This is where you can discuss who you want and why.

Personally I would like to see Iron Maiden headlining. They have previously headlined in 2003 and 2007, so this would be another 4 years after their last appearance at Download. 

Iron Maiden is one of my favourite bands and I know it's the favourite band of many other people, and I would love the opportunity to see them live.

Alter Bridge :) but at this point they're more of a smaller stage band i think. 
 
Other than that probably Metallica, have loved them for years but never gotten round to seeing them live.

Yeah Metallica would be my second choice, only really started listening to them the past couple of months, but really enjoying their music so would love to see them live

If I were to go, The Mars Volta and Deftones would *have* to be there.

I love you.
 
I've known since about 1995 that Devin Townsend is the single greatest musician on the planet.
 
Anyone who denies it just doesn't know yet.

Oh I'm aware, they're just so metal they need to headline for more than one year in a row.

@CashBailey: Thanks new best friend!!!! Devin Townsend is one of the biggest inspirations in my life & I respect & adore his work endlessly. I'm even listening to Kingdom as I write this.

Would love to see Metallica again but doubt they would headline at Download, heard they signed to appear at Sonisphere. This years Download was good but the weather ruined it for us. As for who I would want headlining, LAMB OF GOD (never happen), Disturbed, not sure on who else right now...

I would like them to get a big power metal band in to headline one of the nights... an iced earth or blind guardian would suit me fine, power metal is usually pretty under represented at download tbh the last 3 years ive been I can only remember seeing firewind and dragonforce... I think soundgarden will be in for one of the nights as the just reformed headline band they seem to get every year
