paul and Aerosmith where the fuck is Ozzy going to end up?

[dentalplan]

Bang Face probably.

[stylishkids]

Is it even a 2 day festival this year? On their twitter page it only mentions Saturday 28th...

[johnl]

Aerosmith it is!

[the wonderwhy]

Its definitely two days, Saturday & Sunday

Now I'd put my money on either Springsteen or McCartney for Sunday. Rumour is that Springsteen is on the verge of announcing another European tour this summer.

[dentalplan]

Springsteen has apparently got a show at Hamburg's stadium on July 6, but playing the same event three times in a row would be overkill wouldn't it? Regardless of venue change. I'll stick with Macca.

[roadrunner66]

Maybe... If there's a tour there's a concert in London for sure, and a Springsteen concert is always a popular event. That said, does it matter that the concert takes place under the same festival again (not even the same place)? Calling festival doesn't need to be afraid of repeating themselves, they're not like other festivals and they're located in London.

Macca is a fair shot. Live Nation said to the Clapham Common council they were trying to get him as well as Neil Young and Aerosmith.

This is what I'm thinking... Neil Young was lost to BST Hyde Park. A few months ago I heard that Macca was in talks about concerts in Europe for the summer, however, haven't heard any confirmation so far makes me think that he might have pulled out. Springsteen in meantime announces a new album and tour...

A one-off Macca show in London is also possible though...

[the wonderwhy]

Black Sabbath are in Germany during Glasto.

I think live Nation still have events left on their licence at Finsbury Park, so they could do that

[edgar]

Aerosmith, Joe Bonamassa and Thunder looks good to me so far. Count me in.

[roadrunner66]

We should take this one into account as well:

Oh Clapton is such a dildo.

Probably worse than McCartney

Kiss just posted this on their Twitter, could anyone else see them headlining the Sunday?

[dentalplan]

Yep. Or even a tour, I suppose.

Not sure why they'd advertise it with American times though. Why would Americans care about them doing British shows?

[49Lawson]

I know Planet Rock Radio confirmed them doing a tour earlier this year, I guess this is just gonna be confirmation of the dates/venues. I just think they'd suit Headlining a festival like this so it wouldn't surprise me

I've just noticed, it's an American flag as well, guessing they're announcing US dates as well

Sheffield arena have an arena tour announcement scheduled tomorrow

[49Lawson]

Def Leppard have an announcement at the same time as Kiss, and they've just both posted a photo of the same venue as the Kiss announcement, guess they're touring together.

Still think we might see at least one of them headlining Calling Festival

Kiss and def leppard joint US tour starts June 23rd

Interesting that they ditched the Olympic site after just one year.
