[r0w]

How realistic is that? Here's hoping, the weather would have to be scorchio to enjoy it fully though.

[5co77ie]

I'm really starting to think it's looking very realistic.

agreed. Would see Rob Zombie tho in the hope he would play some White Zombie Stuff. they had some great songs! Metallica are defently not going to be there tho according to the inside source i know & even the guy doing all the rumours on the Download Forums who initially was adament that Metallica were playing has now said that he's recently recieved information that they are defently not playing anymore. I think the only people clinging onto the Metallica rumour now are the die hard fans who refuse to let go!

[Old Mosher]

a girlfriends cousin's brother's dad that they are.

[thegremlin_1999]

Well i know they are going to play from a girlfriends cousin's brother's dad that they are.

[Chinese Democracy]

looking likely for 30 seconds to mars and lamb of god after rock am ring announcement

[LethalLegacy]

I'm going to guess at:

Van Halen

30 Seconds To Mars

Mastodon

Lamb of God

Alice In Chains

as Mastodon playing Sweden Rock as well.

[jordanuk90]

I hope Van Halen don't play be a waste of a headliner

[Budweiser]

Id be happy with 30 Seconds.

Lamb of god .. Meh IMO.

[r0w]

am i seeing that correctly.

Mastodon would be epic.

Think 'We Are The Fallen' will be playing at Download too. Download has been tweetering about them today raving about them

heres the lowdown on them from Ticketmaster

This new band is comprised of the original members of multiplatinum trailblazing band Evanescence, guitarists Ben Moody and John LeCompt along with drummer Rocky Gray, with enigmatic American Idol finalist Carly Smithson powering the vocal reins of the new group. Respected touring and studio bassist Marty OBrien (Disturbed and Static-X, among others) rounds out the iconic fivesome.

i think Dizzee Rascaal will play Download. He's that kind of crossover surprise act that AC announces every year. Can really see that happening and especially as he seems to have played every other UK festival apart from Download aswel

well Andy Copping booked Lethal Bizzle in 2008 and id say he's less crossover than Dizzee Rascaal, plus Andy makes out Lethal Bizzle was a huge success and he wudnt hesitate to do it again! I really think Dizzee will be there this year

[luckysalt]

I don't think Dizzee will play, I know he's playing Rock AM Ring, but they have loads of acts who wouldn't get booked at DL.

He's massive at the moment, I think he's gunna get a really big slot at Reading this year
