Btw, is anyone going to Download this year?
 
I think I am a bit long in the tooth for festivals these days. Rammstein are fucking class though so well worth seeing them. Maiden never do a bad show so that would be amazing.

I preferred it as a one day festival. I don't do camping.
 
My last one was in 2007. These days I find Download too expensive for what it is, I can't take my son until he is five and they still have camping stoves, etc, banned meaning I have to spend £2+ for a cup of tea...

Agree with everything here.
Only been to Donington once - 1994. First year they had 2 stages. Aerosmith headlined.

A big issue I always have with download is the line up usually descends to the lowest common denomenator. There's usually only a couple of bands I really want to see.
 
One of the guys that works at our place is going to Download for his Stag weekend. That is going to get very messy.

I went to 1992, 1994 and 1995 as I remember.

When they had two stages I was watching Biohazard on the second stage when they invited the crowd to join them and the plug got pulled which was rather amusing.

1992 as one stage was a great line-up
The Almighty opened, then it was WASP, Slayer, Thunder, Skid Row and Maiden
 
Mind you it was only one stage in 1995 and the line-up was fucking great

Metallica
Therapy?
Skid Row
Slayer
Slash's Snake Pit
White Zombie
Machine Head
Warrior Soul
Corrosion of Conformity
 
One of the wettest Download's for years judging by some of the pictures I've seen so far.

/laugh
 
It is a nightmare venue if it pisses down. It was only heavens opened in 1992 for Slayer and during Skid Row's set but it made the front like the fucking Somme.
 
The weather is horrible here in Nottingham so I imagine download isn't much better
