No, there's tickets left, they were available on Ticketmaster this afternoon........standing ones anyway.......

Therapy? added to the GnR bill, but there's two stages (well a Marquee and a main stage) and Therapy? are headlining the 2nd stage, that might work out, but I doubt it'll work for Metallica with AIC and Stone Sour in the Marquee - can you imagine the scramble to get into AIC ??????? a rethink will be needed.......two more added to 2nd stage for Metallica, Wicked Wisdom and Living Things (don't know either).......

I'd say the second stage bands will be playing between set changes on the main stage. Third stage has been axed, or so it seems.

Have to say I'm pleased that they've expanded this into a mini-festival. I'd like to see In Flames and Killing Joke added... that's all really.

Killing Joke -chalk it down. They are going to have to move AIC though - so many people have bought tickets just to see these guys. They were the clencher for me. So if they are in the tent, then I am in that tent and nothing will stop me.

I have to admit - AIC are the only reason I'm going too and that includes mates of mine too - so i reckon it will be fun trying to get into the second stage area!!!

Its actually quite worrying if AIC are kept on the second stage. Where that Marquee will be situated, there is hardly any space, maybe 2000 max. And thats bein optimistic by me! maybe they shall come to their senses and change somethin

exactly the capacity I thought would be the very max, then I thought 1,000 to 1,500 more realistic - and that's just way too small, I'd say there'll be a big crowd for this with a lot of kids, but just cause they're kids doesn't mean they won't be in the tent............this is really gettin to me, will wait for the next update on the site I guess....

Mushy

Might have to start mass e-mailing Aiken site so they might actually listen! Would only look bad on them if they didnt listen and there was over-crowding and deaths there

psilocybe

Yes this seems like a really stupid idea. Will they just stop letting people in when it reaches capacity? I can see lots of very pissed off people standing outside the marquee. Or will they use an armband system? This will again leave many pissed off as it will mean all the kids who have been queuing all morning will get armbands and quite possibly **** off until Stone Sour are playing.

I'd just like to bring this to everyones attention

Does anyone know if Clown from Slipknot's band called To My Suprise are still playin? a while ago on the download.ie site they took their name down, but it still says they're playin on Aiken. I know a few days before the gig they'll put bands and times back up but I just wana know incase it might sell out.
