Hi guys, what’s the general consensus of using the Cisco Secure Client VPN? It’s the general work one that we, and I think a lot of businesses, use. Or are we saying don’t connect to a VPN at all? Cheers

That all depends really what else you get over the weekend. For how often I find a weekend worthwhile to go to download I'd just rather they were elsewhere. The difference in download booking a band like green day is though is they need to make more effort to cater that day whereas a normal download headliner booking would kinda just follow their usual policy and rotated booking repeats etc. The other days will more so do this given they are more usual bookings.      I have an interest in how the green day day turns out, that's quite obvious. I'm fully entitled to be someone who waits like many buyers until they see a lineup and base it on that. I think the whole gigs scene personally bar the odd few acts is an overpriced mess. Luckily not every other bands I like had jumped on the wagon.    Because slam dunk cost me £110 for a day will bands that I wouldn't hesitate to see vs the usual Download. All round it's a better site and festival. What is the point in me saying £300/350 quid for a weekend at Download with a load of bands that overall wouldn't interest me as much is better value? I've found it worth going to 3 weekends before, 2011, 12 and 23 but I've been to a couple of separate days....that tells you that it's rarely worth the weekend cost for me. There has been a couple of times when maybe I'd have got a cheaper ticket of twickets was around or I knew of it but never a weekend. I'm sure there are plenty of other things I could pay for and likewise yourself you wouldn't consider worth it.   We have much different interests in music but I'm not saying you're wrong for spending money on a festival you actually like, I'm saying anyone can buy a ticket cheaper before a lineup comes out. 

Ouch. What a downgrade.     Though admittedly that does somewhat compensate.

I just meant compared to what you'd pay for Download weekend, it makes Download's price much more reasonable.
