Red Day Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I'll be heading off from NE Scotland after work tomorrow to get myself well south for Friday. Safe travels everyone and here's hoping we get a relatively dry weekend and the music is brilliant. I cannot wait to see live music again. 😍 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone does go that is positive and it spreads (which is unlikely given the event is all outside) then all the people attending are doing is depriving themselves of festivals/gigs in the long run as that'll make it harder for them to open up. The tests aren't of equal accuracy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moey Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Doors open at 2pm. It seems that it’ll be quite a challenge to get everyone in, pitched, and ready for a 5pm start. anyone seen whether there is appetite to open the doors sooner (ideally midday)?

Where have you seen 2? I thought it was 12. Blimey, that will be pushing it even if it is 10,000! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dip Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Yeah, they'll probably keep the arena closed until 2ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a response to a question on twitter, surely they open it around 11-12, they can't get through 10k people checking covid tests and expect them all to be fully set up with tents etc and at the stages for music in 3 hours!

Galactus Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Not long now, just want to be there and set up. 😆 I can't wait to see the site in person, from the map and some of the pictures it looks like they've nailed it. I'm intrigued to see what the age range is there, I really hope it's a mix like a usual Download year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon it might even be a slight older crowd - only due to people hanging on to tix to get priority, so we might miss out on the local youngsters. This crispy old sod is really up for it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they stick to 2pm open they're going to have to be on it at the gates for eveyone that wants to catch the first band at 5pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FakeEmpire Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 I'm sure they won't want photographs of people queueing in the rain in their masks for hours, they'll be doing all they can to get us through the gates as quickly as possible. I imagine 2pm is the official time but they will be opening earlier to clear out the people who inevitably turn up hours ahead of time.

wro_lap Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 I take it if I have one crate of 16 beers they won’t mind me bringing my excess 8 outside of that container? It says one case but it’s still 24 cans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
