Says an awful lot about the bookers when Killing_time has a far better lineup idea than them.

This lineup would be fucking ace.

[Motörbastard]

Babymetal?

I put a "suggested" line-up on wikipedia page before any bands were announced, went like this (RJD stage only):

So far, no matches.

Get rid of Volbeat and Rammstein and I'd go to that.

You've spent ages trying to argue that Hypocrisy are big enough to be sub-headliners, but then you've put them in 3rd place!

Good line up, particularly Swallow The Sun, Deafheaven, Kylesa and Ghost Brigade, but Satyricon are cack nowadays, get some good black metal like Marduk in there instead.

Killing_time's main stage lineup looks pretty grim for me, with only perhaps 4 bands I'd want to watch, and the Sophie lineup doesn't look much better. On balance, I'd much rather go to i0th's festival, which only has 3 bands I don't want to see. It'd be commercial suicide for the festival, but personally I'd love it!

[i0th]

Get rid of Volbeat and Rammstein and I'd go to that.

I'll make sure there's something you like on the Sophie stage at those times

[Ensorcelled]

Get rid of Vicky and hire OP, I say.

[Smerphy]

Get rid of Vicky and hire OP, I say.

Surprised to see someone actually complimenting KT's taste in music.

[CelestialWishDaniel]

I can't see many pleasant things happening with Babymetal playing directly after Sodom and Swallow The Sun, haha! i0ths line-up would be a dream come true for me, though, the idea of Hansi Kursch appearing in 2 bands on the trot with a possible guest appearance in Van Canto's slot does things to me that I probably can't mention on an online forum <___<

[Tet]

RJD
Within Temptation*
Turisas*
Opeth*

Much as I love them and think they're a far superior live act, Turisas simply aren't big enough to get a slot above Opeth in the UK in 2015.

[Slev]

RJD
Within Temptation*
Turisas*
Opeth*

Much as I love them and think they're a far superior live act, Turisas simply aren't big enough to get a slot above Opeth in the UK in 2015.

Lamentably, I can only go by their reletive popularity amingst my peer group. Turisas are far more popular in the local metal community.

Obviusly, such things can be swapped.

What are the asterisks for?
