This is the goal for all festivals.
If they want to have in 2009 big big bands, this is necessary to earn much money this year.

My thoughts, in general, are adressed to the Fields of rock line up :
They've got lots of bands which play at Hellfest.

AIRBOURNE **
APOCALYPTICA **
ARCH ENEMY
BRING ME THE HORIZON
BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE
CAVALERA CONSPIRACY **
CHRIS CORNELL
DANKO JONES
DIMMU BORGIR **
DISTURBED
FINNTROLL
ICED EARTH **
JUDAS PRIEST
MADBALL **
MESHUGGAH **
MINISTRY **
MOTÖRHEAD **
ONE BULLET LEFT
OPETH **
RISE AGAINST
SEX PISTOLS
SICK OF IT ALL **
SONATA ARCTICA **

Cool. Well, im hoping to buy my ticket pretty soon, but i think i'm gunna end up going on my own! Be cool to know some people going too!

Actually, i think it might have been you who suggested Argon to me a while back!

haha, it may have been! although things didn't run perfectly smooth with them, they got the job done and it was certainly easier to just jump on a bus as apposed to a train to an airport or whatever

but anyway, as you can see there will be a whole bunch of us staff again - so there will be another Metal Storm flag flying this year too (among other things) - if you see that then come over and say hello!

Yes, they will be back ....

But they will not be the only big name of the next and last announcement!

Yes, one other big name will come! (and it will be great for the French Metalheads (who like them of course...)).

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, you mean KISS will be headlining? or Anthrax (the French especially like them because of the Anti-Social cover)? or will it be Iron Maiden (French have to love that band because Nicko used to drum in Trust)?

I hope not because PoS was boring as hell last year only being surpassed in the boring factor by Dream Theater.

I do, but that wasn't the problem last year
Both their sets were just boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring, nothing happening at all, inspired, etc etc

Well, POS live rocks! But it was not good last year at Hellfest that's right!

About the news, I will post a new flyer (the famous flyer of the Inferno) with new names tonight!

I got a bad news today though, one of the expected big names will not be there. Let's hope that they will find a big band to replace them...

I also think that Chris Cornell will be at Hellfest :

- He'll play at Fields of rock the same week end
- He is booked by Nous Productions for a date at "La cigale - Paris" on june 24th.

Maybe they lowered their price because the Fields Of Rock festival (where they were headlining one day) has been cancelled today due to ppor ticket sales.

Not even Iron Maiden on their current somewhere back in time tour? I would prefer them over Judas Priest, although I won't mind Judas Priest at all.

yep, really! I would love to see Iron Maiden as many times on this tour too - but I would still pick Judas Priest over any Iron Maiden set.
still.. I should get Iron Maiden at Wacken - I don't have anywhere I can see Judas Priest yet (unless I do end up at Download here)

and Angra have pulled out? that's really bad - they were one of the ones I was looking forward to most
