Sunday now marked as "pissing it down dusk til dawn" on BBC 🤣

Wouldn't even bother looking at a forecast until Weds minimum honestly but pack for rain and shine!

If you have a day ticket for one of the days can you still enter District X?

No because it's in the camping area. I mean you could try sneak in, wouldn't have been difficult last year as barely anyone checked wristbands on the way back in to camp.

I'm just glad I got to see VV earlier in the year!

Alexisonfire clashing with Three Days Graces makes me grateful I saw Alexisonfire last year at Slammy D

It’s a bit annoying yeah, but I’ve wanted to see Evanescence since I first heard Fallen and I’ve never had the chance so I wasn’t missing them for anything. 

(With the way that day has ended up it also means I can probably tick Carpenter Brut off the list on the Friday night so I am delighted)

Like a few on here the Disturbed/Simple Plan and Alexisonfire/Three Days Grace clashes that are causing our group the most headaches

So BMTH played a whole new 16 songs setlist in Budapest last night to what they’ve been playing over the last couple of years. Here’s my guess at what their DL set will be like a week today (ONE WEEK!) with a few extras chucked in: 


1. Amen 

2. Teardrops

3. House Of Wolves

4. Mantra

5. Happy Song 

6. Dear Diary

7. Parasite Eve

8. Shadow Moses

9. 1X1 (w/ Nova Twins) 

10. Lost

11. Butterflies… (w/ Amy Lee) 

12. Nihilist Blues (w/ Amy Lee) 

13. Diamonds Aren’t Forever 

14. The Sadness Will Never End (w/ Sam Carter) 

15. Die4u

16. Kingslayer

17. Drown

 

18. Pray For Plagues 

19. Throne

20. Can You Feel My Heart

Yeah I wish I had but I wasn't really around and free etc. Just hoping he does some future dates.

I mean I knew they were likely to overlap a bit but that's crazy that much. Honestly don't see the point of totally having clash free headliners every night apart from the dogtooth. It's kinda what annoys me with Reading now where there is virtually no alternative.

I even look into going to Europe to see Evanescence but financially just can't do it so made the decision to see Evanescence here purely as they coat much more usually to see. Can't afford to do Rock AM Ring but nearly went for that to tick it and other bands off. Interestingly though, I spoke to guy at Slam Dunk with a RAR tee from last year and he said he had a great time but once you're in the arena you're in for the day. You got to turn up to this sites to camp very early to even have a chance at just a 30 minute arena walk, he said you're looking closer to 45 minutes plus which really puts me off as I like to return to the tent if I have a gap, chill with a couple of drinks.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
