lol cheers for that man, well I wouldnt go as far as trashing all the COB merch that I have, I do love the band, I'd say they're one of those bands that are the best to walk the planet, the problem is they're now stooping to a new low, future bodom releases may not be the same, and all those pre teen fans who love slipknot will get involved with cob's work, urgh, makes me sick. Extreme/Scandinavian Metal should NOT be associated with nu metal at all...

I have no feelings about Slipknot, one way or the other. I've been a fan of Machine Head for years; I'll go to as many of the UK dates as I can, even if Bodom only get 30 minutes or whatever, to support the band I love - COB. They've put in the time over the last 10 years and if this tour is where they want to go next, that's fine by me.

Thats if they get to any of the gigs in one piece!!!!
Machine Head guitarist Phil Demmel collapsed on stage during the band's set in Nissan Pavilion in Bristow, Virginia last night (August 17).
Demmel had been complaining of feeling light headed throughout the show, and passed out during the second-to-last song due to severe dehydration.
"That was a scary moment for all of us," said MH drummer Dave McClain. "Seeing your friend collapse like that is something that nobody wants to experience."
However Demmel is expected to make a full recovery and will rejoin his bandmates for the final date of the Rockstar Mayhem tour on Tuesday, August 19 at the Darien Lake Performing Arts Center, New York.
"He's doing much better now," adds McClain. "and is taking it easy on the bus."
SLIPKNOT Drummer Breaks Ankle; European Festival Appearances Cancelled - Aug. 20, 2008
SLIPKNOT has released the following statement:
"It is with huge regret and disappointment that we have been forced to cancel our imminent European festival appearances at Leeds, Reading, 2 Days a Week, Area 4, as well as exclusive performances for MTV Europe and Virgin TV. The other night, Joey Jordison [drums] broke his ankle and doctors have advised Joey to stay off his leg for 4-6 weeks to prevent further injury or permanent and more serious damage.
"We know you will be hugely disappointed and so are we. Canceling shows is never an easy decision and we apologize to all our fans, friends and family for not being there to throw down with you. We will be back in Europe this November and can't wait to see you all then."

This UK dates are just a huge pile of bullshit. London Shows during the week, no single show on a saturday 
so looks like no chance for me to travel to one of these shows. i wanna see machine head in the uk again, last year in birmingham was awesome and i'm sure the bodom shows will also rock more in uk than here in fuckin switzerland where we have probably the most retarded crowds in the whole world

Yep the shows in Hamburg and Saarbrücken are CoB headlining and Austria's "The Sorrow" will support them at these two gigs

Made my day, but irony agreed, You're hopelessly dumb dude.
That's a die hard fan?
Actually I supose that the only reason why I'm not going is because they're not coming to Spain and I can't afford going to France/UK for the gig.Yes, you get an hour and a half of Bodom instead of 30 min and you don't get Machine Head too.
Seriously, where the fuck do you get the money to afford so many trips around the world folllowing COB and also coping with everyday stuff?
