Is it too early to talk about Hellfest 2009?
NO WAY. First the festival is confirmed (no more problems with the direction of the city) for the 19/20/21 of June 2008 (not at the same time than the Graspop one more time... perfect!) AND I will be able to let you know who are the first confirmed bands the 27 of November 2008.
Actually I will even organize a Hellfest party this day in my city (Toulouse). So be ready for one more year of HellFest on Metal Storm  |

If I do not have to take any repeat-exams the week after that I'll probably be there as well.
I'm hoping for a killer line-up!!!! |
|
|
|
Auwtsh, kind of in the middle of my exam period. Won't be able to make it again this edition, I'm afraid.
Ah well, I still consider myself a lucky guy for having had the chance to go to Hellfest 2008. The whole thing was a blast. One for the memory books. |
|
|
|
| Great to know the dates. So I will take the week off around Hellfest so I can go again. 2007 was a blast and unfortunately had to miss the 2008 edition due to a freelance translation assignment. But health willing I will be present in 2009. |
|
|
|
Is it actually "Hellfest Summer Open Air" like it was in 2007? Because in 2008 they just changed everything to "Hellfest Open Air" in the logos instead.
Anyway. I am pretty much guaranteed to be there for the third year running. |

True Barry! It's fixed!
I heard some rumours about some names and if it's true, I can tell you that it WILL BE BIG 
Be sure that you'll get the 30 first names the night of the 27/11/08 (at the same hour than the different Hellfest Parties all around France). |

| Hopefully my exams will be all over by the time HellFest starts, so I might be able to join you all next year |
|
|
|
Unless something really unexpected happens, I don't see why I wouldn't be able to attend this year as well  |
|
|
|
LOL, it's funny how the entire attendance list consists of staffers only  |

Well because we're true! 
People should follow us instead of follow trends (Am I talking about the name of a festival which starts with W and finish by N ? ) |
|
|
|
Hellfest '09? why not 
I'll try and make. |
|
|
|
| Probably I'll be there again this year too. I'm curious to see the first bands names revealed. |

Not true, TR00 !!!
I think We'll be there again, Otto & me ! |
|
|
|
| 2008 edition was great! without a doubt the best lineup in any festival, that's why we choose this festival instead of wacken. If I was not so far away (México) I would go to the 2009 edition. Plus, french people are very cool! |

Sorry Sjuk (and Marcel ) but I promised that we will not say anything on Metal Storm before the real DDay which is thursday!
So please don't post anything which is not officially confirmed about it here thx you! and you'll get the 36 official first names at 21 (france time) in our news  |

Oh yes they did, though the last time they refused to come due to some law that made them unable to play as loud as they wanted (IMO, that was also a good opportunity to make a little drama). So they invited their French fans to come over and see them in Germany where they would be given free shirts to compensate.
I'm actually glad they'll be at HF, because otherwise I wouldn't have wanted to see them on a regular tour.
I'm buying my ticket (and DVD) today  |
|
|
|
| Ok, I knew the last thing, so I thought they never came to France because of the sound-law thing! |

| I'm actually looking forward to seeing Devildriver.. I used to love that band but never saw them live. I wouldn't go to a show especially for them now, so this is the perfect opportunity to see how they are live. |

How reliable is that Pollstar site? |
|
|

Pollstar is the "world's largest resource for international concert tour information".
Last year, I found other bands playing at Hellfest before their announcement on this website.
And Deicide is a logical choice for Hellfest staff... |

They might be the world's largest but I never heard of them before today.
But if they were spot on last year then why shouldn't they be spiot on now. Yes, Decide will fit Hellfest's programming though personally I am not too happy about them being included. I have seen them a shitload of times (ever since their debut till their latest album) and about 90% of the time they disappointed me as hell. |
|
|
|
Hoooly shit.. in order of my personal interest for the band from least interested to most interested: holyhell, epica, amon amarth, heaven and hell and the mighty manowar!!
i'm gonna try very very hard to go see this with you fellow MS-ers! |

My god )) super very well |

Yes, next friday we will have a new list!
I already know some names and I can tell you that it will kick our asses!
Wacken is already sold out, don't lose your time to try to find tickets on EBay, Hellfest is THE alternative, come with us!
Hoo and btw, I can tell you that I will be at HF for sure this year... I will let you know why later hehe  |

Oh for fuck sakes. Theres enough money flying around this continent and almost as big of a population, yet we can't seem to put together a metal festival thats a fraction of what you lucky Europeans get.
Fuck North America. |

| Well we can't seem to put together a metal festival! lol |

Stratovarius - Entombed - Amon Amarth - Parkway Drive - Moonsorrow -....
I'll try my best for such incredible participation. |

| I wasn't too excited about the first announced bands, but the line-up now is officially AWESOME. Definitely going to be there for the '09 edition. |
|
|
|
| Panzer's going for it again. And this time I'm bringing money and food. Ammo and fuel could prevent Panzer from being drunk after 6 beers. Everyone ready? |

6 beer hammering makes it cheap, stick to it!
I'm seriously considering attending after Pentagram got announced. Although I'm broke. And they will probably cancel. |
