Rumour Thread

[r0w]

The Cult & Masters Of Reality have just announced a fest in holland in June. Both are certs for Download i reckon. Touring partners atm, Andy Copping loves The Cult and tried to book them last year but lost out to Soni, and i doubt they'l play soni 2 years running plus Masters Of Reality were on the 2008 bill for Download but had to pull out due to ill health. http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=150377

Love the cult, hope they play

Ive just been reading over AC's tweets for the past couple of months, see if he gave anything away, and I really doubt he's booked Soundgarden his exact tweet when asked about them and the interest is high in their reformation he said

''What? Poor reviews and only 2,000 copies sold, isn't exactly a lot of interest''

So from that he won't be booking them as a headliner, depends if they'd take further down the bill.

But he talks SOOO much about Rob Zombie, Im really gunna be shocked if he hasn't got him, says he's been negotating with him to play Download for the past 4 years. I can't imagine Sonisphere getting him over Download if thats the case.

Ah cool, good find. its on the main site now. might check out Nova Rock then, great festival! where dya reckon Soundgarden & Tool will end up this year Lucky?....if at all that is

[luckysalt]

The only choice left for Tool id say is download, or if ozzy does some sort of ozzfest again. Otherwise i reckon they'll just do 2 or 3 uk dates. In terms of European dates, reckon they'll do a few fests. Soundgarden i havent got a clue yet as they havent been very forthcoming with plans.

Interestingly. It looks like Van Halen 2011 plans are back on. Word is recording the album starts in Jan, then plans for touring starts once the albums ready. So maybe, they could be part of download, although hard rock calling seems more suitable.

[luckysalt]

Download forums are reporting that Papa Roach said they're playing Download next year at a signing whilst on the TOC tour.

Distrubed said they're still in talks to do European festivals, nothings set in stone.

Updated first post

God I hope Pendulum are on the second stage while I'm watching SOAD.

And I completely missed Opeth getting added as a rumour.... f**k that would be awesome.

No love for the Pearl Jam rumour despite Andy C confirming they'd been asked & Vedder tweeting they'd be doing festivals as part of their 20th anniversary?

[luckysalt]

Van Halen plans were never off - it's just download twittered they weren't playing.

[luckysalt]

First post updated

Im leaving Pearl Jam off the rumours as I think that the 20 year festival is their own USA festival that they are playing and deciding the full line up.

If I see any mention of European shows, they get on.

Iggy and the stooges been added to IOW. Playing saturday 3rd down main stage. Hope they play download too but not in that high a slot.

Buckcherry looking to play.

http://www.rockaaa.com/news/buckcherry-member-meets-fans-member-1511

Buckcherry are aiming to appear at next year’s Download festival amid a hectic summer season in support of new album All Night Long.

Todd says: “I think we’re coming to Download although I don’t think it has been confirmed yet. There is talk of a lot of other festivals and in between them we plan to be doing shows.

“You always want an album to be bigger and sell more, but it’s a slow and steady process for us. We’re happy with where we debuted. We’ll be touring it all next year then we’ll probably put out another record in 2012.”

[luckysalt]

Not to my knowledge they haven't, they always seem to play at around Download time at other fests but never ever get booked for Download, The Hives haven't played for a long time too, I haven't seen them since 2005 I think, Really hope they both get booked.
