well there's only three weeks left till download festival 2013 kicks off.. i have my weekend ticket ready and can't wait to see three days of awesome music. anyone else on EP gonna be there? if you are tell me who you're most looking forward to... to me it has to be maiden but i think parkway drive are gonna be insane on the sunday
Planning to be there.. not got my ticket yet though (money issues).
chocolateload of bands I want to see - Korn with Head back is definitely one of the highlights.. plus three of the best metal shows on earth so no I don't really want to miss it.
If i could go (which I can't)
Slipknot
Rammstein (For the 3rd time)
Bullet For My Valentine
QOTSA
Korn
Down (2nd Time)
Papa Roach
Alice In Chains
Stone Sour
Enter Shikari (2nd Time)
Limp Bizkit
Dir En Grey (2nd Time)
Katatonia
Hellyeah
The Hives (For old times' sake!)
Goddamn that's a lot of musical excellence
Hellyeah sucks.
That being said that show looks awesome. If only it was on this side of the world lol.
I'd be excited about Alice in Chains, After the Burial, Slipknot, Parkway Drive, and HIM.
If you guys are fans of Papa Roach and Buckcherry, you're in for a treat. They play here in Chicago all the time, they've been tacked on to most all the shows I've seen here, and they both put on phenomenal shows. There are a couple of Sumerian Records bands on there I see too, I've been really into that label lately. I'd say skip Asking Alexandria because they're horrible, but definitely try to check out After the Burial on day 2, they're an awesome deathcore act, I'm going to see them in August.

Totally agree but only after their self-titled. Got the balance right on that album. The two follow ups suck though, way too party metal orientated.

Indeed, Papa Roach - although their studio stuff is pretty weak overall, put on a great show. Saw After The Burial recently with Monuments and Born of Osiris - wicked gig.
rise to remain are a good band to watch.. bruce dickinson's son is the frontman what more can i say

I'm going to see Born of Osiris for the 4th time in like a month. One of my all time favorites. They're from about 15 minutes from my house, and they're my age, I even saw them back when they were named Rosecrance. I've got a buddy who used to be good friends with their drummer.
If I do end up going it'd be cool to meet up Andrew.
