Friday is pretty decent for me and Sunday is excellent. Saturday is slim pickings, Behemoth and Sylosis are my only main stage bands. Cattle Decapitation and Ramage Inc on Sophie stage add a couple more but still not great. Saturday will be a mix of VIP bar/Lemmy's bar and the New Blood stage.

I will be in the Sophie tent for the Crawling and Raised by Owls.

Might check out Necrogobilikon depending on how pissed I am by that point!

Hoots! Unleash the Unicorns on thee!

In all seriousness, I get why some folk don't like them. But as I live across the River Forth from Fife I can't help but love their songs (silly as they are)

Skindred - one trick pony and how they are so high on the bill is a joke.

Also detest Hatebreed (will be in the VIP bar for that one) and Unleash the Archers (gave them a listen as folk were going daft about them, oh christ no).

Most folk seem to use the official Facebook/Twitter pages or other social media these days. I still like message boards, but I'm old!

Hell yes- Devin Townsend, Judas Priest, Behemoth, Saxon, Cattle Decapitation, Sacred Reich, Vio-lence, Dark Tranquility, Gloryhammer, Orange Goblin Will probably see- Diamond Head, Anselmo, Paradise Lost, Memoriam, Green Lung, Night Flight Orchestra, Ramage Inc Fuck no- Life of Agony, Jinjer, Skindr...

Yes please, would be great in the Sophie tent

BLOODYWOOD, CATTLE DECAPITATION will Headline two of the nights on Sophie stage. BOSSK, GREEN LUNG , RAMAGE INC and MEMORIAM also added to the Sophie Lancaster Stage

3 out of 3 for me with the headliners for next year.

Pretty damn happy the way this is shaping up.

Oh Jesus fuck, you had to go and say that If I never see them again it will be far too soon.

Had a listen to various LOA albums last night. I don't get what the fuss is about and River Runs Red is totally average. Paradise Lost I will now have seen 5 times, either as a support act or on a festival bill. Not a band I ever want to see through choice. Will avoid them. Pantera tribute act - no ...

Only Diamond Head for me from that announcement.

Not interested in an Anselmo fronted Pantera tribute act, Pantera died with Dimebag and Vinnie. I saw Pantera back in the day and will avoid this like the plague.
