Rock & Metal Forum Awards 2012 - Disappointment of the Year

And the winner is: The cancellation of Sonisphere. Definitely a big blow to those who normally attend. And it had an indirect affect on other gigs. I had my ticket for Mastodon and Gojira bought, but it was cancelled due to Sonisphere not happening. Not nice to see big festivals like this cancelling!

I think it had a good lineup. Like the Sunday had FNM, Mastodon, Andrew WK. Pity its not happening, really enjoyed my trip there in 2011.

Line up was shocking. Deserved to be cancelled, as reflected by ticket sales. They probably could have gotten away with the headliners but the undercard was shocking. Hope some big headliners give them a second chance, would like to see the festival return in 2014.
