metallimuse Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 If Download change their announce date due to Knebworth announcing it's inseption then that's a clear sign of fear that Knebworth is coming for them. It's war motherf**kers! I got around £150 on Knebworth baby!Who wants some odds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bekimo Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I've heard Tuesday, but I think it might well be an announcement on Kerrap radio at 7pm and on the Download website shortly after, and then press releases for Tuesday. Sonisphere is announced early on Monday I believe. It's defo two days, with Metallica and Lincoln Pork as the headliners. I don't know which is playing what day. I have a feeling that Sonisphere might be a no-camping fest, because I can't remember camping happening at Knebworth. But I could be wrong about that.

TheSeventhOne Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 right, a bit of concrete at last...... It's called Sonisphere and is happening on August 1/2.

darrenbha Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 It looks very tempting. Be interesting to see if its just a single stage event. And how many bands each day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t8yman Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 I'm there, I can do 1/2 august. any news on the NIN rumours for this neil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenbha Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 NIN would make it a superb line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mars_volta Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 That line up + no camping = total FAIL! Don't think I'll go unless someone like NIN is announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) I'm presuming it will be but is it mostly thought that Linkin Park will headline the sat and Metallica the Sunday, if so maybe saturday linkin park nin ? pendulum enter shikari sunday metallica machinehead alice in chains lamb of god mastodon Edited February 7, 2009 by gazza_20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiral_Low Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 I think they'd sort some camping for it, if they didn't they'd suffer for it. Atany rate i'd stay ina hotel nearby or something, but alot of people wouldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenbha Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 I think slipknot and manson being pretty much confirmed for download they are very unlikely to play this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackthebassist Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 can't wait for monday my dream would be Metallica, Alice and NIN all on the same day... and that they sell day tickets.... fingers crossed for some other good surprises in the line up as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenbha Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Not sure who's promoting it. Wondered at one time if it was that mega corporate fest neil referred to last year but not so sure now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) this is nice and near to my mum's house, so hopefully I can go, or at least work it and see a few bands inbetween without spending a fortune on hotel/travel.

she bangs the drums Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 I've booked in the hotel nearest to Knebworth the Novotel, its available at £55 per night at the moment with no payment until the day and you can cancel without charge until the day before you are due to stay so if the line up is sh1t hot and there is no camping I've got the option to attend for as little as possible and without the hassle of traveeling too far to a hotel. http://www.novotel.com/gb/hotel-0992-novot...age/index.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
