Couldn't find another thread in search. I know this is early but the bands have started to be booked for next year and this year's lineup is pretty much finished. Ok keep these fairly realistic.. i.e. band orders should be about right and the festival shouldnt contain a bigger lineup than say what Reading Festival can get. This should be what you would aim for if you were to book this festival. This isn't my fave lineup but I think it would work well for download 2010:

I doubt they'd afford all 3 of those headliners but would be cool
a lot of those bands aren't my cup of tea though

Yeah I sort of agree... I can see it being a similar price to Tool, Metallica and Guns N Roses though.. and with a sell out this year looking likely they should be able to afford it.. especially if they increase the capacity for next year.

who knows what'll happen though eh
I have a feeling Rammstein will be one headliner though, what with a new album out later this year and a long overdue festival appearance here

Switch FOB with cohhed and Cambria and that would be an epic line-up

Megadeth and Metallica playing on the same stage as each other?
 
Never in a million years lol

Hmmm... yeah I agree.
I'm starting to think maybe AC/DC as well that's if Reading don't get them.
That would be one hell of a line up and I expect they can afford more expensive bands next year.

I just had a thought, what about Green Day? Or do you think they're too much of a 'Reading' band?

Nah I agree with you there....
 
They're a band that deserve the head-lining position :)
They would fit very well at Download or Reading/Leeds... just not Blodstock :P

And they would sell a hell of a lot tickets, personally I'm suprised they are not playing Reading this year.

Yeah
 
If their new album release date was on the 15.04.09 instead of 15.05.09 (today) then I think they would have played Reading/Leeds

Great line up  But seriously, ACDC and Brand New clash? Hate you 

Anybody think Metallica are due for some time out soon..? When was the last year they didn't tour? 05?

I'd be happy as Larry with it though

Metallica
Megadeth
The Almighty
Diamond Head

Well the fact the two bands are getting on atm means it could happen.. Dave Mustaine was even invited to Metallica's hall of fame induction.. surprised you havent heard anything bout this it's been pretty big news

I'm having trouble deciding whether they will do Reading, V, Sonisphere or Download next year... if they do Download then they will prob do Saturday with Tallica or AC/DC for Sunday (most likely Tallica)

the clash would annoy me also haha.. but no way I would miss Brand New

i'd definitely be attending next year with that lineup

I did hear....
 
Hetfield and Lars wanted him to attend, but him and Kirk hate ach other dont they?
 
Mustaine was pissed off with him coz he took his job, and Kirk is pissed off wih him because Mustaine can play better than him lol

haha there is no way they could afford all those headliners and big names!
 
would be a pretty good line up though! definitely like the idea of rammstein headlining next year!
