[Salt_On_Everything]

to be fair, yeah, it's even worse than last years and that wasn't exactly great! must admit id f**king LOVE to see Radiohead (never have), but other than that it's mainly an indie fest, they have CLEARLY dispensed with the metal day, and yep, i can see why! too much competition.

Made me glad I had decided not to go again.Was bricking it that they may annouce AC/DC,even though it was always unlikely.

[Mamba]

One of my guesses/hopes is Torche. Playing Hellfest the following week and loads of other European dates lined up after that but no UK dates as yet.

[Sparticus]

The lineup's good as it is, would love to see weezer get added though. Really doubt they fit in with the reading/ leeds demographic anymore.

[MetalDave]

From the rumours and my own personal greed, im hoping/praying for something like:

1)Megadeth

2)Blind Guardian

3)Staind

4)Static-X

5)God Forbid

6)Alexisonfire

7)The All American Rejects

8)In Flames

9)Children of Bodom

10)Slayer

11)Gallows

12)Deftones

Anything along these lines would be simply awesome, and would require a change of underwear.

And a few killer metal bands to round it up - not sure who I have in mind but I'm sure I'll be in a state of shock as I was with Lawnmower Deth if its that good!

I was looking on the forum on the Download website and some said they had got a email from live nation saying that The Answer and Fightstar are playing download this year

[luckysalt]

I didn't get that email, but you're confirming it yeah?

OK cool

I just got an email from livenation confirming Static-X are playing Download, we knew anyway, but if live nation are sending an email out, it says exclusive offer for Download ticket holders, buy in advance Static-X tickets if you miss them playing at Download or fall in love with them there

Bit mad if you buying the ticket now, how will you fall in love with them there, but yeah

So im guessing these three are being confirmed tonight, being Fightstar, The Answer and Static-X, looks like they'll be the biggest names in tonights announcement too

[dacbo]

i can screen shot if you like. its not very interesting to be honest. bit of a random selection of bands to advertise as well.

[luckysalt]

I have seen it on the Download forum but thought it might not be legit as I myself haven't had the email but I had the Static X email, which was a bit weird

[Salt_On_Everything]

oh man, i'm so tired after work tioday and up again at 5.30am tomorrow, but i'll still stay up for this!

[Lithium05]

Not bad!

Stone Gods, The Answer, Fightstar and Go:Audio are all pretty watchable. Sevendust were ok supporiting BSC in December... not bad at all.

Edit: Still no Less Than Jake, doesn't look good
