I have in the past few months , complained of lack of bands to go and see , and I reckon its like waiting for a bus - as none turn up for half an hour , then three turn up all at the same time – marvellous :)
I say this , as it has all turned around big style , what with Megadeath and Testament next Wed’ , Metallica and Machine Head on the 3rd of March , and ………wait for this…………………………………………………………………………………………….
................Linkin Park and Metallica are headlining a two day festival at Knebworth in August ……………HOOORAY ………………:)
The tickets are £157 including camping .............camping …!!! …. what the f**k is that ……………. oh yeah - that’s what you do with that strange looking nylon thing that’s been rotting under my stairs for the past few years …………..silly me :)
I think the chances of me sleeping in a tent in muddy , rain lashed field , after riding 250 miles on my Harley are less than zero, and to quote myself …………………”been there , done that , and got the t shirt” - …….more times than I care to imagine :)
Don’t get me wrong I enjoyed every single minute of it , and will miss the- wonderful - toxic smell of plastic bottles roasting gently on the fire , the gentle aroma of campsite toilets wafting in on the breeze , drunk /stoned people making an aggressive nuisance of themselves , over priced festival drinks and food - YUK , the plastic wannabee’s who populate festivals now a days , but my favourite is - being unable to sleep and then having the prospect of a 250 mile ride home in the rain .
You can probably guess what my accommodation plan is , and I just wonder if any of the bands maybe - have he same idea :) , as like 99% of the rock population I’d love to punch a certain whining Euro’….. right in the head :)
See I have my uses - after all :)
