eFestivals Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Now in fairness if there's one thing Professor Green can do it's rap, he was a world champion battle MC. Music is gash though. from what I've seen on TV, the rapping's crap too. Edited August 31, 2012 by eFestivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead throne Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 this has nothing to do with reading festival or so, but download is bound to announce very soon--> they've got all 3 headliners booked and early bird tickets went off sale today...who'd you reckon? A Download announcement could tighten the choices of reading festival headliners and give us a better idea... Anyhow, I really liked the last Reading poster!

eFestivals Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Same. But he must have some skillz in there somewhere to win them battle things. or perhaps the quality of any of them isn't high....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetime Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 November but that was mostly due to Black Sabbath announcing their reunon and tour dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead throne Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 And Andy Copping keeps saying they'll announce sooner than we think. I've just been discussing it with a friend haha. I think it'll be Rammstein, Slipknot and Maiden. Maybe BFMV instead of Rammstein. I'm just hoping Pearl Jam aren't there, so I can hold out hope for them at R&L a little longer.

Gucci Piggy Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Nope, Slipknot and Rammstein the same year? really?! PJ IMO is the most likely out of any of them, due to a band member. Slipknot are not going to play Download next year. Play another show on the back of All Hope Is Gone with no new material when Corey is recording with Stone Sour, who will return to Download I imagine with Papa Roach 2 or 3 places under them. Then let another festival get Knot to promote the new album? Not a chance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 If they have Rammstein I think they will get announced first, will be a massive draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I think Pearl Jam will do Hard Rock Calling or Sonisphere to be honest, but I get what you mean about Matt Cameron being there this year. I didn't think Slipknot would be there, but there were some rumours about then earlier. Rammstein, Pearl Jam and Maiden would be a great set on my opinion.

Hart Attack Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 For Download, I'm thinking...

gazza_20 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) For Download, I'm thinking... Nickelback - Would it happen? Evanescence - Yeah or Maiden's sub at Soni but too Download 07 Alice In Chains Mastodon Coheed & Cambria Dream Theater Rammstein - Might just Stone Sour - Yeah Limp Bizkit - No Within Temptation - Chance Papa Roach - Yup Motley Crue - Yup Pearl Jam Deftones - Yup but maybe swap with Stone Sour but i see why your choices. Slayer Cypress Hill HIM Enter Shikari - This was my bet. Edited August 31, 2012 by gazza_20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseboy11 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Not sure about Nickelback, they're big enough but I don't know how they'd go down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vieuphoria Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 they need a bigger space than that to see them at their best - not that seeing them again is ever likely to happen. I saw them in 2001. They were one of the most awe-inspiring out of this world acts I have ever had the privilege to see. They were jaw-droppingly good! I went to see them a week after that, but in the meantime their on-stage antics had caused one to break his arm or something, so we got a Dexter and the other one (I forget) DJ set instead - still mindboggling good, but not a scratch on the full live show. As far as I'm aware they still exist, and keep promising a new album, but it's just down to two guys now, and I can't really believe they'll succeed in matching the magic of the last album over 10 years later. Perhaps they're trying to beat Axl's record for years between releases? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hart Attack Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 It's not a bad idea to be fair. PJ for Download sticks out like a saw thumb. Even on them two headers, i think you need to replace Nickelback, they do sell tickets but for their own punters, not a Download audience, they'd get bottled to shit!

Andre91 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Paramore ??? (Can't think of a sub) The Offspring Rammstein QOTSA Alice In Chains Slipknot Deftones Slayer We should be in the DL thread really :L Edited August 31, 2012 by Andre91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetime Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I was under the impression that Nickelback fans = hard rock/alternative metal fans = Download audience... seems like a perfect fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouseboy11 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I never understood the hate for them mind, I actually quite like them. They're a great live act too, really tight band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
