i think that all the UK gigs sold out now, thankfully i bought them the day they went on sale, which was lucky as the birmingham ones sold out in less than a week! they ended up adding a 2nd london date and have changed to some slightly larger venues in some towns to accomodate the ticket demand and they have still sold out. good to see that 30 seconds are finally getting the recognition they desereve

Yes, definitely. I knew I should have bought the tickets when they went on sale but didn't. Manchester and Liverpool are near me but both sold out. My own fault but next time I won't be so slow!!!

Download!

Hopefully they'll have proper headliners this time, although Iron Maiden on Sunday were amazing (Linkin Park & MCR were terrible choices & not shove hugely popular bands like Korn & Motley Crue in the tent so we can watch them without getting crushed .

The rest of the card was brilliant so there were plenty of bands that could have headlined insteads of those two.

Korn in Plymouth in a couple of weeks. Although I really can't be arsed going, because the support acts look like a bunch of tossers.

Hopefully, I'll be going to Download this year. And by "hopefully", I mean there's about 95% chance of it not happening.
