Yessss! This year there are so many awesome bands playing. I think the Friday (Leeds) Main Stage is incredible - I mean, Metallica, Tenacious D, Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold Alexisonfire AND the awesomeness that is Mindless Self Indulgence? On one stage??? Wow. MSI deserve to be higher up the bill though. :-) Can't wait for Slipknot - never seen them before but their live shows are pretty well rated so should be gooooooood. I agree with thegreenvampire though - how do Plain White T's get such good line-up positions when they are quite frankly pants compared to others playing at lower positions. They got a near-headlining position at GIAN too, and there were TONS of great bands who deserved that more than they did. I can't believe Cancer Bats and Kids In Glass Houses didn't get on a bigger stage! That is unfair :-) I love Anti-Flag, who are playing Saturday (Leeds) I think? Good to see them getting a good line-up position for once. At GIAN they were on the tiny stage! My one complaint is WHY THE HELL ARE VAMPIRE WEEKEND HERE? I'm sorry, I know that lots of people like them, but they're kinda....rubbish :-)
