No announcement this week

[edgar]

he only played 3-4 in a 2.5 hour show last time i saw him (feb/march time) so fingers crossed!!

it does sound better live than on record but i do agree with you!!

[thejimbola]

yeah, unfortunately i saw him at the scala, where he played the entire album from start to finish (after making us wait for over an hour after the support act). biggest waste of thirty quid and three hours ever.

[edgar]

feel sorry for ya, and i reckon i had a lucky escape in that we ended up going to the shepherds bush one instead and missed the first 2 songs (both new ones i think) so only had to put up with a couple!

[thegremlin_1999]

yeah, i was gutted when i heard the set list from the empire.

[kaosmark2]

hmmm, we appear to have hijacked this thread...

[edgar]

Just turn it into a petition!

Chris Cornell to 2nd headline and play Badmotorfinger in full!

[tomisnothere]

COHEED YES

one of my favourite bands, definitely my favourite band on the lineup! not too assed about the rest apart from hundred reasons which we already knew, but heaven & hell could be a good watch - looks like they're a sub-headliner though! i was expecting someone more impressive, to be honest.

by the looks of the poster, NIN are the sub-headliners on the Linkin Park day now.

Oh dear its heaven and hell...

Hardly the massive news they were promising is it?

[Naked_Jesus]

Agreed!!! Tony f**king Iommi and Geezer Butler will be on stage and without those men NONE of the bands playing over the weekend would exist.

I saw these guys at the Brighton centre a couple of years ago and they were awesome!

Theres no Ozzy era songs or anything but it still sounds like Sabbath and Dio's got a f**king awesome voice. Well done Sonisphere you seem to have made me ditch Reading for good even before you've started!

[t8yman]

absolutely yawntastic announcement. Coheed will be awesome, the rest can f**k off.

I wish I hadnt bothered with a weekend ticket now, the saturday is proper shit.

[edgar]

pah, i hate coheed, not bothered about heaven and hell, can't stand zebrahead.

but i love the used and hundred reasons.

one thing that caught my attention:

Indie rockers The Ataris, Hardcore punks f**ked Up, Reggae rockers Pepper and pop-punkers Zebrahead will be flying in from the US to join homegrown heroes Hundred Reasons to offer an alternative to the main stage action.

[she bangs the drums]

Erm, Heaven and Hell are basically Black Sabbath with Dio.

The band who pretty much invented Heavy Metal, so i think they do deserve the slot and are apparently amazing live so i look forward to seeing them.

Its ALOT better than the MCR rumours and Offspring rumours that were flotaing around

[t8yman]

I might even sell my ticket. I'm seeing NIN soon, and have seen metallica 3 times in the last year. And there is f**k all else on the bill worth getting excited about for me. I seriously might not bother.

[she bangs the drums]

I never though I would ever say this but even MCR would have been better than H & H

At least from the festivals point of view they would have sold a sh1t load of tickets, most of the kids wouldn't even know who H & H are and when they do play it is usually to half full arena's

I guess the HUGE announcement fell through then as I don't think anyone could describe this announcement as HUGE!

[Lithium05]

Heaven and Hell I couldn't give two shits about. Without the Ozzy songs it's not Sabbath, so that argument doesn't hold any credibility. I will however now be going. Zebrahead, Coheed and The Used are enough to convince me to go

Now who feels like letting me tag along and camp with them? Efests camp anyone?
