There's not denying it - for UK rock fans, the cancellation of Sonisphere 2012 was the biggest news story this week. Unless something incredibly dramatic happens later this year, we'd put good money on it being one of - if not the - biggest news story of the entire year . It's because it's such a momentous news event that we're dedicating this week's Sunday Slaylist to the acts that were supposed to be performing at Knebworth this Summer...only with an extra little twist....

Shirt of the Year: Brian Posehn's Exodus shirt, right, and the runner-up's "Cheap Ass Slayer shirt."

Axl and I were joking the other night that we might have invented the phrase "still a thing" as applied to bands/people/trends that seem to have vanished from view but are apparently not just still around but quite popular.
