Well, its been a little over 7 weeks since Bloodstock Open Air 2007 and you’d think the Bloodstock Team would have taken a little time out to rest and reflect on what a fantastic festival we were all part of in 2007. Well bollocks to that, we can rest when we’re dead. We got straight back into our metal office box and we’ve been hammering the phones speaking with bands Agents and Managers to secure an even bigger line -up for 2008.
With 3 bands announced already for next year including – ‘Dimmu Borgir’, ‘Moonsorrow’ and ‘Swallow The Sun’ we are closing in on a few more major announcements before Christmas. Have you heard any rumours… are they true ? Mmmmm….
