    i dunno slayer are the only band worth seeing for me....i will probably hit it though as i will be at Muse anyways...add Mastodon to the line up and they have a deal. Wasn't impressed in In Flames at all when they toured with Sepultura

    so what was Rock Am Ring like ????
    who did you see etc ....

    I don't actually think Mastodon would add much to that lineup at all, wasn't overly impressed with them last year..........I'm looking forward to seeing Lamb of God though, savage band, and I'd be interested in seeing if COB can change my mind live.......

    and where did you hear this wonderful rumour? considering a) the gig was only confirmed this morning by MCD and b) 8000 metal heads would be doing well to sell this gig out as we are meant to be pre-occupied with 6/6/6 related stuff (being evil and all that)

    Some great bands In Flames and Opeth had fantastic sets,
    i love the bloodhound gang so that was cool,
    deftones, AIC and G'n'R were all fairly ****e :(
    Metallica were supposed to of been amazing but in flames were playin so **** them,
    Highlight was meeting steve Harris in the airport on the way home :D

    Got my tickets today. It appears that CoB are way down the bill which sucks cos they deserve to be right up there near the top as opposed to In Flames.

    That lineup looks fantastic. I don't know Thine Eyes Blind but there's no stinkers elsewhere. Great stuff.

    Children Of Bodom and Lamb Of God sold it for me. I havn't gotten into Slayer properly yet (I'm ashamed to say) but I have plenty of time I guess. :D

    nice lineup but as we speak i'm chatting to a friend about how i'm all disillusioned with the run-of-the-millness of metal these days and why i probably wont be bothered with unholy alliance :o

    go to slayer.net... i was the whole day refreshing it and hearing the same 10 second clip... but either use a new browser or else clear your cache and the site should load completely new and you'll hear it all

    EDIT: your welcome :p

    it should be a kick ass gig, but if you look at the bands playin in a modern day context, Slayer havent had a good album since 1990, Lamb of God are metalcore, tho decent metalcore. In Flames have really fallen by the wayside over their last few releases, the new album is utterly terrible. as for Children of Bodom, i havent heard the new album, tho apparently its below par as well, tho ill judge that for myself. cant confess to know Thine Eyes Bleed at all well, but maybe what i brought up was along the lines of what your friend was saying!

    Speak for yourself mate. I think it is a great album. They put on a great show in the Ambassador too.
