They only did the cashless wristband thing one year mate (thankfully).

Cash is still the preferred currency, or if you use Apple pay, or Google pay or whatever, they'll work at the bigger bars/stalls.

 

cheers, and good to hear

The last few bands are probably just going to be announced with the stage times. No idea who'll be on Saturday now. Papa Roach seemingly busy.

I’m thinking that it’s going Hollywood Undead on the Main Stage Saturday, unfortunately.

This is the earliest I've known the tickets being sent. 

Much better than waiting until the week before.

I know nowt of them beside Young so would likely be elsewhere (Yours Truly and Hot Milk ).

6 weeks today until Pumpkins and Tool . Tool start their tour tonight and I reckon there's a chance of hearing a new song. 

For Pumpkins' set I'm gonna guess (dream, 2. - 4.):

1. Solara
2. Zero
3. The Everlasting Gaze
4. Jellybelly
5. Tonight, Tonight
6. Drown
7. Knights of Malta
8. Today
9. Disarm
10. 1979
11. Landslide (Fleetwood Mac Cover)
12. Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts)
13. Bullet With Butterfly Wings

I can't wait!

Tool played two new songs last night at their first show of 2019, called ‘Descending’ and ‘Invincible’. Videos of them are out there for people who want to see them. I haven’t listened to them yet. 

Exciting times, everyone.

Would be happy with that! I’ve been wondering if they’d be likely to mix it up and throw a few of their heavier numbers in there like X.Y.U and bodies.

New Tool. For years I never thought we'd see it. The Pot is back too, better be keeping that in for Download!

Yeah, they're absolutely gonna throw a few curve-balls in, whether it's a cover or a deep cut. If Billy is rocking the Gish guitar then my vote is for Siva or Rhinoceros.

Some info nicked from Facebook:

South carpark is now day tickets only
West carpark is now campers (fucking massive hill good luck)

The village has moved closer to the arena, to where black camp was (only bit that effects campervan as village will now be further away)

No more green or white camp - merged into blue now

Nxt arena is now top of the field by the guest area

Metal movies late night movies in the media

They said slipknot are starting with a new style in their career with new masks

Enter Shikari said they wanted to headline third stage for the more enclosed atmosphere.(brilliant lads)

Alien weaponry bigged up massively told to get there early as they filled the tent and more at Australia

Plastic bottle machines give you voucher to use in CO OP like the do in Germany

Some more:

Slayer were initially scheduled to sub Tool, but AC convinced them to headline second stage instead. I'd wager in that case that Slayer won't be clashing with Tool, at least not all of them. You would think Slayer wouldn't have agreed to do the swap otherwise. 

Slipknot full endorsed Die Antwoord as their sub.

Pumpkins didn't initially accept the offer of second stage headliner but agreed to play second on main (hopefully bargained a longer set, Tool won't cross 100 minutes will they?).

Slayer in to Slipknot, Pumpkins in to Tool, with Die Antwoord headlining second one night still makes the most sense to me but eh, what do I know? Surprised Pumpkins were considered second stage headliners initially as I thought it'd be pretty obvious they wouldn't accept that on this 'big reunion' of theirs, but then I also thought the same about Slayer on their big farewell. 

[Alex Winstone]

Where were Enter Shikari supposed to fit if they wanted to headline the third stage? Can imagine them 3rd down to Tool

Six bands is more than enough.They'll just open the main stage at 1pm for once.

There are more bands yet to be announced and they aren’t opening the main stage at 1pm on any day other than the Friday.
