Rey_Piste Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Aerosmith and Alter Bridge for the Sunday, I'm going to be waiting to see who else is announced next year before wondering whether to get tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Dent Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I'll be having a Sunday day ticket then, that works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfMetal Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Depending what else gets added that day, I could be tempted by a day ticket for the Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bettencourt Posted November 6, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 Think I'm gonna go to this. Usual, fly down to Birmingham, get train to Derby, stay in Derby. Â I really want to see Rob Zombie. Avenged Sevenfold are ok. Aerosmith were alright last time and well of course Alter Bridge. Â Hopefully a few more bands that interest me will be announced also.

Richie Freebird Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 there's 4 other stages going off at the same time, i'm pretty sure the 2nd stage headliners will be something the complete opposite to what the main stage offers, there's always alternatives. Exactly. I fucked the Foo Fighters (and all my mates) off to see Hatebreed on one of the secondary stages at a festival a while ago. I can't remember who the shit headliners at Donnington were a few years ago too, but all of our crew split up to either see Napalm Death or Billy Idol on the smaller stages instead of whatever mainstream act they had headlining that night. How's that for variety? Â There's always more to see than the main stage, like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I thought that Napalm Death clashed with Slash on that day Edited November 6, 2013 by KingOfMetal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted November 6, 2013 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 top notch death metal band  yeh, last time i was at Download (last year), i nipped off to see Slash headline the second stage instead of watching The Prodigy and it was fucking ace, with the 2nd stage being outdoor an' all it is almost like having 2 main stages there now, it's quality.

Although I thought that Napalm Death clashed with Slash on that day Just had a little look, and it was 2005. Feeder were the band on the main, with Idol on the second stage and Napalm Death in the smaller tent. I think there were only 3 stages back then?

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted November 6, 2013 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) oh i was there that year too. Â Feeder have admitted since that they were a bit of an experiment from Download to see how the crowd would react to a non-metal headliner. To be fair, they went down really well. There probably a few arsey-cross armed metal heads refusing to enjoy themselves but it was a good time for everyone else. Â Looking at that flyer though, i genuinely can't remember seeing anyone else that day except for Wednesday 13, i'm bound to have watched Biffy Clyro too (ive seen them so many times though i forget what was what). I might have seen Garbage too, it was either at Download or at Leeds in a similar sunset slot and they were fucking brilliant, perfect band for that time of day...another band i saw play at that kind of time when the sun was setting on a beatiful day was Placebo at Leeds, it remains one of my favorite festival sets ever.

KingOfMetal Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I stand corrected. But I do seem to recall Napalm Death & Billy Idol playing the same day in 2010, so was an easy mistake to make. Me & my best mate are talking of just doing the sunday at Download and then the Saturday at Bloodstock for Emperor as our festival run next year before doing Wacken the following year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) Deafheaven's Sunbather was voted the second best metal album of the year by Revolver magazine (Black Sabbath were first), great to see it get such recognition from the mainstream metal press as it really is one helluva album.
