GUNS N' ROSES, ALICE IN CHAINS To Play Longer Sets At GRASPOP; Live Video Feed Available
- June 24, 2006
|
|
The organizers of Belgium's Graspop Metal Meeting — which is taking place June 23-25 in Dessel — have posted the following message on the festival's official web site: "Last week, when Graspop was informed that KORN would be cancelling their European tour, the search for a worthy replacement was underway within hours. Unfortunately it's next to impossible to find a band of the same calibre as KORN on such short notice. Graspop negotiated with TOOL, DEFTONES, LIFE OF AGONY and MACHINE HEAD, but none of these bands were able to confirm their visit to GMM2006. As a result, GUNS N' ROSES will take the stage a bit sooner and play a longer set! Other bands like MY DYING BRIDE and ALICE IN CHAINS will also play a slightly longer set." As previously reported, some of the Graspop Metal Meeting performances are currently available for viewing online a live Internet video stream at this location ( BLOODSIMPLE have just left the stage). Graspop Metal Meeting remaining performances: Saturday, June 24: GUNS N' ROSES SOULFLY ALICE IN CHAINS STONE SOUR OPETH MY DYING BRIDE DEATH ANGEL AVENGED SEVENFOLD JON OLIVA'S PAIN ILL NINO OBITUARY THE NEW YORK DOLLS NILE BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE ANCIENT RITES THE DATSUNS AKERCOCKE CALIBAN"Tribute To Monsters Of Rock" NUTELLICA PURPLE STRANGERS OZZY OZZ UP THE IRONS ACTION IN DC Sunday, June 25: MOTÖRHEAD SAXON HELLOWEEN IN FLAMES CRADLE OF FILTH ARCH ENEMY AFTER FOREVER EXODUS ARMORED SAINT AGNOSTIC FRONT DEVILDRIVER AS I LAY DYING DRAGONFORCE BEYOND FEAR IGNITE ENTHRONED ENSIFERUM INQUEST MACHINE MENThe complete running order (including show times) can be found at this location.

How fucked up is that.
Look at Marquee1: Obituary then Nile then My Dying Bride then Opeth.
That's incredible, though they aren't even going to show 1 of these bands :S

The USA will have unbelievable festivals like this. Instead we have fuckin Gwen Stepahnie, Black Eyed Peas, and other girl power crap. Not to mention (c)rap and so-called country. All of these, of course, who members suck so bad that they can't write their own songs. History says it all. Elvis wrote about 1% of his songs. The Beatles wrote about 99% of their songs. Alright, i'll stop bitching. Just give us a European style festival. Hell, i'll take a third!
