Also Strictly Sonisphere, a site that says it for the fans by the fans have posted this Twitter comment which could not be less helpful for the fans!

It's so hard knowing the Sonisphere Festival announcement but not being allowed to tell you guys. Hashtag #notontwitter

Strictly constantly troll people - I think they're getting wound up with being mistaken for an official site. As for Thrash Hits stuff, I'd say it's certainly Sonisphere related, Hugh who runs the site tweeted:

Y'know that feeling you get when someone gives you a festival "rumour" and you're just not sure if they're fucking with you or not? THAT.

not to be funny be there is the odd time others have info of something that you don't. today being an example where someone might have had some headliner info that you instantly poured water over and then had to back track.

I don't ever claim to be the only place that gets 'secret' info. :rolleyes:

I poured water over that one on the basis of what is a very regular occurrance, of people using what I've said to post bollocks. It was far more likely to be that (and still might be) than an accurate post - if we took belief in all posts of supposed leaks being accurate then R/L this year has about 100 headliners. ;)

I back tracked on that because very shortly after I'd posted what I'd posted I got some info from somewhere which suggested - note suggested, and not anything more - there might be something to it. I'm more than prepared to put myself out there with what I'm thinking, and that gives twats like you who have a different version of everything every five minutes on the basis of nothing the opportunity to shoot me down when you'd be better off shooting yourself if accuracy is what you crave.

You also, the other week said you might have to eat your words.

yep, I said I might. Turns out that I won't. Whoopy do.

I'm not saying your not reliable but it is the case than people who say they have info, genuinly the odd time do

yep, just the odd time of of many thousands that don't.

Which gives me a very strong basis for taking what they say as bollocks, particularly when it very often follows a pattern (as this one did) of seeming to be riding off the back of something I've said but which later gets proven beyond all doubt as bollocks.

    • It’s probably fairly easy to stay in a hotel but I much prefer the camping set up. It was pretty quiet where we camped but a longer walk to the arena but the weather was nice so not a problem. There’s also a lake you can camp by. Once we got off the tube/train we walked down the main road and turned right (festival site is left) and camped down there.    Do you think? They do have water points inside the arena & where I camped there were toilets, showers & water points super close. I think if you time it right the RiP stage is so easy to get close to the front. Second stage is decent & a like the indoor arena for bands on the 3rd stage. I think all the stages sound better than Downloads too, always had issues with the 2nd stage at Download being too quiet. Even main at some points. 
    • Interesting that they’ve mentioned Blink-182 in mail. Btw dates for 2027 are 10-12 June. Same dates as Mystic & Sweden Rock and most likely Download, RFP & Greenfield.     
    • Scooter are a meme booking. The Chems aren’t viewed in the same way. They’re a serious electronic act, whereas Scooter has only ever been suggested (and now booked) because ‘LOL look how wacky us metalheads are we love silly music too’.
