What Connects Roy From Coronation Street With Download Festival?
What has this weirdo and one of the rock events of the year got in common? Find out inside!
In year’s past, you would hear shouts of “TIMMY!!!! NGRARGH-MUNANG-GALARGH TIMMEH!!!!” as you were about to hit the hay in your tents at Download.
More recently, you may have been just drifting off to the land of nod before someone outside your tent would enquire as to whether or not one requires a buttscratcher. “BUTTSCRATCHER??? BUTTSCRATCHARGH??? MMMM-BUTTSCRATCHAAARGH!!!!!”
This year, plans are afoot for people to keep the party going until the morning comes to the chant of “ROY!!!! RRRRROOOOOOOOOOOY!!!!!!!!” in honour of the bloke in the cafe on Coronation Street. No, we have no idea why either. All we know is that the bloke looks like a total weirdo and he’s married to a transexual called Hayley. Our mum told us FYI.
We reckon people at Sonisphere should counter this by giving it some ”RICKY!!! RICKAAAAAAY” in ode to the queen of all things ginger from Eastenders.

rrriiiiiiccckkkkyyy would be funny seeing as the ginge from eastenders was at sonisphere last year, bumped into her twice
so this is metal news is it? what people may be shouting……
I dont’t care if I sound like an old bastard for moaning about this, but it’s bent. I’m extremely glad I’m not going so I don’t have to hear pubeless little bippets away from home for the first time being gratuitously ‘crazy’. I shall return to listening to Radio 2 with my pipe and slippers. As you were.
I hated the buttscratcher thing last year, almost as lame as the 300 thing… But people will still do done exceptionally pointless shouts, they always do… Each to their own etc, as long as they enjoy it…
I’ve always been a fan of “CUUUNNNTTT!!!” myself.
Yeah thats pretty wanky…
everyone knows ‘SHABBA’ is the best! can’t beat a good chant of ‘dimebag’ of course!
people moaning about it, its just a bit of fun. i don’t care if people scream all nite, when its 6a.m and you’ve had about 20 pints u tend to fall asleep anyway!
excuse me?? we are english and thereforte we shout BOLLOX!!!
are you really trying to organize what tousands of drunk rockers and metalheads will be shouting over the weekend? how much more retarded can you get? one epic fail to hammer
wacken 2008 was spiderswein (spiderpig in german) haha
Given a certain sporting event will be near kick-off (see what I did there?), I’m expecting to also hear a fair share of “En-ger-land… En-ger-land…etc.”.
But I do second Mike’s idea!
Wtf, am I the only one that likes these stupid things to shout? What else is better to do while waiting for a band to get on stage?
Stand quietly while saluting
eeer need we forget the mighty screams of……. YA MAM !!!! lol created by yours truley lol xx
i remember plenty of ”HEY YOU GUYS” at download last year.
Nikki you say you invented the ‘your mom?’ lol you taking the piss?… And dude above you think this is a fail by Hammer? Every year there’s a different chant, this won’t be a fail, people will probs shout this bollocks…
I LOVE MY BRICK!
Yeah, Sonisphere guys can have “RICKAYYY” and then the answer to it can be “BIANCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”
