Graspop 2005 - Megadeth confirmed + last news
GMM 2005 : Press Release 6 - Wednesday 07 April 2005
GRASPOP METAL MEETING
Festivalpark, DESSEL - Friday 24, Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 June 2005
ALMOST THERE...
The line-up for the 10th edition of the Graspop Metal Meeting is almost complete.
Just eight slots remain to be filled.
Unfortunately there are also a few cancellations: CHIMAIRA and BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE won't be coming to Graspop this year.
The band offer their sincere apologies. They are part of the 'Sounds of the Underground' tour in America and as the starting date of this tour has been moved forward to 25 June, they had no choice but to cancel their Graspop gig.
SUICIDAL TENDENCIES also have to cancel. Singer Mike Muir has been having serious health problems and Suicidal are forced to postpone the entire summer tour. Get well soon Mike!
Good news from the MADBALL camp. They have come back on their decision to cancel and have reconfirmed their appearance at this year's festival.
MEGADETH is another name that's been circulating quite a bit and? we are finally able to add Megadeth to the bill. The band looked to be dead and buried in 2002 when Dave Mustaine suffered a severe arm injury, but three years later Megadeth are alive and kicking and the old sound is back.
SKITSOY, the band around former Channel Zero lead man Franky De Smet-Vandamme, will also be playing Graspop this year.
Have also been confirmed :TERROR, AMEN, PRO-PAIN DRAGON FORCE, GOREFEST, PETER PAN SPEEDROCK and SIRENIA
