Saw Biffy and Metallica last year at Sonisphere, great bands. I think this is a very good initial line up, quite alternative with some of the bands. Only one's i'm not keen on are Chase and Status, but i'll most likely be so fucked on the Friday I won't care an I'll rave till my head explodes and the other is YMA6, just not a fan. Rest i'd love to see or would be intrigued to see. And that's the point to see bands you like and to see others you're not so keen on or don't know so they can hopefully change your mind.

Not idea, don't pay attention. I usually watch the unsigned stage at festivals to be honest.

I'm gonna book my tickets once I know my mates are serious about going. Although I went to Sonisphere last year and found myself a camp of random folks I met in the queue. Looking forward to him definitely, there was a rumour flying around about Sum 41 being on the bill. I await expectant.
Who are you looking forward to most so far?

They are brilliant live, saw them a couple of years ago. Can't wait for their new album X. Glad they were announced.

I don't get the fact that You Me At Six will be playing at the same festival with ALL OF THOSE OTHER, COMPLETELY DIFFERENT bands.
Someone must've went like: ''Well, I think You Me At Six fits terrrrrrrific in this line-up! Let's call 'em.''
I'd love to see Rise Against live again. Darn me for not being English.

that's actually so bad. They're going to stick out like a stick in the mud. I don't know, it's really odd to me. I'd love to see Biffy Clyro, Rise Against and Billy Talent though. Damn me being in Canada.
