They are fucking unreal sounding. They're going to tear the Zippo stage to pieces. They need to headline in the next few years, they just NEED to. 

 

Absolutely fantastic so far. They’re too big for the 2nd stage of Download now imo

I have a Friday day ticket but Rock am Ring is making me want to go the whole weekend.

Would it be possible to exchange my ticket for a weekend ticket at the box office?

GNR casually dropping Slither into their set in Berlin tonight. Hope it stays in the set, would go off.

That Sunday at Rock Am Ring on main stage from Bad Religion is great but I'd personally see Chase and Status instead of Good Charlotte or mix it up, Friday is acceptable but for me RAR has done a lot better

So the set times have been released and there's a 1 hour and 40-minute gap on the Avalanche stage between Rolo Tomassi and Being as an Ocean, I know Download don't usually do secret sets but why would they leave such a big gap otherwise?

3 and a half hour set for GnRs. Epic

Stone Sour seem pretty likely for that?

[Reece1617]

I thought Stone Sour seemed pretty likely, especially with the speculation going about earlier in the year. I'd love it to be Ghost though.

It’ll be a dash but I’m made up that I’ll be able to see both Andrew WK and Volbeat. My only bad clash is Parkway Drive and Knocked Loose but I’ll be going to Parkway. 

Secret set seems likely. I’m going for Stone Sour or Enter Shikari.

That would be great but they don’t seem to fit in with the type of stuff on Avalanche over the weekend.

Wouldn't say that a secret set particularly needs to but I get your point. If it's gonna be someone that'll fit Enter Shikari could be a good bet.

They were who I thought would fit in quite easily in the Avalanche 

[SJH]

I've rather stupidly left it too late to get a locker and am concerned my car keys won't make it through the weekend. Anyone know if they leave some tickets back that you can purchase there and then? If not, any ideas welcome!

Defo to allow for Axl being half hour late

That almost makes it worth doing.

He's not been late at all on this reunion or when he was with AC/DC but keep on popping it to make that joke every few weeks, it's hilarious.

It's horrible, isn't it? Really wanted to see Knocked Loose.

How much does it cost to charge your phone each time you use the facilities?

Take a battery pack.

Yeah agreed. Bought one for £18 off amazon before Glasto 2017, lasted me the entire time and far more convenient than leaving it with the facilities.

[BigG94]

Think I’ll invest 30 quid in tesco and get one. Does 6 charges too so should be dead on

Leaving 8am tomorrow for the 10 hour drive down. I excite! Will be in for avatar. looks like main all day for fri. Stoked for GvF and Thrice as they are new to me. The Inglorious/Dream State clash is killing me. DS will likely win. Say hi if you see my ugly pus or just hurl abuse, I'll be sooooooo happy for the next 5 days i'll likely give you a big hug  Have a great time e-fest rock and metal people.

Safe trip fella and as normal will catch up with you at some point over the weekend.

[The_Amazing_Oblong]

Thinking of leaving around lunchtime tomorrow but it's only half hour away from me (on a normal day). 

I am not prepared - yet. Just need to pack, do the shopping, find all the things and the put it all in the car.

Made slightly easier by the fact we just got back from Bearded Theory less than week ago so all the things should be knocking about.

Have a good one.

[Dukey]

Have a mint time everyone who's going, see you in the pit for Parkway ?
