Sonisphere headliners leaked – Faith No More and Queen…fronted by Adam Lambert?!? **UPDATED**www.thrashhits.com/2012/02/sonisphere-headliners-leasked-faith-no-more-and-queen-fronted-by-adam-lambert/Those of you following us on Twitter will have heard us mention earlier this week that we’d “just heard a festival headliner “rumour” so mental it has blown my mind. GOBSMACKED“…well, it seems The Daily Star have gone and blown all our secrets out of the water – today they confirmed that this year’s Sonisphere Festival headliners in the UK will be Faith no More and Queen….fronted by Adam Lambert. more... Ok, here we go again.... round three.... ;D IF they have already signed the deal, it would kinda make sense to make it official, don't you think? But, just on a PR/promo POV maybe it's better to let the media speculate. BTW. NoAngel, I think you owe me a new laptop... or at least a blowdryer, so that I can fix my keyboard... Hilarious essay today! ;D While I think everyone has different level of sensibility and I respect how they handle their fandom issues, I'm pretty much the same page as you are, Nica. LOL. So, I've emailed & gifted the BTIKM pretty much all over, sent emails to my relatives and friends of both the Leno & Ellen performances, just to keep them informed. They are free to ignore or delete my messages, but some have fallen down the rabbit hole. Resistance is futile. Thanks, Chapf, perfect smiley!

Anyone watch the half time show with Madonna? :D I'm all for great artists going out there with not a lot of 'ginger bread' gimmicks and rocking it out with their band, interacting with the audience and singing their faces off. JMHO

I would still say there is not confirmation at this point. Not saying it isn't in negotiation but until either the festival, Queen, or Adam give an official confirmation it is still nothing more than rumor. This type of thing happens all the time with these festivals. Once even the head of Glastonbury had supposedly confirmed U2 would be headlining and yet it turned out to be false. That being said the first rumors of Adam's Maxidrome performance leaked months before the event and were denied by both the festival organizers and Adam's people yet months later he was announced as a performer.
It is even possible that the festival organizers deliberately leak potential performers in order to gauge whether they will be a significant draw and often to encourage the bands in question to say yes when they approach them. Who knows what is going on behind the scenes but we DO know that there are negotiations of some sort in progress.
The good news is that the longer this is drawn out the better it is for Adam right now in terms of press because he is getting a LOT of press coverage out of it and it will draw attention both to his new music and to the EMA footage which is a total WIN WIN for him. I find it even more interesting that no one seems to have gotten a comment from either Brian or Roger about this.

Madonna half time big and showy she out did Gaga. Vocals so so new song sounds like one of the Disney kids singing.
Adam gorgeous as ususal looks like he has been on vacation not a grueling press trip for the Album.
