[geordierussell]

Hmpf. The line-up on Saturday looks much more fun.. anyone know how much day tickets will be? I'm guessing about £50 each.. *ponder*

I'm hoping about that.

I wont be going as the Wildhearts are the only band on sunday i want to see and im not paying £60+ when they havent even been given a good slot.

However if i manage to get a cheap ticket of ebay i may go as its only 20mins across the back roads to Donington for me.

I think the slot is great, 2 or 3 from the top on the 2nd stage gives them a longer stage time than if they were put earlier on the mainstage.

Day tickets will be about £60 as per last year. 2nd stage is better than the main, the sound is atrocious on the main stage at Download as the wind can cause it to swirl, went on the Sunday last year, didn't enjoy any of it due to that.

The important question is do we get any warm up gigs?

Looks like they DEFINATELY won't be at the Reading festival then. Gutted.

Yeah, this is going to be awesome! First time I saw them do a festival was Phoenix '96 and that was main stage, middle of the afternoon, in the middle of a heatwave. Everyone else at the festival staring as several hundred Wildhearts fans went absolutely apeshit and kicked up a huge dustball of mayhem in front of the main stage. You could see them thinking 'what the hell?'. It was ace.

They seem quite low down on the bill according to this poster

Agreed. Seeing fucking Fightstar so far above them on the bill makes me wanna puke blood.

Oh well, it's still great that they're playing there at all.

Puh... What an absolutely shitty line-up... Only worth going to the Friday evening main stage...

In comparison, Reading is a better rock festival than Download...
