In the UK, the weekend of June 8th – 10th, will see the grounds of Donington Park shake as this year’s rock and metal festival will be an unforgettable one. Avenged Sevenfold, Guns N’ Roses and Ozzy Osbourne are all confirmed to headline this year’s Download Festival.
Friday will see Avenged Sevenfold take to the stage; even though the band aren’t releasing anything new this year, they’ll still continue to tour off their cortically acclaimed album ‘The Stage’. According to lead singer, M. Shaddows they are festival fit and their progressive rock sound will make for an astounding live set.
