That's a good list so far. They still need better bands I think

Thats not a great line up imo. Didn't Lostprophets headline this last year?

They sure did. The line up was better last year. The Offspring, Judas Priest, Lostprophets, Bullet For My Valenting, Jimmy Eat World, Motorhead, Disturbed, HIM, and so on..

That list lost any credibility with the addition of Dragonforce.

I have no idea. There are other bands who deserve to headline more than they do.

Still a lot of time left though for more bands to be confirmed, I do agree that there were some better bands last year but if the list continues to be bring out good bands then it could be just as good.

Nothing really interests me from that list.

Not really a fan of anyone on there. Especially DragonForce.

God, makes me ashamed to be British when the Americans have festivals like Bamboozle and we have shitty little GIAN & Download.

Faith No More being added is great. I still don't think I'll be going. I might check out the day ticket prices nearer the time.

I'll probably go just for the day FNM are playing - I've been wishing they'd get back together for such a long time now but if it hadn't of been for them playing, I'd never consider going to this

Reading's the only festival worth going to.

how much is this festival?

Anderson

It'll probably work out about £150 for the weekend. I'd love to see FNM again as they were awesome last time I saw them. A smaller venue would be preferable, but the local paper is reporting that Download's their only UK show.
