Download Festival 2007

[Jamesb4uk]

Just wondering if anyone's heading to the festival this year?

I'm debating it but at £145 a ticket its a bit pricey for me & the missus to go for all 3 days.

but with Maiden & Linkin Park confirmed its looking like a good weekend

Reading the papers that's still cheaper than going to some football matches ;)

I never really looked into going ot download tbh! Has it been any good? Maiden i have seen a bit of live (well most of the band was there) at the guitar show live 2 years ago and were good. Not too keen on linkin park tbh, i only liked the stuff they did with Jay Z. I have got a ticket to reading festival this year but a bit bummed as a lot of the good bands who played last year (which i didn't go to) are unlikely to play this year! That includes muse who i would love to see live! (May be able to get tickets to wembley gig off mate!!) But yeah what's the line up for download so far? What is a typical line up for it?

[Jamesb4uk]

True Les - Specially ManU tickets

@ Woody

I've never been to download so can't really comment - but i saw Maiden in december for the matter of life & death tour with the original lineup & it was great. & Steve Harris's daughter

In the words of the mighty wayne campbell shawwwwwing

Rumours are going round on who's playing but Mötley Crüe are looking likely

Dunno - think i'll wait to see who else is on the lineup

i'll wait and see who else will be playing .

MCR and Linkin park aint my cup of tea but some Maiden would be nice .

I hope its not all emo toss this year again :(

[Jamesb4uk]

Yeah MCR i've never really liked, & its the missus who wants to see LP so ho hum.

i'll give it a couple more months & check the download forum every now & again to see who's confirmed.

Machine Head are a possible as well this year.

New Machine head album almost out i believe ?

I would like to see some In Flames / Lamb of God / Killswitch this year

If LP did early stuff i could bare that

[Jamesb4uk]

Yup The Blackening is planned for release in spring.

Hope Guns & Roses don't make an appearance though - they've got a new album in March

J

[Calisto]

OHHHHHHHHHHH

G 'N' R have a new album out....YAY hope it a good one.

I LOVE AXL ROSE ...... well I did before he got all fat and lardy.

Ho hum.

[Jamesb4uk]

Chinese Democracy - no release date yet but some time in march its expected so dunno.

J

[Calisto]

wow I have waited a couple of years for that one to come out... Thanks for the heads up.

[dead_bodys_everywhere]

you realise its gonna be rubbish ?

The band started velvert revolver , Axl is the only G&R's left i think .

[Jamesb4uk]

For over $13 Million its the most expensive album & taken over 10 years to produce

I went last year with trivium, korn, metallica and that was awesome! Only thing putting me off this year is that fallout boy and mcr were headlining i believe, and to me download needs to be heavier than that..

But if KSE and linkin' are planned then i might have to go!

Lamb of God & Killswitch did it for me !

[dead_bodys_everywhere]

Stone sour aint quite up to the slipknot level :(

But Buckcherry are pure party !! this is gonna be wicked !!

[Mat-O]

Went there last year and it was amazing, speciall Metallica. This year looks good, although Linkin Park's new album (which can be viewed on youtube) is very poor compared to old albums. Wish I could go, specially as Dream Theater are one of my favourite bands, but I have exams unfortuantly.
