Download festval

26 Feb 2006

As I've been hanging out here for a little while I've noticed from quite a few threads and posts that quite a few members are rock music fans and quite a few others enoy the "Goth" lifestyle. So inspired by this I would like to ask if any members are planning to go to the download festival at donington in june? I've been to the last three and even went last year on my own and had a great time met loads of wonderful guys and girls. The line up this year includes....Metallica,Guns 'n roses, prodidgy,trivium,clutch,bullet for my valentine, lacuna coil and inme. There's usually around 50 bands playing and the atmosphere and friendliness of the cowd is amazing. There is usually quite a large contingent from the fetish community. Just thought it might be groovy if any others were planning on going we could arrange some sort of meet/party one night.
PS to keep the lawyers happy "other festivals and gigs are available"

really looking forward to it again, cash is a bit tight for me too at the mo (D.I.V.O.R.C.E.) but I'll be there one way or another (maybe not for 6 days at a 3 day festivaal as I did last year tho !!) I know it's a bit ahead of time but pm me and I'll start a list and try to get a party arranged.

Family's always gotta come first mate, shame about Download though, maybe next year Sunny Donnington might be an ideal holiday location for the whole family!!!!

I just heard that tool were playing on the friday night so we've got to go. If chains are playing too that makes it essential! I think some sort of social meet of metal swingers would be cool if anyone else fancies it.

whoo hoo cradle of filth have been confirmed :bounce:

That's it ! The goth gear is being brushed off as I type ! lol

I was in two minds (up until Metallica were announced) but the lne up is looking awesome now. Cradle played the year before last and were stunning, a bit unsure about G 'n R , don't get me wrong I love their music but can they ever really be Guns 'n roses without Slash???
A meet has got to be on the cards, a little drinky round the camp fire under a great big SH flag anyone???

2 Mar 2006

yes a metal swinger meet sounds good. we do need to do it.

2 Mar 2006

I saw GnR at the Leeds festival a few years ago in the new form of the band. They were really good and are we'll worth seeing again.
Still not the same without Slash and Duff tho.
Clutch look like they are playing too and they are amazing!!

2 Mar 2006

was not sure if i liked the sound of seeing g n r as they are now, but when tou think of it
how could they not be good, its g n r's. Download is going to rock, i only hope im am not too wasted so i can remember some of it.

Birmingham Academy anyone? Sepultura there in a couple of weeks and HIM in April (but it is a rescheduled gig so I don't know about tickets).....
Surely that's an incentive for some?
