11-11-11 = Black Sabbath

[SRN]

I think I just creamed my pants.

[GA!]

Me too.

[Matt]

Aaaaaaand that's me booking Download. I was almost certainly going after Metallica were announced, now I'm definitely going.

[Nerf]

Holy shit you have just made my night.

[METALMAN]

knew this was gonna happen. Was in the Sun or the Metro or some other diddy paper last week.

[VerbalPuke]

Christ, I hope they come my way, Black Sabbath is one of my absolute favorite bands. I'd absolutely love to see them live, they're just such a fucking great band, even if they are considerably older now. They have one of the greatest sounds of any band that ever existed.

[SRN]

I don't even care if I have pay over $10,000 for the ticket, I MUST see Black Sabbath if they hit Denmark. It must happen.

[DFF]

EWB Download meet-up?

[Gazz]

EWB Download meet-up?

Do it SRN

[Matt]

Needs to happen.

How much are Download tickets? I've never been.

[Summers]

Having seen Sabbath before, I can safely say you all suck.

[SRN]

I thought you were good people Summers.

Also, yeah, how much are Download tickets and who can take me there?

[Rich]

£145 I believe for a weekend.

[Gazz]

£170 for 3 day camping, £180 for 5 days.

[Matt]

£145 I believe for a weekend.

£170 for 3 day camping, £180 for 5 days.

Which is it?

[DFF]

After fees and everything, you are looking closer to 200 to be honest.

[Nerf]

Yeah, it's not much less than £200 when you include booking fees and everything else.

[Summers]

Was it always 180 for the 5 days? I swear I never paid more for going on wednesday, and I did that every year.

[Gazz]

Was it always 180 for the 5 days? I swear I never paid more for going on wednesday, and I did that every year.

You didn't, they changed it last year, I got my price off the Download website, they're selling 'early bird' tickets at 2011 prices, I'd expect 2012 to be more expensive.

[Summers]

that's fucked. You pay an extra 30 quid to sit in a field with your friends, drink your own alcohol and buy burgers for 3 quid a piece.

They've always done early bird tickets, while I too expect a price rise they've done them before even when the prices remained the same a few years ago.
