Yes that is a relevant number, work it out.

Convectuoso

I'll be there too. At the side of the stage if all goes to plan

Mozeley

I'll be there.

Question: Has anybody else received their tickets yet? If not, got any idea when they're meant to arrive?

Cheers,

Moze

Can I join you at the side of the stage?

That's assuming they even do day tickets. I think it depends on how well weekend ticket sales go on whether they bother doing day tickets. I might be wrong though

I'll be there anyway! Though it's damn annoying that the tickets come so late! I'm at uni but the ticket has to get sent to my home address because it needs to be sent to the billing address of my credit card. Haven't actually figured out what I'm doing to pick up my ticket yet

Gotta see if it pans out first and what restrictions there are. As it stands now i'm with the civilians. lol

If it's looking likely i'll post details. Sure there'll be plenty of takers




Edit:

From the Download website:

"
DAY TICKETS TO GO ON SALE FOR DOWNLOAD

PLUS EVEN MORE BANDS CONFIRMED

With just 6 weeks remaining until Download 2006 finally arrives, individual day tickets will go on sale on Wednesday 3 May at 9:00am. These tickets are strictly limited and priced at £55 each, demand for these is sure to exceed availability.

With such an outstanding line-up, and impeccable reputation for quality, weekend tickets for this year's festival have sold faster than ever before. Campsite spaces are only available with weekend tickets and the very last of these are now on sale with less than 6,000 campsite spaces still available. Book now to avoid disappointment.

£55 to see Tool at Download? I'm still unsure if I'll go, already seeing them at the Apollo and money's tight.

But then I remember how seldom Tool tour, I'd only go on the day to see Tool anyway. I probably will, haha.

kingred

i have a ton of friends going to download. its the local festival for me back at home.

they usually end up stealing half the stuff on sale lol. theiving pikeys :o

um, well not actually I'm not, though I will be going to London for two weeks in June and seeing Thee Silver Mt Zion Memorial Orchestra (twice), Carla Bozulich (three times) and Tool (once) there. It'll be an awesome week.

So, how are you Kam? I've been seeing lots of people from back in the day recently, its endearing to know we're all still around, doing our own thing. Anyway, take care. Send me an email (foetal at hotmail dot com) or MSN me sometime. I'd love to chat.

Amir.

Anyone notice that there are only 8 bands on the main stage on friday as opposed to 10 bands on saturday and sunday? Could this mean that Tool will get longer stage time than the headliner normally does?

not necessarily; at other european festivals the first day starts later but ends at the same time as the second and third day. (Because of the people still having to arrive at the festival on that first day. On the other days, they are already there so the bands can start earlier.)

I'll be there, right on the right hand side of the stage watching Danny and Justin. Paid the whole £135 just to see Tool and celebrate my friends birthday. Should be an amazing experience!! Aswell as seeing them on the 13th and 14th June.

Anyone, got any ideas for there setlist? Do you know if it will be different from there American shows they're doing now?

Im hoping they'll change it for the european shows, its more than likely they will. Last tour, the UK were the first to get to hear 'The Patient' so hopefully will get something different added this time round!! Loving the setlist at the moment, but would love for them to add 'The Grudge' 'Wings/10,000 days'. Wings for Marie and 10,000 days would be amazing live if it were raining! But still amazing nonetheless.

I have finally managed to scrape together enough cash to get a ticket for download and they sell out! Can anybody recommend a good way of getting hold of a weekend camping ticket without the horrific scrapping at ebay?? If anybody out there has a spare ticket and would like to sell it to a dedicated Tool fan that is willing to travel to collect then please speak up now!!

Cheers, Anabolist

Rav

I just won 2 VIP tickets for Download off XFM, so I'll be there and I get to go into the artist area. I'm well chuffed!

newbornstorm

try checking http://www.scarletmist.com ...i managed to get a mate one off there...there ain't none available just now but if you keep checking one might come up...and if you are buying, use escrow...you've got a better chance of not getting ripped off.

Convectuoso

I was in that are a few years ago and it's pretty good. The main perk is there's a nice bar and places to sit.

Rav

I'm most looking forward to being able to take a shit without fear of some drunken cunt shoving the portaloo over and also being able to shower in the morning too.

Loveboat Captain

Suns Of The Tundra(Peach, Justin Chancellors old band) will be playing with Tool at the download festival on the 9th of June. Sorry if I've posted this in the wrong bit, I just had no idea where it would fit on the forum so feel free to move it or whatever.

Is anyone going to Download?

How many 10,000 days songs do you think they'll play?

I'm going. How do you mean "they will be playing with Tool"? Will they just have a couple of cameos here and there?

No I just mean they are playing the same day as Tool.

Yeah I tried to get peoples attention about this at the Download forums, but nobody seemed to care.

I think it's great, it'd be amazing if Justin played with them for a song or two.

Anabolist

Cheers Newbornstorm, I've managed to find (read 'buy') a ticket now, but cheers for the reply :-)

Can't wait!

Rav

Deftones are on just before Tool...what do you think the chances of Maynard coming on to 'The Passenger' are?

TTBIDA

I've been wondering that, have they ever done it before?

In other news, my ticket arrived this morning, YIPPEE!

Is anyone going to this show? Do you think they will be a collaboration with Suns Of The Tundra(Peach) or even a reference?

There's quite a few topics about this, but anyway.

I hope Justin joins the Tundra to play You Lied or something, I also hope Henry Rollins joins Tool to play Bottom, and it'd be cool if Maynard joined Alice in Chains for a few songs.
