Download Festival 2006...

Well what can i say?

IT RUUUUULEEEEEEEDDDDDD!!
AS USUAL.. LOL

I prosume most of you have already heard about the 'rioting' lol most people are going on about it like. It was pretty shitty that they had to ruin it for a lot of other people, luckily it didnt bother me or dean in the slightest. We ended up getting a good night sleep at about 2/3am and ignoring all the explosions lol

Unfortunately i cannot say the same for our neighbouring tents, Matty and Emma stayed up all night (i prosume they were worried sick.. i would be if it was my first Download Fest) Also, the guys and girl next to us stayed up all night too, they were worried something would happen to their tent.

I woke up the next morning to see burnt out fires in tents, bins and lampostes, fallen over lampostes, and lots of police vans lol. I slept through most of the rioting lol, i didn't even know there were riot police until the next day!

I feel really sorry for everyone who just went to listen to some music and chill, now we might not ven have a 2007 Should do though! Them Download organisers aren't that pussy whipped! lol they'll fight back with extra security and more restrictions i reckon.

Anyway, enough about the lameo riot, they are twats for taking it too far and disturbing and scaring a lot of innocent people!

The toilets were the most outrageous and disgraceful thing about the whole weekend in my opinion. 'Shit Pans' i like to refer to them as. Basically a big steel container with holes for us to sit on and wee/poo into. I feel sorry for the guys! They had to stand and look at it as they had a wee, us girls just had to unwillingly take a glimps as we walked in lol. Seriously... im not kidding.. it was a container which stored all the poo wee and tissue.. all piled up throughout the weekend!

Eventually the stench of stale wee got so i couldnt go to them toilets anymore, you could smell ammonia even when you covered your mouth and nose! ROTTEN IT WAS! Luckily there was a rotten but not so disgusting toilet block for the girls to go in. Unfortunately every morning there was like a 10minute queue but believe me it was worth it!

Also, Dean wasn't a bit well throughout the weekend which sucked He had a terrible throat, headaches, and nauscia as far as i know. he thought he had toncillitus coming on but luckily its started to clear up now. Its been passed on to me My throats killing! arghhhhhhhhhhhh

AND THE HEAT! What a joke that was! Rain the forecast said, not a fucking heat wave! Stupid.. Luckily i brought Sun Blck and covered myself in it.. Dean was not so lucky. His nose might scar from the sun burn its that bad

But... it wasn't all that bad.. The bands were amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Apart from Axl and his guitarist taking hissy fits and walkin off stage, the bands were untouchable. And Will Smith was there! I wanted him to come on and sing Miami but he never! *sigh*

But this is the best thing about people being at Download....

I was sitting there at my tent looking at people walking by, and i saw this guy who looked the spit of someone called Sky from King Lizard/Quizmania. So anyway, i was gonna go over and ask him if he actually WAS Sky or if he just looked like him.. ofcourse i never though cause i felt like an ass hole going and asking. So anyway, i thought to myself 'it wouldn't have been Sky anyway...2 feet away from my tent.. ha! what a stupid idea..'

2days later on the Sunday and who do i see as im running to the grotty toilets? FLASH!

I just stared at him as he walked past me with my gob wide open! It this point i realised i had saw Sky earlier that week, and i was proper gutted that i'd never went over. Well, you ask me why didn't i bloody go and say hi?! Because i'd only just woke up, no make up on, wearing old clothes from the day before and dying for a piss! *CRIES*

I really regret it now though, i LOVE Quizmania and King Lizard should headline Download Fest! lol

Oh well.. Flash or Sky if your reading this.. HI! and hope you enjoyed Download Fest anyway without my company lol

Thats all i have to say for now.. ohhh i smuggled glass in. Im naughty! lol But think of it this way.. theres NO WAY i was gonna live without Nutella at Download this year!]

I have hundreds of pictures, and im working on an online photo gallery at the moment so the pictures will be up eventually! lol
