Motorhead played under Slayer and Slipknot, Megadeth played under Godsmack and Disturbed


Its just business

If they get the Motorhead spot, then we'd better load the truck a lot faster this year

Also let's not forget Trespass America, if that happens again it affects Mayhem and some of the rumors

Deftones played before FFDP at the Heavy TO and MTL festivals last summer. FFDP headlines over them on a tour if it happens.

Did that have anything to do with Motorhead cutting Overkill from their set towards the end of the tour? I was sad when they didn't play it in Mansfield.

This, also there is no way 5FDP goes from headlining a tour like Trespass to taking a low slot here(also only way I see them doing a third run is coheadlining at the very least)


Just checked the Mayhem boards for lulz and oh boy, apparently despite Hatebreed saying they aren't playing there's folks claiming they're a lock

Except they said Big US summer tour, which that is not


and if they do Mayhem it wouldn't be announced yet

No, I mean loading the trucks up from second stage - those of us working out in the festival area couldn't call it a night and go watch the bands on main stage until our trucks were loaded and off to the next show. Usually we'd finish up about halfway through Motorhead's set. I'm not sure why they didn't play it that night, they played it pretty much every night. There must have been a time crunch or one of the guys wasn't feeling up to it. That wasn't a particularly hot show, but it was third to last for the tour, so they may have been a bit wiped out.

So are you the metal blade tent again this year?
