2009 Rumours

[-pogo-]

Where's my bands maaaan?

[bekimo]

I'm sure those bands (Korn, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Marylin Manson) will apeal to a lot of the audience, but to me those bands represent what was a very dry period for music, and whilst I wouldn't mind say one of those headlining, I think 3 of those headlining would be a very negative, backwards statement.

[Sparticus]

provided no theatrics from mr durst i reckon limp bizkit could still go down well, they're in no way relevant but everyone knows the tunes (it would be hard not to, kerrang still has them on heavy rotation), would be good in a bouncy way, same as manson was when i saw him at leeds few years back, no new songs just hit after hit and it was brilliant lol.

and i must be the only one who thought that "imagine accepting the truth" song was pretty damn good lol, didn't get the ep when it came out though.

[zahidf]

Why get limp bizkit again after they screwed over the festival in their first year by pulling out for some bullshit excuse?

Anybody else worried about the lack of information we've been recieving as of late?

Makes me think Download organisers have taken a massive risk and its gone tits up

Don't know if they've already been mentioned, but Juliette And The Licks and The Gaslight Anthem are both playing Rock Am Ring in June, so they are quite likely for Download too.

[MetalDave]

I reckon we'll either get an announcement tonight, or in a few days an announcement saying there's going to be an announcement for next week. If that makes sense.

Crystal clear!

I just hope your right!! Seems they have been holding the cards very close to their chests this year! quite impressive really!

[Shinny]

Shin is happy... NFG now Strong Rumour

I'm going and so far they are the only rumoured band I like (maybe "like" is understating my devotion to them... but everyone knows that anyway)

[spwan-of-the-devil]

I would guess that only one of those bands you mentioned would "headline"! Of course, I suppose it all depends on who else confirms, if indeed those four all do confirm.

For me personally, those four bands totally remind me of great times that I was having back in the day!! Limp Bizkit's "Rollin" makes me smile everytime!!!

There is going to be such an amazing annoucement that the organizers must be bursting at the seams to annouce it this year.

I HOPE!

Juliette & The Licks are no longer togehter, its just Juliette Lewis apparently :S (my girlfriend is their number 1 fan so trust me on this!!). The new bands going to be called Juliette and the new romantics :S But im sure they'll be just the same.

Oh NIN I'm pretty much ruiling out now, they are playing an American festival on the 13th June. I don't think they'd fly straight out to Uk for Download.

I wonder would Gogol Bordello get booked at Download?

They're doing European festivals around the same time

[MetalDave]

I still think some of the bands in that American Festival could play at Download. I'd be really happy if Yeah Yeah Yeahs played

[MetalDave]

And they're playing Rock AM Ring the week before download

hmmm

chances???

saw Juilette & The Licks at V in 2007 and they were wicked

[luckysalt]

Surely theres a chance of Juilette Lewis at Download if shes in Europe at the time?

Im not so hopeful on Yeah Yeah Yeahs though bud, I hope they don't play Reading again, would be nice if V tried to book them, obviously for me!

They booked Sonic Youth before, who by the way have said they hope to play a couple of UK festivals this year...

[MetalDave]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah no way! Down are at that American Festival too
