I'm going. Can't wait either. Are you in the campervan field? There were a fair few Bongos there last year.

[flipflop]

ye - my 1st festival !! can't wait to see soad !!

you taking an awning? I have royal traveller and can't decide
to take it or not ?

[dave_aber]

My mates will be taking a tent, and I might take a quechua as well.

I'd definitely take an awning of some sort.

[flipflop]

yeh think i will



who ya looking forward to seeing ?

[dave_aber]

The lineup isn't as good (for me) as last year, but there is plenty to be excited about. Really want to see Skunk Anansie, Alice Cooper and The Cult. Will also be making sure I get to see Avenged Sevenfold, SOAD, Thin Lizzie, Puddle of Mudd, Korn, Alterbridge - the list goes on....

Rock Sugar are not to everyone's taste, but they are a good laugh. Not sure they are going to be as good on the main stage as in a tent where they were last year.

Been listening to The Pretty Reckless last week. Didn't rate them before, but I've been converted.

Either way it's gong to be a cracking weekend. .

(And a very drunk one )

soad for me - pendulum korn pretty reckless sevenfold
can't decidec wether to watch rob zombie or linkin park
I've seen them both live before but they on at same time

Friday night is poo on the main stage so it'll be 2nd stage
for me

what time you arriving? I will be getting there Friday early
as poss - gates open at 8am ?

[dave_aber]

We're driving down as far as Warrington on Thursday evening, and on again Friday morning. Probably get there about 12. As long as we see puddle of mudd we'll be happy.

[dave_aber]

It's bongotastic here.

Think Jaret and erik of Bowling for soup are doing an acoustic set that is well worth a listen. Caught them in Sheffield last year great sound.
