Full Download festival line-up confirmed

The full list of support acts for the Download Festival in the RDS has been confirmed.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 03 May 2006

The hard rock action kicks off on June 9 when Guns N’ Roses are joined by Bullet For My Valentine and To My Surprise.

After 48 hours recovery time, June 11 finds Korn, Avenged Sevenfold, Stone Sour, Alice In Chains, Bloodsimple and Ten Years warming the moshpit up for the mighty Metallica.

Tickets for both shows are still available, but shifting fast.

If you’re still standing after that little lot, Down do their supergroup thing in the Temple Bar Music Centre on June 13.

Featuring assorted members of Pantera, Corrision Of Conformity, Crowbar and EyehateGod, they’ll be plugging their imaginatively titled Down II opus.
