Was that ever shown to be the reason? The soundwave guy seemed to be in a bit of a mood and posted a lot of stuff about Trent turning down his fesival as he didn't want to play to that fanbase, but then afterwards it seemed to be because NIN were doing their own tour with QotSA in Australia instead of festivals. So it's more than likely he just said no because of the NIN/QotSA tour.

Tomorrows announcement was said to include the first headliners somewhere, which makes me think we'll get 2 headliners, but not all 3.

I had no idea Slayer, Mastodon and Ghost were announced for Soni Hamburg. I imagine they'll feature then, fancy them getting 'the big 4' together in 2011 and then next Sonisphere they're all (bar Anthrax who just play Sonisphere anyway) back in the area again. :P

Well, my final prediction is going to be:

Friday Apollo

System of a Down

Soundgarden

Megadeth

Saturday Apollo

Metallica

Stone Temple Pilots

Motörhead

Saturday Saturn

Slayer

Mastodon

Sunday Apollo

Iron Maiden

Deep Purple

Alice in Chains

Sunday Saturn

Alice Cooper

Anthrax

Aye, the soni Hamburg line up didn't really surprise me. Next years line up will probably feature a lot of K2 bands, and bands that Kili are promoting too (which has been the case in the past anyways) It'll be easier for them to be booked, obviously - and were probably approached well in advance for 2014. Good thing about that is, they are mostly pretty good bands!

From the upcoming tours/bands they tend to do tours for I'd expect The Wildhearts, 65DOS, Red Fang, Frank Turner, While She Sleeps, The Defiled, Don Broco, Mallory Knox, Protest the Hero, Sylosis, Alk Trio and Sonic Boom six to have been approached and some of them as serious possibilities. K2 bands from the top of my head are Maiden, Metallica, anything related to Corey Taylor, Alice in Chains Slayer, Mastodon, GHOST, Rob Zombie (obviously not happening as he's at Download)...there's more but that's all I can remember off the top of my head that would fit into soni.

But aye, I'd expect a bunch from those to turn up, obviously not much of a surprise as a lot have either played before, or people would expect to see anyway, but it shows who is most likely to turn up.

They should be tying up their bands like The Joy Formidable and Cage The Elephant and competing with R&L instead of putting on the same shitty predictable bands lower down the undercard. Sounds like they just want to put on another version of Download, which wasn't a great long-term model for success last time.

    • Even with the recent heavy showers it's too early to tell what site conditions would have been like.  The very hot spell would have certainly dried things up considerably, and rain since then has been equalled by a stiff breeze so, without the benefit of actually walking the site, I'd guess ground conditions at present are about perfect.   If we had a festival to look forward to I think the weather watchers would have been at the "all to play for" stage at present.
    • Hush cancelled with a similar event now taking place at EartH and Cate Le Bon doing her own show, maybe others have rearranged gigs?
    • Yeah I find it strange, if they were just a silly act then they wouldn't be headlining the 3rd stage. The likes of vengaboys yes but they aren't doing their own sizeable arena dates.  That looks very weak for what they could actually get, but GC aren't playing 3rd main stage with The 02 and the Coop arena and in a same slot that KSE are. MIW aren't carrying those two dates either, neither are Turnstile and Parkway Drive tickets didn't play out. You gotta do better than Ghost, Blink and Deftones though.    I think you are a bit even if that is not the intention. I'm genuinely shocked they booked them for the avalanche and I think it'll be rammed out of the tent. While ADTR will obviously get a lot too, many Download attendees will had the chance to see them at Slam Dunk. I think 90s fest getting Scooter was class and while there would have been some Download crossover, the Slam Dunk crossover given acts you get on the avalanche will be a different level.
