The arena tour isn't doing that bad at all - but yeah, it's way too late for Download now, much like Paramore, they're pop bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not worthy Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Has anyone any Oxfam volunteer experience at Download? What roles they cover and what shift patterns ? any and all information appreciated including what the oxfield is like and how close parking is to it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalredhead Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Got tickets a while ago as it was 4 day festival but really disappointed in the bands announced so far and Metallica for 2 days when they could have booked another big band SOAD just lazy. Even with probably another 60 bands left to announce I'm already thinking of selling my tickets and my 20 year old son was also really annoyed with the lineup he wrote his list of bands he would love to see and it was a big list, only 2 are going to download. They could have done so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The organisers want to make money, and Metallica will make more profit for them than any other band aside from AC/DC - who aren't touring. If Metallica say they'll do two nights? You give them two nights. Serj literally said he doesn't want to tour. That Vegas show will be the biggest phone-in in their history. Why people want SOAD in that state I will never understand.

Metalredhead Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Might just sell up I've already got tickets for Alter Bridge in December, trivium in January, gojira in February and just seen opeth who put on a great show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_vicarious Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 I'm considering selling my ticket too. 4 nights of bands and being the anniversary made me buy a ticket before the announcement. It's nearly all just the radio friendly pop leaning crap that gets played on Kerrang. Waiting for Avril Lavigne to be announced next! 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexiins Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 have just seen Pantera have announced a European tour, with space on the days of Download. You consider we could have them at Download? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metalredhead Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Ozzy is on tour at the same as download could be the first chance for the younger generation to see him and also the last chance.

Looking at those dates they could potentially be in the mix for the Thursday or Friday before heading to Sweden on the Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another download missed chance. That tour is the whole reason he would never have been booked in the first place and it'll be a miracle if it goes ahead. So so far, you want a band who's singer has no interest in touring and a singer who can barely stand up. Anyone else on the "missed opportunity" list? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom1984 Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 I'm not sure booking what would surely be the most risky booking they could EVER make would ever be the right way to go tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlitterTea Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Does anyone know if there'll be day tickets available for the Thursday at all? I'm hoping to get a day ticket for 1 of the Metallica days, I'm kinda thinking Thursday might be easier to get but maybe have more oldies in the set? I think this years lineup looks mega 🤩I can't manage the full weekend this year but would if I could! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Ozzy could count himself lucky to be alive next year, let alone touring. He isn’t touring ever again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
