Got my ticket already. With Soni being doubtful I was going to download anyway, no matter who they announced. It's which other fest that I'm swithering about. Those that were bleating about the mud should have went to later festivals. Download was a desert in comparison to T. They were all hopelessly muddy last year. We're due a good year, not that it'll make much difference to how much fun I have.

My mate who I always go with is commited to DL this year now so I'll prob buy a ticket soon with him. Didn't really wanna go Download again but the headliners are more then enough to sway me. It helps I can literally step out my door and get a public bus to Donnington too lol. Got plenty of money now too.

Will most likely go Glasto too, but can see me being lazy and not registering... Wanna do a foreign one too. Prob one of the Croatian ones.

Not unless friends try to persuade me into it.

I went to the Maiden/Rammstein Soni year, and I'm not a big enough fan of either to be absolutely desperate to see them again. If the undercard's brilliant then maybe, but I don't really rate Download as a festival and aren't that interested in the headliners, so it's hard to see how I could justify the expense.

Booked tickets at the weekend. 3 day.

4 of us old folks coming down. All for our 1st D/L, not our 1st Donnington tho'!

Rammmshhtein nailed it for me (oh and last years line-up... you lacky peephole!)

No festivals this year so good to know I'll be getting the festival fuzz for a few days next year.

Ok feel I should ask a daft noob question:

Whats the people capacity of the festie and how many folk camp?

      So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.

      I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
