Not going to Download this year or ever again tbh.

Gutted really because the line-up, especially on the Sunday, is awesome and I think that Metallica, after the problems experienced a couple of years ago are gonna put on one hell of a show :worthy:

Just find that is has gone waaaaaaaaaaay too comercial and that more and more people turn up there who have no interest at all in the bands, music or culture of metal but just turn up because it has suddenly become very "trendy" to go to festivals. :wanker:

This just ruins the whole day for me as I feel the atmosphere (especially compared to years ago when it was the Monsters of Rock festival) is shite now (IMO).

Think I will actually go to the revived Monsters of Rock festival in Milton Keynes this year instead. Very "old school" 80's rock line-up there with Deep Purple, Alice Cooper, Journey, Thunder and Ted Nugent being the line-up.

I think it will attract a more "metal" crowd and there will be a much cooler atmosphere there.

Anyway, sorry I digress. I meant to say I would have loved to meet up with some DAOC'ers it the festival. Have met and made very good friends with quite a few people through this game over the years and the thought of a bunch of us partying at a rock concert is almost to good to be true :drink:
