Would be a right larf if they were at Download again.

I'd be splitting my sides. With razors. To try and alleviate the boredom.You can have too much Maiden.

Zegut rumouring NIN and Alice Cooper for Hellfest. Do the thing, Andy. Get NIN.

If NIN go from not wanting to do metal festivals to jumping on the same bill as Angelcorpse and Necroblood, that'll be a huge climbdown.

Don't know if anyone else has had the email off Ticketmaster but they're offering 2 for 1 tickets today only on the upcoming Airbourne, Creeper, Extreme, FFDP, Gogol Bordello, Opeth, Rise Against and Stone Sour tours. Nothing there for me but if anyone wants a link hit me up. Seems like a lot of rock bands thought they were bigger than they were, I thought when it was announced that Stone Sour playing arenas and charging 40 odd quid seemed insane.

Anyway they're very Downloady acts so thought I'd post on here.

Surprised Gogol lads are still playing venues that big but yeah I guess not for long.

I thought they were all separate links so didn't post it before but found one that has them all listed. Hopefully it works for everyone and not just if you had the email, here you go.

For those saying Trent won't play heavy festivals what is this?

They played Riot Fest too which is about as heavy as that.

It's not just something surmised by their choice of festivals and taken as fact, it's something the Soundwave booker (that now books Download Australia) said as much.

Get em subbing Metallica and I'd be tempted to go tbh.

Or get em to headline with some good bands (unlikely, it's Download) below.

Might be reading too much in to that but seems an odd thing for the keyboardist of BMTH to like..

Pretty sure he did similar with Glasto in 2016 which they ended up playing so it may mean something.

Although I think he liked a tweet about them playing Glasto as opposed to tweets from their account.

Didn’t one of them like something about playing Reading this year?

Deftones as well now. Don’t suppose they’d be back at Download unless they had another album to show tho.

Init I'd say it's bad but every other aspect of my life is as bad as the fact I post on eFests.

Yeah, can't see them being back again so soon without anything new to promote. 

I wouldn't complain, though. I'm still yet to properly see Deftones (I don't count the 10mins I sat on a bin and watched eating chips at Leeds 2011 when I wasn't into them  ). 

[Andre91]

Zegut has said a few minutes ago that Metallica have postponed their Summer 2018 European run (he has no question mark next to it so he must solidly believe that). 

Would make sense as to why Download have pushed back their announcement. 

BMTH on speed dial

Only if Iron Maiden are no longer on the market...

UGH. 

Maiden don't strike me as the kind of band that would be drafted in last minute. All of their tours are usually really long and planned out. 

We all know who stepped in last time someone pulled out in 2013...

I actually kinda hope Slipknot get pulled in but that's only because I've only seen them once before, but i can see why it would be annoying for regular goers. Better than blood Maiden tho surely haha

[devilman]

Ozzy, A7x and GnR then. All good.
