seely Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Wanted to go last year, as it had a killer line up, but couldn't afford it, as I bought 2 day tickets to see Guns at both Reading and Leeds festivalsThe download lineup this year is fucking awful. System of a Down? Linin Park? Fuck right off. Def Leppard are the only semi decent band there. Sonisphere FTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Never been, but the lineup makes it immensely tempting. Quite expensive though imho, but there are some truly great acts this year - not too sure on the headliners mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonisphere FTWI'm more interested in the likes of Frank Turner, Cheap Trick, Rob Zombie, Alice Cooper, Gaslight Anthem, Loaded and The Darkness than any of the headliners to be honest...though i've heard SOAD are a blast live and I could see Def Leppard being fun if (when) I was hammered drunk.

Can't say I'm terribly impressed with any of the line-ups this year though. Other than the Big 4 festivals, there's typically not even a handful of good bands on the bills. I'd certainly go to another Sonisphere though, if they ever have another bill as good as Stockholm last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansidhe Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Lineup is pish this year. I went 2006-9 and it was decent but went steadily downhill imo.Went to Sonisphere last year and it was excellent. Attending again this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAC185 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Last year I went for the mental headliners + Slash, STP and a few others for the most part. I was kind of surprised at how much nicer the overall atmosphere is at a more heavy festival - even though when I thought about it it probably does make more sense.This year none of the headliners really interest me but there are alot of other bands I would have liked to have gone and seen.
