According to the Manchester Evening News, members of a demure choral group have been invited to share a stage with rock legends METALLICA and GUNS N' ROSES at this year's Download Festival, set to take place over the weekend of June 9-11 at Castle Donington, Leicestershire, England.

The Cheshire Chord, a Warrington, England-based group with members aged up to 75, usually perform in cathedrals and classical musical festivals but this summer they hope to appear at a heavy metal festival with some of the wildest men in rock.

They are considering an invitation to perform at the Download Festival on June 10 after organizers of the Donington Park event heard their a cappella version of the KAISER CHIEFS' hit "I Predict A Riot".

Already confirmed for the festival, held at the Leicestershire motor-racing circuit, are METALLICA, GUNS N' ROSES, THE PRODIGY, DEFTONES and KORN.

cool

It sounds like they mean they will perform on the same stage as these bands, not necessarily that they will perform WITH these bands.

Typical media twisting things around. Like when Axl said he spoke to Izzy not long ago, suddenly it's 'Guns N' Roses to reunite' 

[godiva]

I predict a riot......already a classic!

They will do the intro and outro of "Better". That would be badass!! "No one ever told me when I was alone...they just thought I'd know better...better..."

axl's playing with guys closer to his age, cool.. Never heard of choral..

Yeah, it's the same as saying Metallica and GNR will be sharing a stage at Download.

wow,i have a load of friends in warrington.i wonder if they know any of the members of the choral group.  i just thought,if they do i could ask my friends to ask the members to keep an eye out for Axl and get an autograph for me    *picks up the phone and dials frantically* 

[ppbebe]

try it MR but as other people said, it's not like they are singing with Axl.

Tenor is very popular lately.

[FlashFlood]

if they help out they could do the part to TWAT that goes "Ya there was a time, didnt wanna know it all" that sounds like a choir part.

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

yeah but if uncle axl hangs out backstage,he might just mingle with the other performers

[CAFC Nick]

Sounds perfect for Madagascar
