[Pop Punk Sucks]

Andy C confirmed the clash yeah. Think he said that 2nd won't run during Aerosmith because Aerosmith didn't want to clash with Slayer.

Andy C? That guy's leaking everything.

But aye fair enough. You can always edit the clashfinders if you can justify it. I'd do it but the ten bands seem pretty sparsely spread anyway so I don't know how it'd work unless more bands are to come.

How on earth have SikTh passed me by until now? I started listening to them yesterday and they're great. Looking forward to their set now. 

Also, Four Year Strong. Any word on wether they will be playing Rise or Die Trying in full? As the tour poster that includes Download says Rise or Die Trying Tour Part II. 

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

I hope not but entirely possible

The Hat has now said Dillinger and Aerosmith don't clash.

Brilliant for me personally.

Though the fact that no-one will be up against Aerosmith might not suit some.

[dentalplan]

FYI: I see that on the second stage, Nothing More have left the line up and Broken Witt Rebels have been added to Sunday. Won't update the clashfinder cos times must be soon to come anyway. Fancy losing an act off the only day going on later and then adding to the one finishing before the headliner.

I want to see System so badly FFS. That setlist is great. I really hope there is a UK tour coming soon.

I'll decide then if it's worth it! A day with £20 to park a car isn't happening regardless of who is topping, I'd rather hope for an arena date for that which is clear of shit weather.

Surely if you can afford £90 for a Day ticket, £20 to park isn't going to make that much of a difference? 

That is one thing that has always pissed me off about DL and Soni, though, is paying to park. Reading and Leeds don't do it. 

[101%]

On the subject of Parking, I have a weekend arena ticket (without camping).

Is it £20 a day to park, or £20 for 3 days ?

You contradict yourself here!

Surely I can afford it but you agree it pissed you off? Reading charge and always did but only a tenner.

£90 is crazy as it is and 9/10 times you end up in the ballache walk of a car park to camp hike!....and they don't open campsites even when one is majorly water logged. I do it when I really want to but allround it remains the worst setout and organised fest I've attended in the UK.
