[vanrad]

lol - it maybe £4.99 each way, but the beer ain't cheap!

Ah, shame the rest of the line-up isn't my cup of tea, else I'd be tempted by that.

At least it means they're booking summer festival appearances, so I have my fingers crossed for Download..

[burgerrock]

Not such a hardship to go without beer for a couple of days - much easier to remember the gig afterwards

A friend of me told me once, that a party whitout beer is false fun

I once went without beer for a week, hated it, was the worst week of my life.

No sorry, it was a wank not beer.

Be good if they played Reading too as I've already got my ticket for this

[Rancidpunk_76]

Definately! I got my ticket in the pre-sale last year so here's hoping.......

Me too, although I may need to shift them closer to the date 'cos my friend wants us to go to Leeds with her for her 30th - a fact she shared with me about five minutes after I'd just spent severeal hundred quid on Reading tickets.

More bands have been announced..

[john v.]

six new bands confirmed.

[Andy Santiago]

Not a bad line-up really, Yorkshires premier miserablists My Dying Bride and a Rammstein tribute act too. Not sure I can justify a trip to Norway for that though.
If I was going to a fest in Norway it would be Inferno or Hole In The Sky.
