Ahhh right, i'm not so stupid, well not quite

EUROVISION WINNING LORDI

MAKE TRIUMPHANT RETURN TO DOWNLOAD

Finland?s LORDI, having just won the Eurovision Song Contest with their arockalyptic anthem ?Hard Rock Hallelujah?, will return to the festival to play the Gibson Guitar/MySpace.com stage prior to Sickofitall on Sunday 11 June.

Lordi made their Download debut in 2005 and their 2006 performance will be a triumphant return as their only UK appearance. Also announced this week are Californian extreme outfit Wicked Wisdom who are out to create music that defies boundaries and convention. Fronted by Hollywood actress Jada Pinkett-Smith (Collateral, Matrix Revelations and Reloaded, Ali) Wicked Wisdom have been confirmed to play their first UK festival appearance on the main-stage on Friday 9 June.

Final additions this week are Gojira (formerly Godzilla) one of the most extreme bands that the French metal stage has ever known who will play the SNICKERS? stage on Friday 9 June and the oddly monikered : ( [Colon Open Bracket] and emoticore outfit who have just remixed FFAF and will play the Gibson Guitar/MySpace.com stage on Saturday 10 June.

...That is great news

...Shame they're on just before GN'R so i won't be able to see 'em

[R4tfink]

Where to go?

......To the bar

To my tent for a smoke. Again!

[R4tfink]

Pepper announced last night that....

We aren't supposed to say anything, but we are playing Donnington

I was reading on the Download forum something like people shouting Timmy at 5am on the campsite was last year's fad.


Perhaps this year, this should happen. Imagine this, your dozing at 4am or something and all of a sudden from the other side of the site you hear...
































.....KKEEENNEEEEEDDDYYY!

We need to organise a meet for all thre HTGTH peeps on the Sunday before GN'R.
I have no idea how to do this.
I will no doubt be seeing Stoned and the scottish cunt before that, but for anyone else that wants to meet up, Graciela and Jarmo to name but two people, we need to organise a meet.
So we can experience GN'R together.


Rock N Roll

[babydolls]

[anythinggoes]
