Bloodstock Open Air 2011

[D.Ingram]

There're only two reasons I'm posting this;

1. We don't have a BOA 2011 thread yet as far as I know
2. Fucking CORONER just announced their ONLY UK date of 2011

So far we've got Triptykon, Rhapsody of Fire, Lawnmower Deth, Morbid Angel, Angelwitch, fucking Coroner amongst a few others that I don't remember/give a fuck about. At first I wasn't so sure about the lineup, but now? 'm stoked. Please excuse me while I put on my excited fanboy hat...

Pretty meh lineup imo, but I'll still probably go

I'm just buying a Friday ticket, that's my festival for this year.

BOA's a 'if I have enough cash' yin atm until they announce something that blows my mind.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

Absolute bullshit unfortunately. Devy never really plays SYL shit live, never mind speak of a SYL reunion.

Indeed.

I'm not too sure if I want to pay so much for a ticket, when Hellfest looks infinitely better. If they can get a lineup which justifies the price, I'll certainly go

 

[Vedicardi]

Ah fuck I want to see Angel Witch

 

[D.Ingram]

Strapping Young Lad? In my fucking dreams, that'll never happen

 

[Keenan]

I wanna see Angel Witch.

AT THE GATES WAS ANNOUNCED.





At The Gates has been confirmed to perform at the 2011 edition of the Bloodstock Open Air Festival. "We had such a blast during the 2008 reunion that we decided to do some more shows." states drummer Adrian Erlandsson. He continues, "We had an amazing gig at Bloodstock in 2008 and are really looking forward to playing there again." The Bloodstock Open Air organizers commented:

"One of the most influential metal bands of the last 20 years, At The Gates made a permanent mark after 1995?s 'Slaughter Of The Soul' album captured the imaginations of metal heads the world over. Taking the aggression of death metal and lacing it heavily with melody, the album was released to huge critical acclaim - including a Swedish Grammy nomination - and At The Gates looked set to take the world by storm. However disbanding in 1996 meant the next chapter was never written.

The 12 years that passed left hundreds of thousands of fans hoping that one day they would get to see their heroes again."Their wish came true and At The Gates reunion was one of the summer festival highlights across Europe in 2008. Now the band return for an exclusive appearance, and Bloodstock is honoured to welcome them back for what is bound to be an unforgettable set at Catton Hall."

Oh my

 

[D.Ingram]

Can you blame me?

Don't give a fuck about the ATG announcement, smells like cash-in to me... especially since BOA'08 was supposed to be their last ever UK performance.

 

[Covet Chaos]

Despite the horrid line-up I'm going.

 

[D.Ingram]

Rapes and japes abound!

 

[Covet Chaos]

I'm probably going VIP for free... though I'm buying a ticket as a back up.

 

[D.Ingram]

Join my camp, naked drunk twister slip 'n' slides

 

[Keenan]

Sounds..... Fun.
