      Yes. or how to sneak cheap cold water into festivals. Hint: it involves a camelbak water pack or two and a bra.

    Went in 2016, never again. Took nearly 40 mins to walk to the arena from camp - give me Bloodstock over that anyday. The weather that year didn't exactly help either.

    I paid £300 early bird for 5day camping and saw 33 bands over that time so about £8 per band... Can get concert tickets for that price. Took my own snacks and sealed soft drinks. Snuck in some alcohol. Spent £300 extra over all 5 days on meals/drinks and merch. I honestly think thats not bad pricing

      Ended up having to get camping plus due to getting tickets late (£450), smuggled a load of drink in for the first 3 days), spent £175 on more food and drink across those 5 days (this includes at coop), £70 on merch (tshirt and a hoodie) and saw also about 30 bands + Little Dan very briefly after carcase, who was looking a bit lost and not very happy.
      I however was enjoying myself big time and burning to a crisp 😂100% worth the money in my eyes. wish i was still there. Bloddstock next!!

    Security ranged from full bag searches, checking under hats and body pat-downs to being waved through with no checks when entering the arena. We got to site Wednesday and walked through security to the campsite with no bag checks at all.

      Was saturday afternoon when they started knuckling down. Me and me other half was taking loads of drink in from the thursday to saturday morning. left to go back to the tent saturday afternon to cool down a bit, and when returning for disturbed, and security seemed to be completely different and nasty. Luckily wasnt carrying anything that time though, or on the sunday. They suddenly because brutal!

    Metal fans deserve much better than the poor effort that was this festival. Basically no extra activities or whatever outside the carnival, the worst lineup in download history on its 20th anniversary, stretched out to 4/5 days without any extra acts, the sound at the main stage was awful and travel was a complete farce on Thursday. Feel sorry for the regular goers who Download seems to mean so much to. Andy Copping/John Probyn should leave next years organisation to someone with some new ideas. rip download.

    I went to the First Download.. then every year for the next 6 years . then knocked it on the head as it got more expensive. the camp sites got further away. and the shithouse more and more minging.. Plus the headliners just became a merry go round of about 4 bands .. line up padded out with shite bands..Also why can't they be bothered to put some sideless marqees up randomly . so folk can shelter from Sun or rain.. wouldn't cost the earth..

    After big Dan's reaction to wearing a hat (in the last mid month metal) I suggest a Hat Tier List. From how metal the headwear can look to practicality.
    Could be rather splendid.

    I didn't go this year but last year security on the gate was on par with Bloodstock security for Friday and Saturday but Sunday was insane with much tighter security (which is what I expected from Download as they have been pretty strict in the past).
    I won't say what I carry in or where but at Download last year I did a "dry run" (to see where i was searched and how) then went back to my tent, got my drinks and went back in.
    I would've gone to Download had the lineup been better but Download has always been a festival I need to examine the lineup for. Bloodstock is always awesome and i'll happily hand my money over for a ticket without knowing who'll be there.
    Will you be at Bloodstock this year? I've seen you there a few times but i've never actually said hello so this year i'll try.
