Metal Bands for 2011

Not sure if this qualifies as metal (since we're apparently making an issue out of that) but how about How to Destroy Angels? Killer stuff and we'd prolly get to see Trent on a smaller stage if they were there. I'd say they should play late night but I think everyone should play late.

Not really metal either, more stoner rock, but what about Monster Magnet? They have a new album out in October

As well as Baroness went over on Thursday afternoon this year, we may be getting some of that. Wasn't The Sword on Thursday night in 08?

I seen it! What metal bands would be good for thurs night? Most of the ones I want to see like Meshuggah and Opeth are a bit too big name for thurs.

Is Destroy Destroy Destroy still a band? I haven't heard much about them lately.

and i randomly throw things out from time to time...

Black Sabbath.

obviously bigger than any of these other names, especially if Ozzy is rejoining.
the rumors say it wont happen for some time, so obviously it's not going to be 2011, but i could see Black Sabbath destroying a Saturday Headliner Spot. especially if there are actually going to release an album!

Opeth > Neurosis late night tent.

The whole world would collapse.

Yeah, some Neurosis would be pretty frickin' awesome. I like Lerxst's idea.

Hmmm... in the same slot that GWAR played this year? I could see that.

One of my all-time lifetime favorite shows was White Zombie and Tool... waaaaaaaay back in the day when Tool was promoting Undertow. /oldguybrag

First off, I would love this more than anything. Obsessed with everything Trent does and would die to see HDA on the farm.

However, No, they're definitely not metal.
And also, they aren't touring at all, so far. And I know trent was burnt out on touring, which is why he quit with NIN. But he did say he was open to doing some 'limited' touring.

"At the start of every tour we think this will be the last one. By the end we’re disappointed and we think, ‘Is this is?’ So we’ll carry on as long as we’re having fun. We’ll be back to tour this album, and after that we should be looking at a big resumé tour – an unashamed tour with all the greatest hits"

-Bruce Dickinson

so they're apparently going to tour in support of Final Frontier, then do another, basically a "Greatest Hits" Tour.

Bonnaroo should do everything neccessary to make this happen in 2012/2013

I put my pants on one leg at a time, just like you guys. But when my pants are on, I make gold records.

When i'm done with ya, you'll be wearing gold plated diapers.
