As its a british pass-time to talk about the weather thought i'd drop in a couple of forecasts for you to mull over, looks like we won't be singing in the rain - which is nice...

Can't believe that it's almost time! Will be leaving canterbury in about 18 hours from now and I still need to get food, buy a high-vis jacket, find passport, pack bags...well i suppose that's why i've got tomorrow off work really.

Awesome news about the weather. Must remember to pack the sun cream!

Doubtful that Wolfmother will be playing now, they've cancelled Download due to "band member illness" - and have been replaced there by Killswitch Engage.

Here's to hoping Killswitch replace them at RaR too...

Getting everything ready to leave in 23 hours. So much stuff to fit in such a little car...

I should probably be in bed, but instead i find myself still awake, still packing, with a beer in my hand, trying to sort out music for the road trip, debating whether i should get some kip, but then i realised that im due to be picked up in an hour's time, so rock the f**k on, see you at the ring!

Just recovering now! What a festival, no broken bones this year from me, so added win! Met loads of English people, and I belive a boardie, not quite sure on the username though, sorry Twig!

The only problem I had with the whole festival was how expensive the beer was in the arena! English festivals would never get away with charging £3 for half a pint!

I had my wallet stolen in Zebrahead just after I handed someone their wallet back I found (It had about 2,000 euros and vip passes, I found it at the toilets near the subway, but I was not going to steal from a fellow rocker!)

I was on the screen a few times for Gorgol bordello with my crippled mate, other than that and Zebrahead I played it safe towards the back!

Managed to spend in excess of 450 euros (including the 80euros that went with my wallet! and I am not quite sure how I did it!)

I got loads of pictures to post at some point.. If I cba! The best bet of the whole festival was dragging myself and my not so out of shape friend to the top of the castle! we also grabbed a few of the english guys we met, felt like quite an achievement for me!
