Can't remember if I've already posted this in here. If I haven't then I should have. Like some German Blackened Folk Metal?
Equilibrium - Blut Im Auge (Blood In The Eye) I love this.

The more mainstream end of rock/metal isn't really where the best stuff is anymore (with a few exceptions). Bullet for My Valentine certainly aren't a band I have any interest in, but I would argue that there's actually a lot worse rock/metal around nowadays than them! I don't actually mind 'Tears Don't Fall', though as I say, it's not the kind of metal I'd choose to listen to.

have you seen the prices for the sabbath gigs? no way am i paying £60
I don't do many arena gigs these days for that reason, although there are always exceptions like Rush!! ![]() We're going, mainly because my nephew has never seen Sabbath with Ozzy before and I can't imagine they will be doing too many more tours after this one. Quote:
Well the Stones are charging £95 ennit

![]() I see toilets have been mentioned - obviously you won't be getting luxury, but I have to say they weren't *quite* as bad as I thought they'd be. If you're only there for the day I'm sure you'll survive! |

I went to Bloodstock last year and had a brilliant time, I'm sure you'll love it. The atmosphere is brilliant, very welcoming and friendly, it feels much smaller and less corporate than something like Download or Sonisphere. There's always plenty going on as well, even without the music!

I'd recommend taking some food - there are some pretty good food stalls there, but as with all festivals, they're ridiculously expensive! Seating is up to you - I was happy standing and watching the bands all day, just going back to the campsite every now and again between bands or when someone I didn't like was playing. You can always just sit on the floor (weather permitting), or obviously take a chair if you want to, plenty of people do. That does mean sitting a fair way back from the stage though once the bigger acts start playing. I'd be prepared to take wellies but see what the weather is like first - last summer it was really hot all weekend so they were completely unnecessary. If that's the case again, do not forget suncream!!!

Haha no not at all - you'll get a few of those though!
There's loads of them whining about the 'double dose of Power' (Sabaton followed by Avantasia) over on the Bloodstock forum Quote:

Actually, they don't bother me really. The saturday lineup on the main stage is all Heavy/Death/Power. I'm more worried about hordes of bored Thrash fans waiting for the sunday
There's loads of them whining about the 'double dose of Power' (Sabaton followed by Avantasia) over on the Bloodstock forum And take no notice of the Bloodstock forum, they make up a small minority of the festival-goers. The absolute outrage on the forum when Machine Head were announced as the secret headliners last year was completely OTT (and I don't even like Machine Head!) - I was expecting them to get booed off stage! Yet they went down really well with the crowd on the night. I don't think there was any obvious hostility towards any bands I saw - and you certainly won't be the only power metal fan around anyway! |
