I don’t really give a shit if anyone else enjoys the weekend, I’m going for my own enjoyment. It would be good to think that others are going to enjoy it as much as I have in the past but there are no guarantees, same as with life (except death before anyone picks me up on that one!)

So stop whinging about possible line-ups, who’s festival is better than who’s, it’s like the kids argument that my dad will beat your dad, you don’t know until it happens! and just get on with it! Not everyone of 70,000 or so people will be enjoying exactly the same thing & I say each to their own! I’m not a sheep, I like what I like & dislike what I don’t, it’s just that I’m not so opinionated that someone else shouldn’t enjoy what they do, which is where a lot of you who are arguing get it wrong!

I’ve come away from festivals finding that I’ve found a new band or 2 to get into who I would have otherwise not seen, or gone out of my way to listen to. (don’t get me wrong, I would rather not see Muse at Download, but if they are? I’ll go and watch another stage!, Simple!!)

Or perhaps some of you should be organising a festival yourselves, give everyone a better choice! oh wait a festival each weekend, to maybe see a band or 2 a few people actually want to see? oh yeah that’s called a gig & they already do them!!!

Well, I’ll see some of you at Download 2010, I’ll be there with a smile on my face & a beer in my hand, not giving a shit about the money, after all it’s only a weekend!! (well until the drugs wear off & the hangover kicks in anyway!)
