Thats the time and date of the next announcement

9am Weds 29th Feb.

22 acts

[AcademicPistol]

Roll on 9pm Wednesday, the ideal announcement for me would be Porcupine Tree, Monster Magnet, In Flames, The Hives, Less Than Jake, Pennywise & Parkway Drive maybe something for youngsters like Twin Atlantic, Lower Than Atlantis or We Are The Ocean & bring someone back like Blue Oyster Cult or Focus.

[Lord-Seabass]

Im hoping for Therapy, W.A.S.P, Helloween,Reel Big Fish,Royal Republic,Feeder,Alien Ant Farm,Apocalyptica,Black Spiders,Jett Black,Blood Hound Gang,Dommin,Enter Shikari,Europe,new Model Army,Slaughter,Tesla,and just to be greedy a little known band called Lustra (just to hear Scotty dosen't know live lol).

[AcademicPistol]

I would love an Alien Ant Farm reunion as well and wow that band from euro trip actually exist?

[t8yman]

reunion? didnt they play soni in 09?

[jordanuk90]

I didn't think Lustra was real seeing as Matt Damon was the lead singer in Euro Trip.

[AcademicPistol]

[luckysalt]

Not yet, but Andy has confirmed the bands on twitter, so can't imagine the original poster of the line up was lying about the layout of acts when he didn't about the acts playing

Fozzy look like they clash with Panther, watching fucking Fozzy!
