Too late. After all the garbage they announced in the first flurry, I (again) decided to just stick with Graspop in Belgium. Every band I want to see at Download is also playing there, the ticket's cheaper, campsite facilities better, beer costs less, locals are friendlier, the schedule is adhered to so you don't miss bands, site is smaller so it's quicker to et between stages...

Shame. Download / MoR used to be an awesome festival but it needs better organisation. And fewer hidden extras like campsite charges and parking fees.

I hear that Mosh! I went last year and bloody loved it, can't wait for this year! Well it's only a month and a bit away now!

By the way, good luck to your boys this week! It'd be a shame to see a team like Newcastle relegated!

KID: Nope. It's not a tour. It's a festival and they only do stuff like this for the blokes across the pond. I'd love to see something like this stateside, but it will never happen. Closest we will get is Mayhem or possibly Ozfest again.

Oz: I do believe you're talking smack about Mosh's football team.
