lharris92 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) ok just a round up of any rumours that have been going round for soni this year. btw its still in the making as i'm trying to sift through all the names being chucked around and which are credible or not. Confirmed None as yet - will be updated when the first announcement is made. Self-Confirmed None as of yet - will be updated when and if any act does. Strong Rumours Killswitch Engage - Metalhammer podcast hinted they would be playing soni, since then their singer has left so will have to see. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rumours Billy Talent - Going to be touring this year, but looking unlikely due to tour dates announced so far. Van Halen - touring this year, but no dates announced yet so yet to see when they will be touring Europe. Kiss - world tour this year for up to 18 months, no dates announced yet. Lostprophets - got a new album out and likely to play a festival or two. Guns N Roses - was a rumoured date in Poland on June the 30th, if so could possibly bring them into contention. Tool - touring the US this month and with a new album out in May. haven't been to the UK in a few years. Queen, Slash & Faith No More - apparently leaked by French Radio to be playing sonisphere France so could see any of these 3 feature. Koяn - touring in March and no hints to whether they will play festivals or not, unlikely though. QoTSA - currently making a new album, which could see them touring later this year. Rammstein - UK tour in feb/march, and nothing yet planned for the summer. possibly not playing any festivals due to the tour though. Will update it more in the morning, just got some on here to get it started. if i have missed any out let me know and i will edit them in.

t8yman Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 no chance, cant see DLR and EVH being up to the euro festival circuit after that lot. I would love it though, I just cant see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejimbola Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Maybe the rumour of Reading taking a headliner from Download's wishlist wasn't about Foo Fighters after all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
she bangs the drums Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 I'm actually in Florida in the middle of April, I might have to see if I can get tickets to see Van Halen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furious-Red Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Sonisphere Facbook just advertised a Dragonforce gig in the 100 club , Presume they might be at Soni this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Sonisphere Facbook just advertised a Dragonforce gig in the 100 club , Presume they might be at Soni this year I don't think that's necessarily the case. That Dragonforce gig is the first item in the latest Kili-Live newsletter that just dropped into my inbox, so it's probably just them pushing a gig that Kili is promoting to an audience that'll have an interest in it.

TYLER_4 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 I have a feeling this is Rammstein that will be playing R & L and are the band that Download wanted, I cannot see that they will end up playing no festivals this summer on the back of the 'Made In Germany 1995-2011' tour which is expected to be there last shows for a while and I've seen a few reports saying sources have said they are playing a few festivals.

HoTWire Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I'm going to throw At The Drive In into the mix... not headlining I expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kipper64 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Yeah I've heard rumblings they may play. After Soni got TMV to do a rare festival performance this year, maybe ATDI will return for a similar slot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfire Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I would agree with that if Reading don't snap them up on an exclusive first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TYLER_4 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 i think reading might get them, but there is a new mars volta album out next year so who knows what band will play where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckysalt Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Refused have also been announced for Groezrock end of April in Belgium. They have such an amazing line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kipper64 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Too right, I've always wanted to go, and even before Refused the line up was really strong, Refused would seal the deal for me if it wasn't around exams time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
