Download headliners announced

prodigy

The three-day Download Festival, held between the 9th and 11th of June, will be headlined by Trivium, Bullet For My Valentine and The Prodigy. Well, that's the word on the net, anyway.

The event, held at Donnington park, is expected to feature in the region of 100 bands this year, each of a rock persuasion. Further acts will be confirmed this time next week.

Tickets are available from this Friday, February 3rd, at a price of £110. You've got to pay more for camping and parking, though.



Raz?

Raz? RAZ?

Where are you Raz?

GET....THE...FUCK....IN

^THATS SARCASM

UNGH

who do you think was The Major Consultant On Booking Download 2006??? (me)

well get more metal in.

Some Lamb of God, some Dillinger.

Do It!

(that wasnt true)

but remember monsters of rock

They can't headline...

They ain't big enough.

bullet?

i cant believe that theyre big enough. however popular they are, etyre not MEGADETH, are they?

hmph

I had a great time at Download last year, other from the weather bad tatoos and stinky aging topless metallers going 'ug' anywyas... but i thought the best bit was watching the smaller bands. That kind of music just feels better in a smaller tent. and Helmet played twice, which was just about the best thing EVER!

Where's the tent?

'Tallica? x

i've never had any interest in going to download

i still dont. eurgh....cant stand trivium or b4mv. dont think they will headline though. Inme will probably be there as well. and about 96 more bands i dont really like.

How can...

...BFMV be big enough to headline???

they can both

sell out brixton
but only just so touts wouldn't make any money outside

it's a tough one. no really big names this year.

WHERE'S OPETH???

looks like

they've ditched the indie day, then?

prodigy

could be classed as indie.
well, by some.
in comparision to the other "headliners" anyway.
fuck it, its a poor 3 anyway.

LOL at weezer last year.

I'd say

that would probably be The Prodigy's day.

NO WAY

are trivium or bfmv big enough to headline a festival

i wouldn't even give them second billing!!!

if you look at the article about this on NME.com

it says these are the first bands to be ANNOUNCED, not that any are headliners.

elsewhere it has been stated that

they are.
BUT, as I wrote (implied) in the article, c'est ne pas confirmed.

please to god

don't let my chemical romance or someone headline!!! I hate them ducks

it's gonna be

FALL OUT BOY

FUCK A DUCK!

I want Opeth.

me too

mikael is HAWT

as if

bullet and trivium are big enough to headline.. that's a joke

prodigy however will be ace

Trivium & Bullet aren't headlining!

Foo Fighters will.

naa not foos, it should be

RAMMSTEIN!

or failing that

Son of Dork, covering Rammstein songs.

An early April Fool joke??

I actually, mentally checked the date to see whether this was an early april fools joke!

Alas not. Surely Bullet aren't even worthy enough to play the festival AT ALL.

They did last year though
