Yesterday Chris, Jamie and myself ventured down to the Download Festival at Donington Race course, near Derbyshire. We had Access All Areas wrist bands (apart from the main stage) so we had a pretty different festival experience to what we normally have:
Basically, better toilets, backstage access and better bars. Oh, and we also parked next to the tour bus’ as we had an Artist vehicle pass courtesy of From Autumn to Ashes.
The bands we saw:
From Autumn To Ashes
Saosin
Paramore
My Chemical Romance
Yourcodenameis:milo
bits of Velvet Revolver
We didn’t see that many bands but we still had a pretty cool day. Chris and Jamie even had their photo taken with the great Hayley Williams of Paramore, who is an exceedingly nice girl.
Thanks to Martin for sorting us out with the passes!
Pictures soon.
- Charlie.
