Thanks to my mate Greg & in turn his mate Scott, we had AAA passes for the show! Got to see two different sets by Anthrax. One of which,was in a tent 

 

 

The other one was on open air stage.  

Kerry King (Slayer) walking to his buggy to take him to the stage 😉 By total fluke, my friend Tess got in the photo 🙂 (we didn’t know each other then) 

 

The Prodigy were great !   I think it was Maxim who came out into the crowd & went back to it, past us. Backstage we got some photos with Anthrax    Saw an exclusive acoustic set by Ally from The Virginmarys 

The very  strange Babymetal 

The clip i posted of them has had over 1 million views !

Ghost were pretty damn good 

 

And of course, Maiden were fantastic 🙂

Truly fucking AWFUL weather in general. Even going INTO the festival on first day, the “roads” were a bloody mess. They should have had tracking down in a bunch of places, but they didn’t. The arena was late opening due to it being partly flooded. The little amount of straw they laid down was virtually pointless. Download took the piss. With all the money they must be making, why not invest in certain things to make the experience better when it’s these conditions?? I was & still am, disgusted with the whole experience (I’ve not been since). Even despite there being some great bands over the weekend, this one just left a nasty taste in the mouth.
