kev1664 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 No idea, but Sabbath were in talks around the September/October time. I'm sure I remember an interview where he said they had two tied down and were working on the last one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetime Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 True, but Neil seemed pretty confident that Sabbath were in talks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 In talks just means they talked. It doesn't mean they went anywhere. I'm still convinced that SOAD aren't big enough to headline. Noone's come up with any new arguments, they've just repeated the same ones as before.

FloorFiller Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) if it turns out to be Mumfords headlining, and SOAD are a sub (to either Biffy or Eminem - could work either way) then that would provide to be a much stronger uppercard in my eyes. not to my taste - i hate Mumfords - but in terms of getting people to the festival it would work a lot better Edited January 15, 2013 by FloorFiller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K126 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm still convinced that SOAD aren't big enough to headline If they are big enough to headline Download.... They are big enough to headline Reading and Leeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtourette Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Yeah found the video it does say two locked in ad the other should be easy to get. How were sabbath in talks then? I thought Neil had said that he had heard they had, had talks, he didnt say when that was did he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hart Attack Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm going with SOAD. Don't know where people are getting the idea that they aren't big enough; they've been headlining festivals all over the world over the last few years. They subbed Reading in 2003, but that was without comeback demand (which there ought to be plenty of still since they've only played the one UK show since reuniting, and that will have been two years ago by the summer) and that was also before they released Hypnotize and Mezmerize, two of their most successful albums which added a lot of the more popular songs to their catalogue.

eFestivals Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 let's remember as well guys, circumstances can change that ThrashHits, should they have been right and you have to give them some credit, if it is Biffy which we expect, they sounded and got it right. SOAD may have been headlining initially but another band they are gunning for agree and they agree the drop.good to see your analysis is as poor as ever gazza.

Lithium05 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I bet it turns out to be Metallica. Good ol' safe booking Metallica. Every five years like clockwork to remind people that Reading/Leeds can still rock.... And they leaked the Sabbath rumour to catch people off guard... Like "we might book a band who have not played in recent history... Lol jk, Metallica again bitches!"... Because that's how Melvin talks.
