Considering how much lars"Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck"ulrich went on about camping on that promo video, it'd be a bit of an anticlimax if they didn't have it

[crosswillcastyourshadow]

Also wonder what kind of capaticy it might be?

Robbie W was 120,000 each night or something silly. Can only see this being about half that though.

[darrenbha]

Knebworth capacity for robbie

And oasis was 125000 for each night. Will be very interesting to know the format for this

[jackthebassist]

can't get on the sonisphere website now to carry on guessing with names...

i guess they are getting it ready for the launch

Robbie was wayyyy too packed. Too many people in there. Theres a main arena area at Knebworth for the big events, but for Wild in the Country I think they shifted some of it around.... reducing the capaticy to around 30,000.

[crosswillcastyourshadow]

yeah, I had trouble getting on.

I just tried it in a few differnt browsers & waited for a bit & it came back on.

I'm leaving it on the countdown page now, I doubt it'll change when it gets to 0 though

Lars in the video!

''We're honoured to be part of amazing history of Knebworth.Only a small group have actually played there.Deep Purple,Led Zeppelin,Oasis,Robbie Williams...that's an amazing list right there.''

Also he mentions a festival by definition is about ''groups of people coming together and different styles of music which they don't emerse themselves in...'' could there be indie bands there?Is the line up going to include different genre's we haven't thought about?

[darrenbha]

Don't think there will be huge genre clashes but an interesting idea

I too would love to see a festival with that kind of diversity. Just not sure this will be the one

I've not been able to get on either in the last 30 mins so I guess its the website and not your laptop!

I'm patiently waiting watching Metallica at Rock AM Ring last summer on MTV2.
