[lharris92]

there's a statement on slipknots facebook saying that they have a big announcement monday. whatever that says most likely will influence the future/ and whether they will be playing in the foreseeable future.

EDIT: corey taylor has also said stone sour news the week after on twitter

Damn, beat me to it I know they've got a Greatest Hits album being released, but surely this big announcement isn't for that? He keeps saying the meaning of 'HoGaB' is going to be revealed, whatever that is! I wonder of its an acronym for a new Slipknot album in the works? Who Knows!

[Andre91]

the HoGaB thing is to do with stone sour, as yesterday he said 8 days til that is revealed...

[BTK1609]

Can't say I'm too interested in Stone Sour but hopefully the Slipknot announcement is a new album and tour over here!

[luckysalt]

I think the Slipknot news could be them doing an outdoor tour in a tent judging by the picture that was posted with it.

perhaps....

who knows, I remember Radiohead did the same thing in 2000 [i think it was..] The Big Top tour, I went to it in Wales, it was ace

[BTK1609]

^^^ That would make sense. If it were that I hope they do a few dates and not just London.

[Andre91]

That would be pretty awesome, the atmosphere seeing them in a tent would be great. Yeah I also hope they don't just do London shows!

[lharris92]

yeah the stone sour news will most likely be an album i'd guess, but i'm intrigued by the slipknot news as well, no idea what it could be. yes i did see the teaser image but im clueless

[Black_Crow]

The Slipknot news is Knotfest in Iowa with Deftones and a few other bands and the Greatest Hits album that will be released soon.

[cornucopia]

The Slipknot side of things is the most interesting out of all this. StoneSour are recording and will release an album and tour (not necessarily in this country), this year.

[lharris92]

yeah its 2 1 day fests like Black_Crow said. however no news of a greatest hits, but they will be back in the studio after the stone sour tour that will happen

[BTK1609]

Bit disappointing for us Brits then! Hopefully they will be back over here soon. If they don't do Download do people think there is any chance of a big outdoor show next summer, MK Bowl perhaps?

[luckysalt]

Wow I was kinda right then.

I also heard tonight this will be coming to UK too.

Although I have nothing more than that

[lharris92]

i do:

[luckysalt]

Ah Corey confirms it'll happen it UK but nothing more.

[BTK1609]

If it happens in the UK I hope it's priced in line with the US, it looks great value! Knebworth may be a possibility if as expected Soni doesn't return. Not sure where else it could take place though.

[Gucci Piggy]

What do you guys think the chances of Muse playing next year are? I'm planning on going to a festival they play at for at least one day. I just hope to God I don't have to go to V, and Download would be ideal.

From an outsider would download customers want bands like foos and muse?

Didn't seem that metal lulz to me. They've had the likes of Feeder and MCR headline before, and Foos and Muse have more hard-rock credibility.

[lharris92]

if they do a poll i might put down MCR, Paramore and 30STM for a laugh.

then be enraged if it actually happened.

[kaosmark2]

Feeder was the first download if I remember correctly and mcr were slaughtered for headlining.

Foos would be more acceptable I would of thought.

[Dan R]

Feeder was the second Download, and the organisers have since gone on record as saying it didn't work out as well as they had hoped. Plus there were rumours that Blink 182 were meant to headline but split up, so Feeder got bumped to headliner, though i have no idea how true those rumours may be
