90's grunge you say. Soundgarden and AIC would be awesome to add. Here's hoping.

Where did you get this announcement? FB?

yeah facebook. https://www.facebook.com/pnrockfest

 

[Binary Code]

Is there any good artist for the White Night (Montréal en lumière?)

 

[MXD]

yeah facebook. https://www.facebook.com/pnrockfest

Yeah, it was on the "other group"

 

[Canadian_Brewtality]

Sounds like the Heavy Montreal organizers went all out this time.

Metallica is guaranteed money. The supporting cast wont be as important as other years.
Metallica alone sold out 2 BC shows 4 years ago.

Plus it seems lamb of God will be there as well.

Would love Soundgarden. Heres hopin

 

[CreamOfTheCrop]

Count me in if Metallica is there.
It will never be as good as the Abraham Plaines show

30-40k fans on the site will be painful

I go to heavy every year and while foo fighters aren't that appealing they are more interesting to me than kiss, Korn and A7X to be honest. Even someone like Alice in chains would be preferred, throw in some twisted sister for a flash back.

I don't mind the rock addition if it cuts back on some of the bland garbage "core" bands. Airborne is a rock band and they really had a great stage performance when they played.

Bring me some Stoner rock though, Vista chino, clutch, witchcraft and fu manchu would be solid.

I'm due for a Slayer and Motorhead return & would love to see one of LOGs 2 festival appearances be here, make up for the last time (calling for high on fire for the same reason).

Calling for more of an across the pond flair also, bring me some enslaved, behemoth, alestorm, kreator, destruction, immortal, candlemass, morbid angel, ghost, orange goblin, etc.

And more Canadians, eh. Bring back 3 inches and get bison Bc and aniients here!

 

[Tarasenko]

If Metallica is there, watch out Parc Jean-Drapeau, you'll be full in a matter of time.

OT: Unibroue WAS some really high quality beer, it not really anymore, or their quality standards dropped a lot since it was bought by Sleeman. My Maudite doesn't taste the same as my Maudite tasted back in 2006. It is still very good, but far from what it was.

I'm not a big Lamb of God fan...

But I always really appreciated their shows.

I'm so sad that I missed Kreator man.. I'd love to see them.

Yeah, thats good... But Sleeman bought Unibroue in 2004, so you're taste buds are just playing you tricks.

Sapporo bought Sleeman in 2006.

Blanche the chambly won prizes each year since 2009. You're just trying too hard to be a hipster now.
