Graspop Metal Meeting 2014

[Gossard]

Anyone going next year? Any rumors? I'm hoping for Volbeat, Aerosmith and Black Sabbath as headliners

[Dietediet]

Facebook page cover photo is obviously hinting at Rob Zombie. Not sure if he would be headliner or sub though. Black Sabbath is spot on, they're in Germany that weekend and have to make up for a cancellation from 2012.

[Gossard]

Rob Zombie subbed Slipknot in 2011. But Black Sabbath canceled in 2011, not 2012....I remember waking up in the Metaltown and this was the first news I got...I've head better hangovers than that day and the Black Sabbath news didin't help

[Dietediet]

Oh weird, I was pretty certain that it was 2012, since I actually planned on buying a ticket until the news of his cancer came. And Zombie wil sub indeed (won't sell enough tickets), I'm guessing he'll be the 'strong' sub to the 'weaker' headliner (probably Volbeat).

If they manage to fix the Sabbath - Soundgarden combo, I'm gonna go crazy.

[Gossard]

This would be a dream come true

Rob Zombie - Volbeat

Soundgarden - Black Sabbath

Mötley Crue - Aerosmith

[Gossard]

They put this on their facebook site about two hours ago...

"Believe it or not but we are putting together a fantastic lineup for Graspop Metal Meeting 2014. We promise the end result will definitely be worth the wait but please bear with us for now. Meanwhile we are very curious to hear which three headliners you’d like to see this summer."

And a new stage added, going to a dual main stage system.

[Gossard]

You think Volbeat and Avenged Sevenfold are headliners? Or can we expect the likes of Aerosmith?

[Dietediet]

Well, it appears so. Volbeat, Black Sabbath and Avenged Sevenfold are the only 3 bands where an actual day is confirmed + playing on main stage 1. I'm assuming it's to make clear they're the headliners, for when ticket sale starts tomorrow.

[Gossard]

Actually Sabaton are confirmed on Friday on Main Stage 2. But it's a big jump for A7X from third down(before Rob Zombie and Slipknow) in 2011 to headliner in 2014.

[Gossard]

But Volbeat and A7X are confirmed as headliners, I just got an newsletter e-mail from Graspop

[Gossard]

Rob Zombie would be cool, I really liked him in 2011. But I got two of the three headliners I was hoping for(Volbeat, Black Sabbath) and I'll take A7X as they are one of my favorite bands

Soundgarden, Alestorm, AlterBridge, Graveyard and SÓLSTAFIR(Icelandic band from a little town next to where I live...the bass player even worked for the same company as I do )all bands that I love. I'm going, no question. Just hoping for Steel Panther now

[Dietediet]

Never been to Graspop myself, but that Black Sabbath-Soundgarden combo is convincing me to go a day. Now hoping that either of Neurosis, DEP, Orange Goblin, Opeth, Carcass, Cult of Luna or Kylesa will be there too on that day. Can't be too hard to manage
