[Spengs Muck]

theyve been announced for ages dude, they were one of the first bands out!

[wilcox]

Is it just me, or is there a lack of decent pop punk/pop rock bands this year? Last year we had Simple Plan, Ash, The Subways, Jimmy Eat World, Zebrahead and probably some others that are slipping my mind (excluded Offspring cos they were headliners)

Was hoping for at least one of LTJ, NFG, BFS, RBF or AAR for a bit of variety (weird those bands are all abreviated with 3 letters!)... Youmeatsix and Go:audio don't really cut it, Billy Talent are cool though!

[Naked_Jesus]

I know, it's been a running joke on here since the first announcement as prior to the official announcement they were the only bands who ended up announced that weren't down as TBC on efestivals

Backyard Babies, Limp Bizkit, Lacuna Coil and Opeth all have potential clashes with one another and they are four abnds I realy want to see.

Maybe its because that sort of stuff is radio friendly tripe that wouldnt sound out of place next to the Backstreet Boys?

[thegremlin_1999]

Wow. Well that's me convinced. No longer will I listen to any of these bands as they clearly aren't teh metulz - and are therefore the equivalent of the backstreet boys . You have truely opened my eyes and I bow to your maturity and superior musical preferences... Dickhead.

Sure you wouldn't prefer to be just at Bloodstock for fear of an NSync headlining slot?! What a c*nt.

Edit: Actually I'm not done yet... Which of the bands I mentioned, with the possible exception of AAR are "Radio Friendly" I can honestly say I've never heard LTJ on the radio, NFG might have got some airtime off of their first 2 albums, RBF may have got Sell Out played around 10 years ago and BFS have had intermitant commercial success.

Honestly. What a dick (wonder if Shinny will react to you putting down NFG!)

[Spengs Muck]

also agree with above; id have liked some of the sunshine friendly bands as well.

Little bit of pop punk never hurt anybody; Download should do a stage like the lock up at reading just for a bit of diversity

sure the metal kids would cry.....but its a sacrifice im willing to take.

[dan666]

Friday looks f**king sweet. Such a sweet lineup.

Quite gutted that DevilDriver are not in a tent on Sat as there are so good under cover.

[the_mars_volta]

The Marilyn Manson/Chris Cornell clash is terrible for me, really wanted to see both. Cornell should've been on the main stage

hopefully Cornell will bring Timbaland with him!

.......

i wanted to see him, but his solo stuff is tripe and apparently he doesnt do much ofthe audioslave/soundgarden stuff anymore

[mpl3wis]

Lots of problematic areas on the splits but at least there are still other bands to be announced. Pray they sort it out. The pick of the crap for me is the potential ZZ Top/Buckcherry clash.

[-pogo-]

why? theres only one band to be seen there

[Spiral_Low]

If Lacuna Coil clash at all with Korn I will be very pissed off.

The Static X clash is also very annoying.

[LethalLegacy]

Plenty of clashes for me:

Faith No More/Motley Crue/Meshuggah

Korn/Opeth/Loaded

Backyard Babies potentially clash with Korn

Whitesnake/Therapy?

ZZ Top or Dream Theater/Clutch

Journey/Volbeat or Karma To Burn

Tesla/God Forbid

Only good clashes are Voivod/Limp Bizkit

Lawnmower Deth/Pendulum

The Answer/Dragonforce

Still more bands to be announced yet, could yet get shaken up a bit more.

[alex89]

I'm lucky no clashes so far
