yasss
i cant wait
a hope its metallica and iron maidan headline
KISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Slipknot would be kick ass headliners
>it’s 2010 festival
>it’s 2010
>it’s
I’ll have a quick guess at who will headline.
Sat – KISS
Sun – GreenDay
Bassically from the following facts. Kiss have confirmed they will be over in the UK in Summer/Fall time with their Sonic Boom/Alive 35 World Tour. They have a new album just released and it will be 2 and a bit years since they last played a very succesful set in the UK. A one off festival date is much more likely than a full tour that they promised us at Download and we still havn’t received.
Greenday – Again, new album just relased, about to embark on a very succesfull UK arena tour in which they will no doubt pop a comment in there about coming over in August for a festival, which will spread rumours all over forum boards about either a Sonisphere or a Reading/Leeds headline slot. However with Blink 182 very likely to headline the R/L weekend, it is extremeley unlikely they would book two punk punk/alternative bands to headline the same weekend, with the vaery varid audience those fests attract.
Sonisphere is a growing festival and would be a much more comercial spot for GreenDay to play. Plus both bands would sell the weekend a whole lot better than Linkin Park and Metallica did. A surprising as that sounds its true, however Sonisphere’s problem was it was new, bands were cancelling, then self anpuncing then cancelling, and it was being built up very slowly compared to R/L and Download.
Other bands I predict will play are Slayer[Poss 2nd stage headliner],Trivium, Ace Freshley, The Offspring[Poss 2nd stage headliner], Pendulum, Killswitch Engage, Five Finger Death Punch, Steel Panther [Most likely 2nd stage headliner of the lot], Rob Zombie [Only UK date of 2010], Bowling for Soup.
End,
Ryan Devlin.
i agree with john, slipknot would be insane
sabbath and slayer…
Slipknot would bore me personally. They were here last year at download, and with only 4 albums behind them, I couldn’t see much of a different set being played. I’m wanting something rare
MAIDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please please please have Korn, Megadeth, Devildriver or Motley Crue headlining. They are all kickass bands.
What would be better if you added Five Finger Death Punch, Lamb Of God, Behemoth and Sucide Silence. And invite Corey Taylor back. He is awesome as a soloist.
Iron Maiden is a must for these dates!
No one for AC/DC then?
Maiden Maiden Maiden……………..gotta b Maiden like!!!!!!!
Ac/dc
Van Halen
Maiden
F*ck Soni! Donny is 3days of music for the same price as Soni 2 days AND IT WAS 10 TIMES BETTER!!
Muse and Slipknot headliners
there gonna need to get some legends to top this year
im thinking…. metallica FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH!!! bfmv disturbed korn a7x slipknot machine head maiden slayer heaven n hell skindred acdc kiss steel panther zztop lamb of god anthrax megadeth foo fighters, them crooked vultures urmmm.. stone sour…… evanecscence??? tenacious d!!!
best show ever
oh shit i forgot motorhead
I want it to be led zep, cos I have a mate who saw them at knebworth and I want to be able to say the same
SEPULTURA!!!!!!!!!!!! The real Sepultura with the Cavaleras, not this cover band that has the name.
5FDP all the way!!!!!!!
@ Moshtank – um, half those bands played this year… Also, Evanescence? Really??
Oh, you’re serious. Shame.
Muse and maiden to headline
slipknot and judas preist to sub (considering NIN and sabbath (H&H) subbed last year)
I like the way you think Moshtank.
How about for headliners…. Ozzy and Maiden?!?!
woll golsovon, oltomote oldfog
Disturbed / Down / STP / Type O Negative / Rob Zombie, just a few ideas…
Im going on a day ticket this year, VIP wasnt all that.
fuck soni and download wacken was 3 days of metal and cheaper than both WACKEN WACKEN WACKEN people only went 2 soni cos wacken was sold out
Bloodstock is better aswell
Slipknot won’t be headlining, there finsihing thier tour in Jan and by the time Sonisphere 2010 comes around Corey and Jim will be too busy with Stone Sour. Muse would be an interesting bet though.
IRON MAIDEN!!!!
i have a strong feeling its going to be iron maiden as one of the headliners,well i hope so anyway!
Methods of Mayhem??? No? ok.
Maiden (obviously!), Slayer, Carcass, Testament, Arch Enemy, Ozzy (hopefully on his farewell tour!!), Hammerfall, Municipal Waste, KISS (PLEASE be their farewell tour!!), Motorhead, Gama Bomb, W.A.S.P. etc etc etc!
As i lay dying would make my life

SLAYER!!!! to headline
thats pure shite and unrealistic
maiden couldnt headline my own shite and they couldnt even sub
fucks sake
sorry i meant megadeth
maiden rule
Five Finger Death Punch, Bullet for my valentine, Disturbed, korn, Avenged Sevenfold, Sucide Silence, Dope, Devildriver or Evanecscence
All bands that if anyone has any intellegence would have even be thought of in relation to headlining any festival
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
MAIDEN
Makes no difference to me, festivals are all wank anyway. See great bands on a crap stage with dire sound in the middle of the day with zero atmosphere…..better off staying at home, fuckin the missus and waiting for the couple of decent bands to tour solo.
Iron Maiden (gods of metal)
AC/DC (gods of Hard Rock)
Slipknot (fuckin kickass)
Bullet for my Valentine (Metalcore giants)
All of ‘em or pic an mix! Wat would be a better group of bands? email me your responses.
Denham5664@hotmail.com, if u need it.
Saturday: MAIDEN
Sunday: AC/DC
Pantera with Zakk Wylde!!!! Never gna happen tho lol
However I agree with the majority, Maiden to headline, saw em @ the M.E.N. a few years back – only played like 4 classics
i want MAIDENNNN
Muse && Slipknot. Headlining.
+ A7x && Disturbed aswell (Y)
AC/DC
Iron Maiden
Black Label Society
Airbourne
Deep Purple
Whitesnake
Pearl Jam
Rage Against The Machine
Green Day ~ Any of these or a mix
It will most likely be Maiden headlining one night,
But people need to stop saying Slipknot because its not going to happen as Corey will be to busy with Stone Sour. The other headliner may well be someone like Slayer or Rammenstein, hoping it will be Slayer.
Then other bands playing would be Suicide Silence, Trrivium, Avenged, Disturbed, Five finger death punch, Killswitch, Bullet for my Valentine and maybe Korn and many more.
Remember where you heard this first
Saturday headliner – Rammstein
Sunday headliner – Iron Maiden
100% guaranteed! I have it on very good authority
i think evanescence should be there i wanna c them back again
slipknot should be there too possibly headline depends if corey isnt extra busy like previous comment said with stone sour but at least his still solo thats cool
