Suggestion: Edit your post to include information about the Download Festival so that people who don't know what it is can find out.

Not going this time, I've been before though.

Just remembered another reason was because we hadn't yet got our Exam timetables ... would have been able to go as my last exam is the day before >< - think my mates are heading off to Reading now tho ... maybe next year?

I got tickets for Reading, I went to both V and Reading last year, and though Reading is twice (and then some) as good as V.

V was full posers and "indy" kids who don't listen to indy but pretend they do. Reading had far better bands and the atmosphere was much better.

Download lineup looks a bit ..... off.

Motorhead, Disturbed, Seether, Offspring, Biffy Clyro, Skindred, Lostprophets, Jimmy Eat World, Coheed, InFlames, Fightstar, Wildhearts, Ash, Simple Plan, Rise Against - Seen all before and were pants gigs apart from Motorhead.

Why would you need your exam timetable? I'm pretty sure you dont have any exams in August.

The fact it's local is just a bonus
