Been to quite a few, inc Glastonbury before the capitalist asshats decided the so called "musicians" like Cheryl "I cant mime a blow job let alone a song" Cole need to be paid insane amounts of cash for doing what amounts to jiggling celulite and botox at an us while thinking about their next pay check.

I went to Download festival a few years back, had a blast, what I remember, but I also remember not being skint when I left!

I know what you mean Whoodoo, ever since festivals have started selling out instantly they just haven't seemed as fun

check out:

The temper trap they will be insanely awesome


I went to see The Temper Trap in Rock City in Nottingham, I have to say, there were pretty shit hot :)

You listen to their album and a couple of songs grab your attention but when they're live, all their songs are amazing! :O

Went to Download this year and it was really good. Food and drink were overpriced, but the line-up was awesome (if you're a certain age, anyway!). AC/DC, Aerosmith, RATM, Motorhead, Saxon, Slash, Billy Idol and Deftones all played the main stage. Some stuff for the youngsters as well like Emo for my Valentine and Atreyu and whatnot.

Plus, it's the only day of my life where I managed to get sunburnt and nearly drowned on the same day!

And yes, lots of bewbies and lots of (worryingly fat, in many cases) scantily-clad women.

Was the first festival I've been to actually, and I'll be looking to go again next year.
