Download 2010 To Feature More Reformations?
/ News / 16/06/2009 13:24pm
Download festival organizer Andy Copping refuses to rule out more massive reformations at next year’s festival!
“I’m already talking to 4 potential headliners who are all available and want to do it,” Copping told us after picking up Event Of the Year at last night’s Golden Gods.
When asked about if all of these bands are currently together or if there will be more reformations at next year’s festival, Copping responded by saying: “I don’t want to give too much away because if it falls on its ass then I’m going to look stupid, but we’re doing our best and there’s 4 really killer acts that are saying that they’re available.”





First point…Download’s going to 4 days? O.O
Also, Manowar, Led Zepellin, Slayer, Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Slipknot, Rammstein, Heaven and Hell/Black Sabbath, Blink 182, Machine Head, Europe, Judas Priest, AC/DC.
Any of those please.
Who could be getting back together? I don’t know about you guys, I’m hoping for:
System Of A Down
Serj, Daron, Shavo, John- we want you back!
system would be cool.
hoping they take the barriers down next year so we can have massive circle pits – had some big ones this year but felt caged in……
We were talking about this on the way home… Van Halen or Soundgarden for Sunday?
Sepultura are the band the whole world is waiting to reform.
Get back the original gang and smash out Roots and Chaos A.D finishing with an encore where they play the entirety of Beneath the Remains….
Rage Against The Machine would be cool, seeing as I missed them at Reading last year!
System of a fucking Down, yes please mate! Nice shout Scott
Soundgarden Van halen and system would be great
How cool would Skid Row with Seb Bach be?
Not really headliner status, but still pretty awesome.
Van Halen would be awesome, Seps too.
Not headliners, but I would love to see a reformed Kyuss, that would be amazing.
once system of a down get comfirmed i am so fucking going no matter what
pantera with Zakk Wylde
will never happen but FUCK!!!, it’d be sooo good
Also for people interested sonisphere’s next/last batch of bands tba are gonna be revealed tomoz
How about Skid Row and it’ll never happen a reformed G’N'R
Chris Cornell played a surprisingly awesome set this year…. My money’s on him returning next year with The ‘Garden.
Van Halen, Soundgarden.
I’d like to see System OF A Down play, just so I could throw rocks at the wankers. Overrated shit they are.
Slayer should be getting ready to play the festival scene next year, the new album will either be out or pretty close to it.
Can we get The Wildhearts on the mainstage next year? They were one of the top 3 at D’load 2008, they deserve it.
Some great suggestions above (Soundgarden the most likely), but what about Kyuss for fuck’s sake?
A Surreal Metallica With Cliff Burton And Dead Lars! Huh?
Are soundgarden quite big enough to headline? System would be awesome though.
And in bands that wouldnt need to reform: Tool, AC/DC, Machine Head, Heaven and Hell. I doubt a lot of people would agree, but i wouldnt mind Muse either.
sepultura, system of down
Soundgarden would be amazing and are more than worthy headliners.
AC/DC and Metallica as the other two headliners and you can’t say any fairer than that!!
I hope the layout of the area and campsite is better next year, 45 minutes walk in the boiling hot sun to walk to the arena. we had to had walk for miles our campsite! plus st john said the prodigy wouldn`t clash with slipknot, what happend to the 5 minutes window before slipknot, that never happend!! slipknot ruled
rage against, metallica, rise against, ac/dc iron maiden, any or all please
S.O.A.D reforming to play download would be IMMENSE!!
Would like to see a reformed Soundgarden, Sepultura and Van Halen too though
s.o.a.d, ramstein and ozzy. that would be awsome.
Reformations? Let’s see Winger and Trixter playing!!
Shit, I’ve gotta lay off the drugs…
SOAD is hardly a reformation is it? It’s not like they’ve disappeared off the face of the Earth/
Soundgarden, Sepultura as potential headliners would be immense!
other names that come to mind for reunion…American Head Charge, Extreme, Ugly Kid Joe, Spineshank, Stone Temple Pilots (think they’re already back), Five Pointe O, Pulse Ultra, Raging Speedhorn, Sikth, Stampin’ Ground, Vex Red
Rammstein would be awesome!! so would disturbed, iron maiden and metallica…
bad religion would top it all tbh
Van Halen hopefully. and…… Metallica, ACDC, Iron Maiden, Black Label Society…….the list could go on and on and on. but Van Halen
SOAD, AC/DC and Kyuss to headline. I’d jizz both fire and ice.
after talking to andy on monday i have heard headliners may be ac/dc, metallica and rammstein and reforms will be system of a down
Slipknot, Guns ‘n’ Roses, The Prodigy, Iron Maden, Blink 182, Trivium, Green Day, anything like that would be fucking awesome
next years the first year I can actually go instead of watching vids. of my m8s there
MACHINE FUCKING HEAD!!!!!!!!!
