Anyone know of any bargains on wellies? Don't want to break into my Glasto funds too much, and need them by Tuesday morning, so will have to buy them from a shop, instead of over the net

As a regular that isn't going this year, I confidently predict it will be ok. 2008 style I reckon, the odd shower but the ground will dry quickly before Wednesday's onslaught.

Looking on the bright side, all the fair weather glasto goers that arrived as the gates opened to watch a football match last year, will probably delay their Wednesday trip this year out of fear.

Leave the light weights to worry about what the TV tells them, we will all get in a little quicker :D

And a nice comment from a reg who is still optimistic even tho not going. And I dont mean mindless - 'it will be sunny' optimisn. A good does of realism and the truth that we were never gonna get a 2010, but we were never gonna get a 2007 either.

So all is good :rolleyes:

    • An interesting thing this. Having seem them several times (some of their gigs veer into back catalogue niche territoty), I partly agree they arent Pyramid material (theough modern defeinition of 'bangers' although I could see them headlinging the Other stage) I can't think of another festival in the world that they couldn't headline - Reading, IoW, BST, Rock Wercheter, Roskilde, etc etc.
    • Ohhh it’s very, very good. 
    • I'm sure you like silly music too but is it because it's not a Download traditional type act it gets looked down on? Rock am Ring booked them, and they sell every year so don't actually need to   Andy going and being replaced is the best thing that could have happened to Download, someone fresh to mix it up a bit rather than just a complete rotation. The only reason Andy booked ST in ti headline too was because he loves them and he was going on to manage them. Nah, Andy booked FOB in a year where over 20 acts were asked, I'll guarantee if they get Blink and having had Green Day they did not need 20 bands to come to those. FOB are also not one that have been booked in Europe to headline by anyone other than Reading as co-headliner as far as I can see. They weren't a ooh god yes they've booked FOB.
    • Would love to see them headline as well, but agree with Mr Bailey ☹️
    • I think it's just a slight shift in target audience of the festival, Andy also booked FOB    A lot of young people (me included) are nostalgic for the 2000's pop punk and nu metal rather than the 80's legacy bands    It's just the festival moving with the times I think Andy would of done the same    Although they are still booking some legacy acts like GNR but that doesn't seem to have gone well ticket sales wise
