Any UK festivals?

[Origen]

If there is only 1 UK date why should it be in London ?

Have it somewhere in the middle of the Country.

Cause there are people travelling from other countries to see them, like me.

If you can't move your ass a little bit in your own country, then don't bother going...

I would travel 560 km to go Athens and see them, and the plane costs 100 euros. I know there are cheap flights there, so take one and stop whining.

And so do you want a medal or a special little badge saying "I can travel all by myself", well done I bet them shoe laces were a bitch to get past as well.

but I'd be willing to bet it'd be just as easy and a similar price to get a flight into Newcastle airport as it is to get into Heathrow or wherever - whereas if you're stuck in a little town up North like me, you have to fork out a shitload on train fare before you can get anywhere

I woundn't bother explaining yourself dude he probably won't get it.

Maybe somebody should explain to you that you're lucky they're playing in your country?

From my experience, some people here are spoiled. They think a two-three hour car/train ride is far away.

It's not so much that a 5 hr train journey is particularly far away, it's that the train prices and fuel prices in the UK are astronomical at the moment, so of course we're wishing gigs were closer, it's kinder on the pocket, heh ?

Saying that though, I am just about to bankrupt myself by buying Download tickets, haven't even considered getting there yet!  I'm gonna be soooo poor for the next few weeks.   Worth it though!  Well, if they show, anyway!

Stockholm, where bands usually play in Sweden, is 5-6 hours away by car.....

So I know what you mean.

Rose said of the appearance: "The UK and Europe have always been special for me. After our last great shows there, we are all very excited and looking forward to getting back over there and in front of such great audiences."

He added: "Donington has always meant a lot to me personally, way before I ever played there. To be asked to headline is for me an honour and a privilege that none of us take for granted. We look forward to seeing all of you at Download!"

got this from nme site where did he say this ?

Exactly... I have no money at the moment, I have to pay 250 euros for the server of gunsnroses.gr in May to keep it alive, BUT I'll bleed myself to get the money to see them in England AND Germany.

And people who live there think it's too far...
