The first download bands being announced. Like so many other years they announce a few turds, then throw a diamond in there to keep the metal fan interested.

This year, the first bands are The Offspring, Lostprophets, and Him

pretty awful for sure, but, the other band announced

Judas Priest :dance:

headlining band for Friday is "a legendary rock band" apparently... I'm still crossing all my fingers for KISS.

ACDC?? or Kiss??

I'd be happy with either really, though I'm sure ACDC have completely denied doing anything this year.

By the looks of the site, Lostprophets are headlining the Sunday, fucking hell. Enough people complained when System of a Down did it, this is an awful decision.

Should be awesome to see Priest and Motorhead.

Bit pissed off about the choices for other acts though. Who the fuck wants to see Lostprophets headline?

Judas Priest should not be very special guests to KISS....Judas Priest should be headliners, not some merchandise whoring machine headlining.

I can just see Friday night being:

KISS
Judas Priest
Motorhead

As for Sunday for LostProphets...thats ok, cause Fall Out Boy is rumoured as very special guests. So everyone can leave early and let the emos have sunday for themselves :lol:

If I was going...I'd probably watch Motorhead and Judas Priest and then head for my tent.

Yeah, but if you weren't a complete cunt you went and watched Napalm Death headline instead, which was awesome.

I don't want to see any of the three headliners at all, so i'm not sure i'm gonna go.
