They've already had their price increase.

It was pretty awful when the wheels on the trolley fell off just past the car park, and then we had to trek all the way to yellow carrying everything in the pouring rain and wind.... 3 hours from car park to campsite!
-
I've heard about this walk, can it be that bad?!
-
They're mainstage Sunday - Andy Copping has confirmed that much. Not sure what slot though.
-
More than happy. Haven't seen any of them live yet somehow. Slipknot I've been a fan of for ages and really wanted to see them for a long time but it didn't work out. Both Maiden and Rammstein I've listened to bits over the years, but started listening to a lot more recently, and really can't wait to see them live.
I think the big thing for me is that all 3 tend to put on big shows with pyro and what not so I'm really looking forward to that.

Me and a mate got our tickets pretty much as soon as they went on sale on the early bird. Somehow I haven't yet caught any of the headliners live previously so I'm really looking forward to it.

but lamb of god are the worst band I've ever seen

Top 3:
Metallica - I never thought otherwise being a lifelong fan, but the set was incredible and the lighting/pyro rig for One was amazing. We managed to get right down near the front and the atmosphere was amazing, especially after chatting to everyone around us during the hour break after Biffy.
Slash and Myles - been listening to Guns and Roses since Appetite, like a bit of Velvet Revolver, love Slash's Snakepit and Alter Bridge, so it was kind of a perfect booking for me. And the set list was incredible - again we got right down near the front and just enjoyed it.
Sabbath - I don't listen to Sabbath ordinarily, and had no idea if Ozzy could perform well but I had to see them, because, well it's Sabbath! And boy did they do the business - our whole group got really into it and everyone was amazed by how well they can still perform.
Biggest surprises of the weekend:
Terrorvision - been listening to them since How To Make Friend And Influence people and couldn't believe how good they were live. Sure, he's not the best singer, but he's a hell of a front man!
Nightwish - never bothered listening to them before, but their set just blew me away.
Kyuss - despite how long they've been around, I'd never really given them a go. Since I do like a bit of sleazy stoner rock every now and then, I thought they were perfect on Sunday in the sun with a few beers! Since I got back home, I can't stop listening to them!
Turkey of the weekend:
Fear Factory - the sound was awful, and the guy just cannot sing live. Sure he can growl well enough, but on the cleans it was just terrible which was a real shame as I was looking forward to them.
Actually, with the exception of Fear Factory, I didn't see a bad band all weekend, and it was nice to see Breed 77 on the acoustic stage having seen them twice live before doing their normal stuff - I dragged a few of our crowd to watch them and they absolutely loved it.
-
It was my first festival (and one of my mates that came too) and we had a ball. Single handedly the best experience in my 33 years on this planet so far. Yes the weather was crap, the mud was annoying, the delay opening the arena on Friday a little frustrating (especially as I was looking forward to Rise to Remain and Cancer Bats) but other than that it was amazing.
And as far as Sundays go, I wish every Sunday was a good as that one. Great weather, great bands, great people, and we had an awesome spot for main stage all day.
Suffice to say, I'll be going again next year!
-
Black Label Society v Shadows Fall for me. But I've wanted to see BLS for a long long time, so I guess they win.
-
I must admit, having never been before, I was expecting much worse than that so its a pleasant surprise.
-
Breed 77 and Shadows Fall are great additions I reckon.
-
I'm wondering if they'll be bringing Jason over with them, and also play some Kill 'Em All stuff with MegaDave on guitar.
-
Got a feeling ministry will headline one night in the 3rd stage (tent).dont think any of the 3 headline acts announced yet?
-
Offspring, Evanescence, Biohazard, Shinedown, Cancer Bats & Black Veil Brides will be the 6 bands announced soon I think.
-
Its already up on the official Download forum: Killswitch, NOFX, Black Veil Brides, Nightwish, Shinedown confirmed
-
Every Time I Die would be an awesome addition to the line up. Though I really do hope As I Lay Dying haven't cancelled all of their tour.
Rammstein clash with Limp Bizkit.

I'm sure Andy Copping stated that Bizkit will finish 30 mins before Rammstein finish. By the time you manage to get through the crowd, you might get 10 or 15 minutes of Rammstein.
