TOOL

[TYLER_4]

its official tool are back for a summer tour!!!!

sunday under radiohead? i can see that!!

it would save reading this year and be a suprise band!

[Lithium05]

That would be superb! Can't help but be pessimistic and assume the cash cow that is sonisphere might swoop in first though.

Edit: Never gonna happen, but how epic would it be to see them headline the second stage

i'm not sure about sonisphere, because i cant see them playing under linkin park. Doesn't seem to fit, NIN are already under metallica who knows!?

and second stage headliners, that would be INSANE same day as arctic monkeys or KOL, that would be brilliant. Unfortunatley never going to happen ey

[beLIEveR]

People are just guessing that NIN are under Metallica. Personally I think it could go either way. Seeing as I'm going to both though, I don't care

To be honest I want someone rubbish under Radiohead.

Radiohead are an amazing live band, period.

BUT Radiohead are unquestionably, uncontestably and forever will remain the greatest live band of all time. If you're stoned.

I don't want to miss any of Tool though.

Tool will probably do sonisphere or download. Reading will get the wombats or some other crap

[TYLER_4]

for readings sake they need someone like tool, otherwise it looks to be the weakest lineup for a long time (minus radiohead)

would have me back at leeds instantly. Missed out on seeing tool for their last tour so i'm shocked they're back so soon, more likely a band for sonisphere though (although neil said that the lineup for the linkin park day wouldn't be as heavy). Either way, it would have to be headlining the tent, it's bigger now and after the mass exodus for nin in 07 i doubt a significant amount of people who go to reading/ leeds even know who tool are lol.

if they play reading - i'll day ticket it just for them. they were insanely good the last time they were over here for the brixton shows. would much rather they played their own shows than festivals though........

[Spengs Muck]

id love to see the chavindie kids wrap their heads aroud tool; it would be hilarious.

[Spiral_Low]

They won't do Download...all the top spots gone there.

Probs won't do Reading...so it's gonan be Sonispher eif they do any of the 3. Which makes sense as with Sonisphere's 2 main stage deal thing they need 1 more headliner....Metallica, NIN and Linkin park being 3 of the 4 already.

And Sonisphere's twitter mentioned Tool a couple weeks ago, starting the whole 'Tool for sonisphere' rumour.

f**king hell, Reading is truly being raped by this new festival.

It makes me wonder what Sonisphere will do next year, they've got all the good metal acts this year!

sonisphere im afraid has download and readings number this year by the look of things, especialy if they get tool and placebo ey!

[kaosmark2]

If Tool play Reading, I'm there for that day.

Though I suspect they'll play Sonisphere.

Id imagine sonisphere were gonna get placebo then tool came up so get them and we get placebo

[thomasowen]

If Tool play Reading, I'm there for that day.

Though I suspect they'll play Sonisphere.

Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Slipknot, Rage perhaps?

Followed by Guns n Roses, Aerosmith, SOAD reunion and Metallica again?

But yeah, I doubt Sonisphere's line-up will be anywhere near as good next year. I reckon they're just trying to really charge at the market and get their own fanbase.

[moss265]

I can see it now: "And 2010's Sonisphere Headliners are......

My Chemical Romance and The Kooks!"

180 quid a ticket!

[Spiral_Low]

I dunno, id imagine Placebo want to play second where ever they play and when tool came up they were certs to play second so sonisphere said 3rd or nothing and placebo walked and reading took them up pushing offspring down to 3rd with janes addiction 4th

Of course there will always be good headliners (well not always as download has struggled in recent years) but the acts they have a bit further down on the bill have been pretty excelent this year, and I cant see them matching it in years to come. Too much too soon?
