The line-up for Leeds Festival was officially announced yesterday. Well, at least roughly 10% of it – the main stuff. Frankly, this year’s sucks in my opinion. I know some people at work are happy with it, but there’s next to naff all on that I like.
Iron Maiden – superb. But touring off the same album as when I saw them over a year ago. Marilyn Manson – excellent live act, but I’m not really a fan. NOFX – fun live band, but again I don’t know that much by them. Iggy Pop – one-hit wonder. Foo Fighters – they’re OK.
Instead, I’m turning my attention to Download this year. Anthrax, Megadeth, Motorhead, Bowling For Soup, Black Sabbath, System of a Down, Slipknot, Slayer, Killswitch Engage… Much, much better.
My only problems are:
a) I’m seeing SoaD on the previous Sunday in London so that’s one day off work already that week
b) I don’t know anyone who’s going
Part b) there was a hint. Any of you lot? Going or want to? Share a tent, crash out drunk in the back of the car? Preferably someone happy to get there on the Friday morning (nobody decent on till Megadeth) or very late on the Thursday night as I don’t know if I could get the Thu off work.
You know where the email address is…
I was thinking of download and maybe leeds fest friday, but i dont think us going to a festival together again is a good idea as we’ve only just kinda recovered fromt the last one. I’ll leave it up to you 🙂
I would???
If I go to Download, I’ll see them twice in a week… That’ll make 4 times I’ll have seen them. Think they have 2 albums out this year as well.
Oh, no. Stalking’s what I do to Liza Tarbuck. There’s a fine line. For a start I don’t know where SoaD live and I’ve never been “moved on” by the police when they’ve been eating in a restaurant next to me.
She would you know
That’s called stalking I believe.
you’re going to see SOAD? I am SO jealous.
