    if this is true then the rumoured line up i think being Foos, Rage and Metallica would be fucking awesome. Thats about the strongest rumoured headliners ever. I really hope this is true as it would rule!

    they would be three incredible headliners, would be nice to see Leeds play some more rock and less generic indie

    Rock music excites me more than any other music. I listen to a lot of singers. But I have a special love for Foo Fighters band. Their style has really made its way to my heart and without doubt to a lot of other Rock music. Unfortunately, I’ve a chance to watch them on stage only once because tickets are always pricy. I’ve just discovered a site to compare ticket prices for free and I find it something important because this way I can look for the cheapest price offered. You may need to use it:

    If it is Foo’s RATM and Metallica playing this year i think it could be the best festival ever!

    Hey! How amazing would that be if Foo’s played…
    It would be really amazing to have bands like them on the bill…
    I have, unfortunately, heard that although MetallicA and RATM are headlining, that the Killers *hangs head and tuts* are headlining the other day…
    Well, there’s no accounting for taste right??

    thanks for the comment. I sincerely doubt that the foo fighters will be there this year. If they played i think it would have been a headline slot and they, like you know, are all taken!

    thanks for the comment though!
