bekimo Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 I am actually only going to Sonisphere for Slipknot! The big 4 thing is all a bit blah for me. I'm intrigued to see Metallica as I haven't seen them yet (I think I may be the only person on the planet that hasn't though) But I fell asleep during Megadeth last year (seriously) and I saw the other two last year and was a bit "meh" with them. Uber happy with the addition of Limp Bizkit to the Sunday lineup though. I like to think Soni made the Sunday happen just for me. I am a happy bunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go_Go_Tonymon Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 From Thrash Hits on Twatter: Download rumour mill continues: Tool = OUT. Young-and-old-dual-headliners-(kinda)-with-a-classic-rock-feel = IN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bekimo Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Dual headliners makes me think tis two smaller bands as opposed to one big one! One young band, one new band, both have a classic rock feel to them. That help dudeman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred_flintstone Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Van Halen/Nickelback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 can't see it being van halen as how andy rates them they would defo have their own announcement. nickelback velvet revolver to be announced later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pryce Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 i see it being Nickleback/Soundgarden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bekimo Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Nickelback being the young (kinda) one and def leppard being the old one possibly?? What about QOTSA? I heard a bit about them recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtourette Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Weren't Thrash Hits the ones who started the TOOL runour out of the blue anyway? Now they've ditched that and started another one I'm not so inclined to believe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0w Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 QOTSA is not a bad suggestion but i have a feeling it prob wont be them....i reckon Copping would bump them up and give them their own headlining slot tbh. I think its gona be 2 bands who people think arnt big enough to headline ie 2 bands who normally sub headline fests.....so i am sticking with The Scorpions....and 1 other. Maybe QOTSA, Velvet Revolver....not sure how big Copping views Soundgarden to be? Or did he rule them out last week...think he did actually?

pryce Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 yeah actually to be honest.... 'newish oldish bands' kinda covers alot of bands its like saying the headliners will be heavy/lightish rockish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 QOTSA have just announced London date three weeks before Download, can't see them playing now seems too much of a gap. But you never know And whats with the new efests rumours, Rock Sugar as a rumour, even though AC has already said he's booked them Steel Pathner as a STRONG rumour even though AC has confirmed repeatedly that they won't be playing this year and The Darkness, well a lot of people expected them to have been booked for this year, I just hope they don't get a big slot, Id be gutted.

Spengs Muck Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Not likeing the sound of this, never understood 'dual headliners' anyway, someone HAS to play last, they ARE the headliner. You can stroke someones ego as much as you want telling them they're a dual headliner, but they are just a sub with extra ass kissing.

the_mars_volta Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Def Leppard and The Darkness makes quite good sense, would create a 'classic rock day' plus those bands are friends and have toured together in the past (I think). Although Def Leppard is too recent of a headliner :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 QOTSA posted on their facebook page 'you guys over there across the pond, we're comin after you too. crapton more dates announced monday. you'll get yours.' Good news regardless, definitely going to at least one show, but similar time to the Download announcement? Seems quite likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 QOTSA would be an absolutely amazing headliner for me, I know many disagree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
