…Aerosmith and Rage Against The Machine.
Was anyone else expecting that? We’d be lying if we said it came as a surprise to us. We’re sure that all sorts of people are voicing meaningless opinions over on Twitter right now as we speak. Or the Download Festival forums, if they haven’t crashed under the sheer weight of internet bitching that such announcements bring in their wake. Ho hum.
The next announcement – of five more bands – is due in the early hours of this morning, at around half past Midnight. We’re sure if your web connection doesn’t load fast enough to give you the news, it’ll also all be announced on the Radio 1 Rock Show. Which to be honest, we kinda hope you’d been planning to tune in to anyway.
Oh, and FYI – in case you missed us breaking the story on Friday night, we exclusively broke the news that Dillinger Escape Plan will also be at Download Festival 2010. Wonder if they’ll be in the next announcement?

I still haven’t been back to Download since the first year, which I really did enjoy.
I guess I am getting picking, or perhaps too old, but Watching a line up that I saw 15 years ago seems a bit of a non-event.
Especially when Soundgarden get added to the bill at the end of March. Ooops, was I not meant to say that?

sign o the times i think. no more collosal bands in this age now hence we have to turn to the old crew.

Aerosmith will be EPIC as Sunday headliners…
I saw them in Hyde Park a few years ago and they still smash it live!
