Korn sell more album than this other bands, it's a fact, so they are on top of the bill. by they way, because of the rain and become they sucks, they leave the fest before they playing (after they saw the festival give them their monay) So since this time, I hate this band !
And the order of the band didn't reflect the running order, for exemple Emperor is the headliner of the sunday ;)

yeah, that was my point. its really the fans fault for putting them on top, because from a business standpoint it is the only logical choice.
You can't completely blame the fans. Blame the greedy festival organizers too. Look how many smaller festivals there are that feature only underground bands. Not every festival needs to include mainstream bands to attract ticket sales. Although Hellfest already includes many of the more popular metal bands, Korn just doesn't fit in and really shouldn't have been included at all. If it really is only about making money, why not begin including more non-metal mainstream acts? I'm sure they can find artists that have sold more albums than Korn to put on the top of the list.

how sad is it when Atheist, Napalm Death and Cynic are billed somewhere in the middle while Korn gets top billing.
