tat2d1 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Priest as a special guest? Shouldn't they be a headliner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Motorhead's the only good one so far. Kiss ain't even metal...IMO Maiden should headline Download every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevdo242 Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 Its not really a metal fest though. Well not anymore.Methinks this announcement is gonna give me a kick up the arse and tell me to go elsewhere. I'm thinking Leeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADPT Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Plenty of love for The Offspring. But headliners? Come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binge_And_Slash Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Wait - everyone's shitting on this year's festival after one announcement?! Last years was bloody awful as an event in whole. Apart from Megadeth, VR, Buckcherry and Maiden the event was pretty poor line-up wise. After one announcement I'm going to this year's. Mainly just for KISS, but I used to love Offspring back in the days when I was 8 or 9 haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetness Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Aw no love for Offspring? SeriouslyThe Offspring and Rise Against are good bands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 What day will Kiss headline?And will the tour the rest of Europe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 What day will Kiss headline?And will the tour the rest of Europe?They're headlining the Friday. I'm actually not too annoyed, yeah 1/3's pretty poor but there's bound to be decent bands on the second stage.I'm hoping for In Flames and Coheed and Cambria , that would sell me.

SeriouslyThe Offspring and Rise Against are good bandsWell I don't like Rise Against....but Offspring are great! It's a shame I'm not seeing them at Soundwave over here (it's shit and not worth the price just for Offspring). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
