i was at DOWNLOAD it totaly kicked man, it rocked, slipknot blew me away, korn blew me away, i was mildly amused by metallica (quite a funny guy) soulfly was ace, machine head really blew me away, as did damage plan, when they played "walk" dude the pit...no not the pit, the whole f**king place went crazy with a capital K.
damage plan was one of the major highlights of the whole thing!
i got there friday at about 11 and was queing (man that was gay) for like 2 hours, had food, had booze, got stoned out of my face, was awesome
satday, i felt like shit (hangover) wasnt really interested in most bands on satday, gotta say monster magnet where crazy (throwing a guitar at the crowd, jesus) static didnt show which i was sooooo pissed about cos they where the reason i woke up at all on satday, soil was delayed till sunday, which again pissed me off, linkin park was pretty damn awesome, also was quite suprised by powder, they put on a decent show.
sunday, was bliss, watched a couple (breed 77 etc) cradle of filth was amazing (not too keen on the sound but the show rocked (woman on a ribbon and a rope, thought she was gonna twang into the crowd) ill nino was cool better than i thought they would be, turbonegro was comic relief "i have erection" wtf, i was in the pit pretty much from there on, soulfly (water break) machinehead, slipknot, korn (very sweaty and dehydrated, have super water break) metallica (rest) went home that night thanks to a generous dad of a mate, man i was tired
had major sunburn, had, and still have a crazy white line on my head where i was wearing a f**king head band (well i say head band i mean my mates sleave, which by the way he burned off almost setting himself on fire in the process
the shitters were suprisingly good considering, all in all an amazing weekend, spoilt by crap organisation and stupidly long ques, oh and we cant forget the amazing prices for food and dringk, specially booze *sarcasm* 30 notes for a 24 pach, around mine its 48cans for 20quid, the prices where soooo bad, the rest kicked
