[stuh84]

I was considering it, but my time off from work this year is limited (parents going on holiday, I have to stick around for the dog, because I will not let them put him in kennels while they go away, poor little thing), although besides FNM, most of the bands I'd want to see, I've already seen before anyway so I'm not too downhearted.

Although Journey would be awesome

 

[Mattayus]

I haven't been since 2003

But to be fair, there have been some SHIT years since then This one is probably the best since. But alas, no moneh!

 

[Æxitosus]

you had to say meshuggah would be there...

 

[darbdavys]

I'd be there, if I lived closer
But planning to go to Progressive Nation, can't miss Opeth+DT and Stockholm

[Thin_Ice_77]

I'm going. Mostly for Architects, Killswitch and Parkway Drive (who you didn't mention ). I have no particular interest in seeing anyone else.

I only want to see the breakdown for Romance is Dead, I don't care for their other songs.

that's no excuse!

at Metal Camp last year I met some Australian dudes who were doing the metal festival rounds and they went to Hellfest, Wacken, Bloodstock, Download and Metal Camp! this one guy Luke was really cool actually spent a while hanging out.

I like Australian people, they're better than English people.

Neither do I, I seen them at DL in 2007 as well, they were awesomeee. Third time seeing them at this years festival.

 

[AeonSolus]

where they? then nevermind my ignorance, i didn't knew DT was a DL regular , is just that to me DL is a Really Heavy music fest, at least for what i've seen through youtube, also remember i'm thousands miles away from it.

Not really a "really heavy" music fest, more a kind of general rock/metal fest and everything in between.

 

[stuh84]

Journey and ZZ Top are as heavy as you can get man!

"So cry me a FUCKING river, bitch!"

As you're an Architects fan, what do you think of Hollow Crown?

I'm a big Architects fan, I like Hollow Crown, I really like the stuff they did for Nightmares though, I think the re-recorded version of To The Death was outstanding.
