We're not even into 2008 yet and already there are rumours of KISS playing Download 2008! Those of you that follow the rumours will be well aware that this seems to happen almost every year... however this time it does seem to have a little more chance then in the past. Mainly due to yet another rumour that KISS have apparently reserved the Olympic stadium in Stockholm for May 30th - 2 weeks before Download...
