| Download Festival 2008
June Friday 13th - Sunday 15th 2008 (Campsite opens on 11th and closes on 16th): Donington Park, Castle Donington
It's a good while away, but already i'm looking forward to it due to chatting to Westy about it 
No bands signed up yet, but there are some rumours: Quote:
Festival director Stuart Galbraith has revealed that he has some high profile acts in mind for the 2008 rock bash in the shape of AC/DC, Muse and the Foo Fighters.
He told the NME: "I would have these three because they reflect the enormous breadth of rock music at Download," he said.
"We'd have Foo Fighters and Muse because they're cutting edge and I'd have AC/DC because they're absolutely classic and I've wanted them to play here for the last five years."
| So who's all planning on heading down then?
High-Five!

Strange, me and Chris were just saying last night that we might go to Download next year. The plan is, to wait till more of the lineup is released then hopefully go down with a big group of our mates.
Even if the lineup is a bit 'iffy' I'd still love to go as it would bring back loads of good memories of Download 2005 when me and the wife first met. | |
