🤘🏻Bloodstock 2023🤘🏻
Well...What a tale of 2 totally different Festival experiences...
Firstly - All of The Good 😁
It started absolutely seamlessly! Everything went off without any issues at all! No traffic, no queues, we meet everyone super quick and all got camped in Midgard togetherish. And It's an absolutely perfect festival! Make no mistake, it's spot on for the Community vibe we all have & Love. Bloodstock is definitely a meeting point for a few hundred of my closest mates that don't live close and we spend hours catching up & sharing stories.
☺️
UA-cam:
I'm amazed at how many people quote certain things back to me that I've said in old videos & repeat flippant comments! I absolutely loved catching up with you all 🖤 and really did my best to at least get a quick "Hi & Bye" on camera! Especially in the first 2 days! All such positive stuff! & It's great to see we're making an impact on your lives by just screwing around & being ourselves. + The videos are now sponsored by The London Metal Coalition.🤘🏻
The highlights band wise:
🤘🏻HATE!!🤘🏻 They were exactly what I needed! But so early! & We hadn't slept!!! 😂
Killswitch Engage (I was always a Howard guy) but they absolutely smashed it! & Took me by surprise.
Abbath I have never seen them be that good!!! 😂 I have seen him many times be sloppy as fuck but this was a good show!
Decapitated - My neck still hurts from headbanging that fast!!! 🤘🏻😎🍻 Exactly what we needed!
Lokust what a turn out! It was cool to meet so many people who went to the show, on my UA-cam recommendation! I tried to get this on camera as much as possible, I was shocked that it had that kind of influence!!
& Kinda the same thing with Sanguinem!!! It was so cool to follow their story from winning London Metal 2 the Masses to playing Bloodstock. That Live performance was so much better than the recordings!
The Bad
Unfortunately one of the worst things I've ever witnessed happened at this festival...
After Abbath we had gone back to Camp for more drinks. Whilst walking up to the toilet, I walked into the scene, slowly figuring out it's where my friends were camped & That Vyte had passed away in his tent.
Going from such a fucking high to watching that, was the biggest emotional drop I've personally ever had. Total silence...The Bloodstock staff & security were respectful & handled it as best as they could. Watching Debs give that speech to us lot after waiting for what felt like hours was too much for me...I couldn't cope & was a crying mess. So if any of us seemed off on the following day thats why. So many of us are still in shock & it really hasn't sunk in at all...
But we all stayed, we finished the festival, it's definitely what he would have done/wanted & my hope is that our little group of mates really pull's together & support/ check in on eachother through the following few weeks/months & most importantly the now empty feeling Gigs. Because he was at absolutely everything with us! A gentle giant & Absolute Fucking Legend.

On the way home
4 miles from Oxford services our car had ESP failure & suddenly went into Limp mode on the motorway & so we had to crawl down the hard shoulder 😂 I managed to reset the ECU at the services and got the thing 9.5 hours home, but it was a tough one! We passed out nearly straight away and my Mac completely broke whilst uploading the footage so hopefully thats not corrupted & I'll be working on the next series of Bloodstock Vlogs throughout this week. As usual 7PM & I will do the LiveChats🤘🏻and will be spending a few hours catching up on all of the messages I've (Not) ignored!
Thanks for making this Festival Special and getting me through it guys! Mad Love as always!

- No Faked footage!! All opinions are real & I turned down some amazing sponsors for these to keep it unchanged & as real/honest as we actually are. 🤘🏻
- Anything you want to contact me about privately/not in the comments my there is an Email in the Bio.
-Thanks for reading this & Watching! It means the world to our little group of craziness that you'd come up & say Hi or whatever. We are all real approachable people! 😂 We all exist in real life & you'll never be tuned away. Really appreciate the feedback!
🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻
That big tent is nuts!
Top guys too!!!
A wild Mead and Metal appeared !? Best channel crossover
Cheers!! 🤘🏻😎🍻
Supporting other Vloggers can only be a good thing & Lead to future fun times!
+ It costs me nothing & They deserve it! 🖤 Great people too!
Glad your channel is growing. You come across genuine and a good guy. Plus your entourage likewise!
Thank you!!
There's Absolutely no faked shity bullshit here!!! Just a ton of my best mates making the most of the best Metal festival in the UK! 🤘🏻😎🍻
I am always amazed at how many people you know at Bloodstock.
A true Gent as always 🥳 I wish they hire you as official site blogger 🍾
Ahhhh mate thank you as always! Ya have to remember all I did for nearly 20 years was Daily party in Metal clubs n go to Gigs so it's not surprising haha
&
I think if this shit became too much like a job, I wouldn't do it... It'd probably take the magic away ya know? - I could be wrong though!
🤘🏻
Joe has the best stories. Man, each time you get him started and it's "No, not that time..." and you realise there are twenty other equally mental things he could have got into. No spoilers for my favourite, I'm sure you filmed it.
Ahhhh bro!!! I couldn't show the Egg story hahaha there was a conversation next to the microphone that would have instantly got this taken down!!! 😂 - Thank Bartek for that!!!
Pahahaha!!!
Ruby is a beaut doin all the trolley runs 🙌🏽💪🏽💖
Heavily edited!!!
😂
@@billymayhem 😂 yeah yeah whatever haha
That's my story & I'm sticking to it!!!
Pahahaha!!!
😂
Awesome video dude! Was great to meet you keep it up🤘
Thank you!!!
🖤😎🤘🏻
Tent within a tent amazing!
The videos so far have been excellent! It's just like being there so doesn't make me feel as bad for not going this year. Bet it takes ages to get what probably is a 5 minute walk!
Thanks mate!!!
Well put it like this... A 20 minute car run took 2 hours and I drank 6 FREE beers!!! 😂 It's been amazing hearing the impact these videos have had on people I've never met.
It's 100% worth it & wouldn't change a thing! 🤘🏻
Awesome! The story time was hilarious! The awkward escape from the weirdo...did some weird shit happen off camera?🤔🍻🤘
Yeah I think I didn't come across very well there haha, but several things happened off camera and we were made to feel very uncomfortable so I just wanted to gtfo 😂
Yeah mate properly!!!!
the 2 that caused the most grief! One was literally 6 feet from my side at all times, saying nothing but following us everywhere. When Bartek 2 was trashed, she was very creepy & it was way too close for comfort. - censoring a tad...
The second was because of Joe!!! haha He invited a total nutter and she was just shouting and following us. She found our tent and just waited outside doing absolutely nothing. I told her to fuck off and she sat in the path for 3 hours waiting for us to leave... we escaped when she fell over and she was too drunk to get up!!! lol It was a tough one as she was trying to be very touchy...
Ugh, people!!!
I luv the tree climbing video 😂 what were drinking 😂
I stayed up 3 days on a trot one year at BOA was exhausted after it 😂
It definitely starts to take its toll!!
Hah nice to see our spotted flag on there 🤣 🤘
I laughed so much from the moment I saw it!!! It'd been years since we'd thought about that utter Headcase!
😂
Imagine being a legend for biting people pahahahaha
@@billymayhem it’s basically folklore at this point 😁
Bus drivers wife haha
@JoseReyes-bh9yf
Legend! Haha
You're right the footage was dark 🤣 great to meet you and keep on smashing it. Beers again will be had 🤘
So gutted about it!!!
But honestly mate, really appreciated that chat. It was great to hear your insight into where I'm at. We'll definitely do something again soon!
☺️🍻
1:58 Wahey! Who's this handsome bastard? lol
Oioi!!!
🤘🏻😂🍻
hi billy it was nice to see you, i am the person waving at you at 18:35 with my gf
I told you I'd get ya on the vlog! 😂
(even in pixelated form) haha
Thanks for watching!!!
🤘🏻
IM THE KID!!!
🤘🏻😂🍻
Beers up!!!
Haha
Yikes, Stella... remember that people are boycotting Anheuser-Busch.
Great video otherwise 😅
I heard about this today!!!
Boycotting a brewery is hard!! 😂
Sure is. Stella used to be my go-to beer.
Remembering when I got stuck in Germany, and only could get Beck's.
The only thing worse than a bad beer is no beer 🤘🏻
@Drunken.Sailor
I remember when they changed the % and it's never been the same!!!
The old taste reminds me of my teenage years! Haha
Another top vid dude
Thank you!!!
🤘🏻😎🖤
