[Dolamite S. Biffle]

You have got to be fucking kidding me this is the biggest joke of a lineup that $haron could have came up with. They go from having Maiden and Priest and some other good bands over the last couple of years to like 5 good bands. I just cant believe this.

Main Stage:

OZZY OSBOURNE
SYSTEM OF A DOWN
DISTURBED
TBA**
HATEBREED
LACUNA COIL

**Major main-stage band to be announced on May 23

Second Stage:

BLACK LABEL SOCIETY
ATREYU
UNEARTH
BLEEDING THROUGH
NORMA JEAN

Second Stage (rotating):

A LIFE ONCE LOST
STRAPPING YOUNG LAD
THE RED CHORD
FULL BLOWN CHAOS
WALLS OF JERICHO
ALL THAT REMAINS
BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME

Edit: I found the tour dates, and once again are you fucking kidding me Kansas gets skipped the last two years the years that I wanted to go the most. Then we get this piece of fucking garbage fest, DDDDDDDDAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTT!!!! Maiden and Priest are two bands that I love and havent seen.

How many of those bands paid to be on the tour??? I'm just curious. I only went to Ozzfest 05 because of the mighty Maiden. Looks like Metalblade roster is doing well..............

 

[actordude]

Who cares?.....HotTopicfest......errrrr......Ozzfest.... is so far down the chain of good metal festivals its almost not even worth mentioning.

[Azrael LenGraden]

I wouldnt waste my time or money.

 

[EvilGrit]

Pretty lame. Five bands tops that I would want to see.

 

[Bryan316]

I will not attend.

 

[Curufin]

Holy shit that's the best lineup yet I am SO there

 

[Jibrille]

So Strapping Young Lad will get a nice long 20 minute set. Yah!!!!!

Wait a sec.....

 

[woosta]

SYL and Lacuna are the only 2 worth a squirt of piss. This is the worst lineup, IMO, since year #1.

I'm with you dude. I just saw Disturbed at a club here in Phoenix and they rocked mightily.

I'd go for those bands, epecially with the new Lacuna coming out.

Then again, I'm now the creepy old guy and most of these shows, so that crowd doesn't exactly appeal to me. Probably because I realize I'm the old dude looking at under age ass and cans.

Sigh. Fuck time. Fuck time right in it's big, gay ass.

[Hajeka]

Shit line up but I love Ozzy and Lacuna..

 

[Entropiastrife]

SYL and Lacuna are the only 2 worth a squirt of piss. This is the worst lineup, IMO, since year #1.

hey, the red chord and between the buried and me are decent acts as well

really sad how 3/4 of the good bands are on second stage which means they have to PAY to get 20 minute sets on the tour, honestly I dont know why strapping are lowering themselves

[Mephistopheles]

Worst line up ever + SYL

It really is bull shit that SYL are even playing that low on the list.

 

[4acidbath4]

The mystery band is BODY COUNT (Ice-T fronted metal band)

 

[Jurakan]

There are very few good bands in the lineup.

So, overal rating:

uke:

 

[Entropiastrife]

between the buried and me have a lot of prog elements to their music, some of it even reminds of me of dream theater, you guys shouldnt overlook them

 

[Regor]

Holy Shit!

Yeah yeah, the line-up sucks. But Walls of Jericho? If that's the same band I'm thinking of, I used to work at GC Canton with the bald headed guitarist. I saw them tour with Fear Factory prolly a year ago. But that's cool for them!
