download sucks

i agree with all of you. download this year sucks there are only a few bands going that i love like him, bullet for my valentine, children of bodom, disturbed and kill hanah. i think its a complete waste of money even buying a ticket. who the fuck wants to go see lostprophets and the offspring. for one they both suck. for two they have never realeased any good songs and for three they there songs dont have any meaning. i could have made the headliners for download a hell of a lot better than what it is now. kiss aint gonna be any good without ace freehley. he was the best out of them all.

BRING BACK PROPER BANDS TO DOWNLOAD LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYS WHEN MY DAD USED TO GO THAT WAS PROPER MUSIC. !!!!!

right, i'm sorry, but who the hell do these narrow minded tabloid nazi's think they are!?

first off, they label emo as a "self-harming cult" and then point the blame on My Chemical Romance... how old are teh people behind the tabloids!? and do they all wear burberry and tracksuits!?

now, i'm no emo, check me, my favourite bands are Rage Against The Machine, Avenged Sevenfold and Paramore (open minded i am).... also, i am not a My Chemical Romance fan, in fact, i hate them... BUT! i seem to recall a while ago when goth was labelled a cult and marilyn manson was taking the heat form the press...

i hate it when people need someone to blame and look straight at music, without looking into history of death threats from other school pupils, or whatever else

newspaper journalists need to get a fucking life and stop blowing small things right out of proportion... and "normal" people need to realise that these tabloid nazi's will do anything to get under our skin

Nothing wrong with Nazis. I expect Hitler'll be along to agree sooner rather than later.
Smart fellow, our Adolf.

Right, let's get this straight, once and for all.

Metallica's greatest set was at Download 2006 when they did Master of Puppets in full. I highly doubt you'll see that at Leeds. Slipknot always do the festivals, nothing new there. And RATM...well, I'm not too fussed.

Cos Download has Kiss, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Judas Priest, Motorhead, High On Fire, Comeback Kid, Black Dahlia Murder, Stone Gods, Firewind, Black Tide, Testament, Saxon, Ace Frehley, Amon Amarth, Throwdown, Job For A Cowboy, Skindred, Cavalera Conspiracy, Children of Bodom, The Wildhearts, In Flames, August Burns Red, Between The Buried And Me, Airbourne, Apocalyptica, Rose Tattoo, Black Stone Cherry, Municipal Waste and Exit Ten.

All of whom will make this festival a hell of a lot better than the shoegazing lot that you've got at Leeds.

Grow the fuck up and stop bashing Download. Fair enough if you don't like it, but if I remember rightly the same people were praising Download for booking Madina Lake, Lostprophets, Elliot Minor, Pendulum et al a few weeks ago.

Where are they all now? Or is Download too spicy for you?

Did I read that right? Did someone just refer to Lethal Bizzle in a good way?

Download is all about the fun though. When I went in '06 [mostly for the music] the atmosphere was what made me come back this year.
