Download Festival

Sign in to disble this ad
Just bought my ticket to this year's Download. The line-up is amazing - Faith No More, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Def Leppard, Whitesnake, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Killswitch Engage, Pendulum, ZZ Top, Dream Theatre, Black Stone Cherry, Motley Crue, Papa Roach, Buckcherry, and a whole load of others.

Anyone else going? Anyone going to any other festivals this year?

Québec summer festival

Up to now, the big names are:
Sting, Kiss, Plácido Domingo, Girl Talk, Jeff Beck, Sergent Garcia.

I'm eagerly waiting the full program. Last year we've had The Wings, Primus, Friends of King Crimson, The Frequency, Moby, stuff like that.

I've only seen footage of them but Faith No More sure rocked, it's like they'd never been gone!

Did anyone catch what amps Billy used? His cabs did have the Peavey logo on them but I thought I spied a certain "a" logo on his heads.

Out of those, the only ones I'd like to see are Faith No More, ZZ Top and Dream Theater. Haven't heard Pendulum, cool name though.

I'd much prefer to go to Wacken Open Air if I was going to one of those big European music festivals.

This made me sad that I'm not in Europe or able to go to that. That said Faith No More, Slipknot, Def Leppard, Whitesnake, Killswitch Engage, ZZ Top, Dream Theatre, Black Stone Cherry, Motley Crue, Papa Roach, Buckcherry should be awesome.
The last three did Cruefest last year and were amazing. Papa Roach and Buckcherry esp.

My guitar player was there with God Forbid. I think he said he was their for the Sunday show. I'm waiting to hear his report. But he said he was at the Golden Hammer Awards and meet like" everyone ", needless to say I am jealous.

I would love to have seen ZZ top and Faith No More. And about every other band that was there.

They're doing the European festival circuit, then I think they've lined up a few shows in South America. No North America dates have been announced.
