Next Announcement

[Lithium05]

I said bullshit firstly But I'm going to wait and see. I think Green Day arent an arena band now and have shown that by selling out the bowl twice. They will do a stadium tour next summer. Anything could happen.

A guy posted on Logan's forum that he heard rumours Logan would be playing. There were certain clues he heard that would suggest they are playing.

The clues were

Worked with Slash. - They worked with Slash on a song call "The Great Unknown" for an forthcoming film

Supported one of the biggest rock bands. - They opened for Bon Jovi last summer

Previous tours have something to do with Blackbirds. - They opened for Alter Bridge on their Blackbird European tour

Their new single is f**king awful

hmmm I don't think I'll bother

[kaosmark2]

On the Smashing Pumpkins front am I right in thinking that John from SOAD is drumming for them now? I'm sure I read that somewhere

[luckysalt]

Nope, he's left bud, I have no idea who the new drummer is from now on though, not sure they've replaced him yet

Not meaning to derail the topic but looking at the comments on that kerrang link makes me want to hide in a small cave for the rest of my life.

Also, my mate keeps on bothering me about whether Hollywood Undead are playing. They're doing AMRing the week before. Anyone know anything so i can shut him up?

There's talk on the Rumour Roundup thread on the official forums that Mastodon are 'TBC'. Something to do with an e-mail from Live Nation regarding their upcoming UK tour in June, which says something about 'check them out at Download'. Seem to be figuring that it must mean this year, as they didn't play in 2008, and surely wouldn't put out any info regarding the '07 appearance.

If this is for real, what an awesome last minute addition! Would also certainly put the cat among the pigeons regarding their Sonisphere appearance too, in the sense that they were an exclusive.

Also noticed Fear Factory confirmed for Bloodstock and also Sonisphere - guessing that kills any hope of them playing Download. What a shame. With Gene Hoglan on the drums that would've been mind-blowing.

Scanned through the Rumour Roundup page of the Download forums last night - appears we have self-confirmations from:

The Black Spiders

Sacred Mother Tongue

Other strong rumours appear to be:

Heaven's Basement (gap in tour dates)

Gama Bomb (supporting Anvil in Dublin on 14th June)

Cynic (something about they mentioned they were looking at playing Download in an interview conducted way back in December '08 - they are, however, touring Europe with Dream Theater after Download).

Certainly would hope for those last two. Will have to check out the others.

Apparently Daughtry are playing too, which would really make my festival

Highlights of my senior high school

High three started, most essential one year, decided when your destiny one year, high three just started, my confidence special foot, I must with emphasis on, high three do not need to insist, this words are not false, high three need to insist truly, I clench teeth insist the semester, the result have also calculated may, basic can in the class first 5, I thought that so long as insisted again is diligent his semester key not to have the question depending on, high three next semester started, all illuminate my idea to develop, but along with college entrance examination's approaching, many schoolmates was anxious, I insteadIt is not anxious to a spot, I am reading every day also, but I always thought that the book does not enter the brain, was only from crosses at present, like this my minute again has not looked like some schoolmates to be such insane rises, the result was average, the period simulated test were many, tests pounds me also to cry several, but my minute has not changed, every day morning to night,but read does not enter the brain, I attempted to change, but I could not change, such college entrance examination has come,wow gold, before testing, me also to think to retake courses, but this idea has vanished immediately, tested firstSaid again, is not anxious does not have the condition, tests first many schoolmates also to read, but I do not want to look, may say I have not taken the college entrance examination, I also did not have at that time want to be too many, is only thinks in the examination place my with every effort line.

Time is running out for my friend. While we are sitting at lunch she casually mentions she and her husband are thinking of starting a family. "We're taking a survey,"she says, half-joking. "Do you think I should have a baby?"

"It will change your life," I say, carefully keeping my tone neutral. "I know,"she says, "no more sleeping in on weekends, no more spontaneous holidays..."World of warcraft Power Leveling

But that's not what I mean at all. I look at my friend, trying to decide what to tell her. I want her to know what she will never learn in childbirth classes. I want to tell her that the physical wounds of child bearing will heal, but becoming a mother will leave her with an emotional wound so raw that she will be vulnerable forever.

I consider warning her that she will never again read a newspaper without thinking: "What if that had been MY child?" That every plane crash, every house fire will haunt her. That when she sees pictures of starving children, she will wonder if anything could be worse than watching your child die. I look at her carefully manicured nails and stylish suit and think that no matter how sophisticated she is,wow power leveling becoming a mother will reduce her to the primitive level of a bear protecting her cub.

I feel I should warn her that no matter how many years she has invested in her career, she will be professionally derailed by motherhood. She might arrange for child care,,but one day she will be going into an important business meeting, and she will think her baby's sweet smell. She will have to use every ounce of discipline to keep from running home, just to make sure her child is all right.

I want my friend to know that every decision will no longer be routine. That a five-year-old boy's desire to go to the men's room rather than the women's at a restaurant will become a major dilemma. The issues of independence and gender identity will be weighed against the prospect that a child molester may be lurking in the lavatory. However decisive she may be at the office, she will second-guess herself constantly as a mother.

Looking at my attractive friend, I want to assure her that eventually she will shed the added weight of pregnancy, but she will never feel the same about herself. That her own life, now so important, will be of less value to her once she has a child. She would give it up in a moment to save her offspring, but will also begin to hope for more years—not to accomplish her own dreams—but to watch her children accomplish theirs.

I want to describe to my friend the exhilaration of seeing your child learn to hit a ball. I want to capture for her the belly laugh of a baby who is touching the soft fur of a dog for the first time. I want her to taste the joy that is so real it hurts.

My friend's look makes me realize that tears have formed in my eyes. "You'll never regret it," I say finally. Then, squeezing my friend's hand, wow gold,I offer a prayer for her and me and all of the mere mortal women who stumble their way into this holiest of callings.
