No Priest.

However Bullet For My Valentine are gonna be confirmed soon, as seen on the little flyers which come with the Tickets.

Heh

Might just get you to come along that might!

No.

I like about three of there songs, however I am probably gonna go to Sziget 2008 in Budapest. Besides I am not wasting £200+ to see about 4 bands and get drunk in a field when I can do that for free

Purely personal taste. I don't like death metal, nor what I've heard of Carcass and At The Gates before (although if nothing else is on at the time I might at least have a peek). Bodom I can't stand post-Follow the Reaper, but I love that particular album, and Nightwish I like quite a bit, including Once (though I wasn't impressed with the latest, too wishy-washy).

OK so I can deal with BFMV being on the bill, I'll just not watch them, but why so high up!? Do these people not listen to the fans, or are there just too many fanfags out there? argh.

by **Dian Wei** on Thu Feb 21, 2008 10:51 pm

There was a pretty obvious shift between 06 and 07 with the type of fans there. Or at least i would say so.

Hopefully they are not starting to just think of the money.

They must of made a mint in 06 as it sold out and the bands playing were hardly "massive" bands. For example it was headlined by Celtic Frost, Motorhead and Emperor, doesn't make sense that they need to pull killswitch engage or Bullet for my valentine to play as in the last couple of years it hasn't had those sorts of bands playing.
Still this year has enough bands for me to go see, there is a really good attitude at the festival (i hope the arseholes don't turn up due to the more mainstream bands) and it is always fun as its my holiday for the year so i can't complain but i think ill wait just that little bit longer to see who is playing next year and see what the other options are.

The lineup i think isn't brilliant so far.
they really do need to get some more good bands on the bill, too much tripe

by **Tymell** on Fri Feb 29, 2008 9:53 pm

Alestorm have just been added! FUCK yes!!

YARRRRRRRRR!!! :rockdevil:

Aye, good stuffs with that one. Hopefully they'll keep up with the good announcements and get over their crappy shit wank phase. Altho BMFV are still to come... yaeerhjs.

I think it might be sold out, but it has done this to me a few times.

by **boovidge** on Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:07 am

it's not sold out...hopefully :eyes:

Cynic confirmed, the tech-death metallers that is

by **boovidge** on Mon Mar 03, 2008 9:35 pm

i've been wanking over this ever since i heard a few hours ago

by **thrashduck** on Mon Mar 03, 2008 9:38 pm

Excellent, so we'll meet up and get pissed in the campsite then? No?
