According to the The Metal Report, the two most anticipated summer tours for US hard rock and metal fans for 2008 are taking shape. From the creators of the Vans-Warped tour, we will see the debut of the Rockstar Mayhem tour, sponsored by Rockstar Energy drink which will compete against metal juggernaut, Ozzfest.

The Metal Report can confirm that SLIPKNOT, DISTURBED, and 5 FINGER DEATH PUNCH will in fact be apart of the Rockstar Mayhem tour line up.

As for Ozzfest, OZZY OSBOURNE stated he will headline each show with his solo band, featuring legendary guitarist ZAKK WYLDE. JUDAS PRIEST has been rumored to co-headline in 2008, however new rumors are now suggesting the band may tour with HEAVEN & HELL instead of Ozzfest. More news as it develops.

I cant believe slipknot will be on tour again soon. it would be so wicked if the ozzfest came to Canada. Slipknot rules. Ozzy Rules. but those other bands suck so much ass.

Ozzfest needs to book some decent bands if Im gonna go. I would much rater pay for some quality bands, than go and see a bunch of crappy bands. My money is gonna go to the rockstar energy tour. I dont think Judas Priest can make me change my mind about Ozzfest and neither will Ozzy. They need some big name bands,

imgoin to both. Rockstar Mayhem for Dragonforce, Machinehead and Ozzfest coz its a tradition in my house. Rockstar took two of Ozzfests likely headliners (Under ozzy of course) but there are other, much better bands that could fill that slot.
