[ADG]

So yeah, tickets go on sale tomorrow, anyone planning on going?

I'm gonna try my damndest to get a couple of tickets. Looks like an awesome line-up too. The Who, RHCP, Primal Scream, Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand and more.

[Colly]

Looks pretty good, but my heart still lies in Leeds and I can only really afford one this year. Growl. Having said that Chillis and The Who don't do much for me as headliners.

[Summers]

The Chilli's don't do much for you as headliners? Die.

Ah well, as much as I'd love to see the Chilli's (the rest can fuck off, really).

I'll be splashing my cash at Donnington.

[MalaCloudy Black]

Fly me out so I can see RHCP and The Who.

Please, PLEASE, PLEASE. Someone.

[tristy]

I rather see the European tour that RHCP is going on, with !!! as openers.

And I also rather see the Reading festival. For Tool.

[Liam]

They been confirmed for Reading?

EDIT: According to efestivals, they are strongly rumoured, but no bands have been confirmed, it seems.

Bollocks...I'd go if I had the money, but there is fat chance of that this year.

[Summers]

Real men go to Download.

[Liam]

Fuck Download. It's at that halfway house between not heavy at all and very heavy where I just am not overly interested.

[Summers]

*it's badass.

[Liam]

I dunno why, but I'd just prefer going to somewhere like Wacken or Hellhammer (I think thats its name) if I wanted to go to a metal festival.

[Summers]

Download has a good bit of everything usually though, and it's well run and all that jazz too. Always guranteed some big bands.

[Liam]

Yeah,but the line-up is still relatively on the commercial side compared to somewhere like Wacken. Not that that overly bothers me, but just you can generally tell what bands you are going to get on the line-ups (a lot of flavour of the month types).

Wacken has Orphaned Land, Soilwork, Nevermore, Amon Amarth, Celtic Frost, Finntroll, Children Of Bodom, Emperor, Ministry and more this year. Looks better than I realised. Six Feet Under as well, but I don't overly like them.

I'd go Download, but I'd choose Reading first. I'd like to go to both, but I'll end up going to none.

Glastonbury in a few years is an idea I'd like to look into.

See, I'd rather go to see Trivium, Bullet For My Valentine, Metallica and Dragonforce at Download than those bands at Wacken.

[Liam]

Seen Metallica, seen Trivium, BFMV aren't anything special, and Dragonforce are the sort of band I'd pay for anyway.

I just like to see a lot of names that I like but wouldn't get a chance to generally see, I guess, is the best way of putting it. Plus the sort of "big names" I like don't tend to play Download. I was surprised Opeth was even there a year or two ago.

[Summers]

I've seen Trivium & Bullet For My Valentine.

And I'll be seeing Trivium again with dragsy and Keith in March.

Still good bands to see live.

Can't wait to see 'talicca, though. Dragonforce excites me too.

[Liam]

I like Trivium, but I've seen a lot better bands live. They were just kinda...there.

Metallica blew me away though.

[tristy]

Nevermore? Ministry? Children Of Bodom?

I don't care what the flavor-of-the-moment metal band is playing at Download, or if Metallica is there. You can't beat those 3 bands, in my opinion.

Damn, ya'll get good shit. We get... Coachella (which is ace this year). And Lollapalooza. And Bonnaroo (which is kinda good this year, suprisingly).
