    I'm wondering would VH be a sub-headline? Hard to tell how popular they would be, I don't think they would headline, but given the ego's involved!

    If it's VH they will headline, no doubt about it, first UK appearance in god knows how long, even though it's an accident waiting to happen, an awful live band with no stamina or loyalty to ticket buying fans

    Happy enough seeing them in the O2 - not sure they're worth a plane journey.

    Was gonna be tough to be at the same level as last years headliners.

    Shall see what Saturday and Sunday bring sure.

    Just heard that, what a fcukin awful headliner, they sound EXACTLY the same live as in studio.

    Hybrid Theory is only 37mins long, will they play it then fcuk off and let a proper band play?

    Wonder will it be a bad year for festival headliners all round? I nearly expect Alter Bridge to be announced next.

    Copping did say there be no co-headlining bands. Seems odd to hold off on VH if they are playing. If that is the 3 days main bands, it'd be very easy not to go, even if it is only a small amount to base it on.

    Does anyone know if Download would be enjoyable on one's own? I've always wanted to go to Download, and this year seems as good as any, as I've wanted to see Aerosmith live for years, would love to see Hybrid Theory performed live by Linkin Park and would definitely pay to see any of the other bands announced so far live on their own, other than Rob Zombie. Anyway, all of my friends who listen to metal and would go with me are going to be busy for this weekend, so I've been considering bringing my dad, who would definitely enjoy Aerosmith and have some fun at the festival, but I also know if he comes he's not going to have as much energy as me and have to take breaks during the day, so I'll be left on my own for a good bit of the festival, would people still recommend going?

    Loads of people go on their own, if you sign up to the Download festival forums there's a thread about the 'camp loner' thing, and people who are going alone all camp together.

    Talking shite there, last years headliners were Maiden, Rammstein and Slipknot, of course this years was gonna be worse than that but getting worse? Last years was by far the strongest in recent memory

    Decided to try Alt-fest instead of Download this year and bought one of their early bird tickets...not sure I made the right choice now.
