Dont fret though, there are LOADS of really good festivals on this year. If you look at efestivals, youre bound to find something you like and probably a lot cheaper too. The trouble is choosing one.
Day tickets aren't gone but there's no way I'll just make a one day appearence. And Download always has my favourite bands...the other festivals aren't as rock orientated as Download is
what about reading and leeds or are you one of those hardcore rockers
Guess I must be. It's not that I wouldn't like Reading/Leeds, it's more that download always has loads of bands I want to see whereas Reading/Leeds only really have a handful.
I went to Download last year. Saw all the bands I wanted to (apart from Static X who didn't appear) and had a wicked time getting pissed, stoned and fucking around on the campsite at all hours yeah. I wanna go again so badly and now I doubt I'll be able to. tickets are going at £190 on ebay :crying:
dunno if this is worth the risk but you could do what my mate did at irelands biggest festivel last year, he lost his ticket somewhere outside the festivel, he tied a blue plastic band that vaguely and i mean vaguely represented the wrist thingys they give you, managed to get in, when he got in he walked up to a security guard with this girl and said "this is my baby sister, i lost my wrist thingy in here and i can't leave her here all by herself"...the security guard called him a nice gentleman and give him a free wrist thingy...what a clah buzz that would have been
Hmmm. I seriously doubt that would work. The security at download last year were pretty careful when checking wristbands...
well i think at this stage you have to think to yourself "is it worth £190" up to you :chin:
if you wanna get into download the best thing is get a mate with a ticket ( me ) to go in the 1st day it opens, you go down the next day, get ur mate to rip off thier wristband, say they were ina fight n it got torn off, get another one, then give you the wristbands, then go and say to securtiy, mine got torn off. Sorted
Or, even better still, not.
Especially as they don't issue repeat wristbands.
I'm sooooo excited, I can't wait!!!!!!!!! :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:
im jealous.
Cost me £190 like.
isnt download almost over now?
SABBATH FUCKING ROCKED! Best gig ever? Most definitely.
AND he has already texted me wanting to see me! bless trust him to live in leeds!
anyway how fantastic was the festival-thunderstruck in total agreement! no one gets a crowd like ozzy does!
Best thing: toilets smelt better and were cleaner than at reading/leeds! yay!
Worst things: low planes-scared me to death the first time I saw one! later their noise was er pretty useful!!
Those emo kids are quite violent!
And broke my wrist in a moshpit in System but stayed till the end of the set regardless as I didn't know it was broken. All in all a fucking amazing weekend. Roll on next year!
It was only a tiny break. My wrist is fine. Well it's not, but it will be. Provided I stop playing my guitar and using my left arm to do things :impissed:
And the dust was fuckin horrible
But yes Sabbath were the best gig ever :thumb:
