This was great! I was at Ozzfest and Download 04 and 05, so great to feel the nostalgia. Regarding youngest band, I remember seeing a band called Acidtone who I swear were like 13? They were awesome 🤘🏻 Keep up the good work
Used to go to Monsters of Rock quite a lot went to Ozzfest and the first Download Not been for over a decade Going this year and will see how much Donnington has changed 😎
My friend twisted her ankle while we were there in 2004. While she was in the medical tent getting bandaged up, Dimebag came in supposedly looking for medicinal alcohol. He signed her bandage while he was there.
Was a mix of loads of stuff, some people say because GNR were crap and took their time, others say it's because they put water up and there weren't enough water points, I think it was just a mad weekend that people didn't want to end and with the heat and no sleep just went a little crazy.
09 was my first year. Faith no More, Slipknot, Korn, Zz top. Saw so many amazing bands at 13 years old forever changed my life.
Still the best year in my opinion, insane line up!
2023 heat was NO JOKE.. So much so me and the lads have invested in a gazebo.
Loved this! Been going Download on and off since 2009 so this was very nostalgic :D
😂 wasn’t expecting to see me doing the worm. Enjoyed this man it took me back.
Hahahaha, had to get you in there somewhere.
Miss watching Ralph cam getting hyped for the festival. My first year was 2011 who remembers steward 836?
Thank you for this it bought back some great memories, I was in the devildriver pit, both the drownloads and Quorn in 2006 as we called it 🤘

Whaaaaaaaat! That’s insane!
06 was my first Download. Still have no idea what the riots were about.

@@simon_bond Oh right, the water was a joke. I think it was something like £3 for a small bottle of warm water. Tbh I enjoyed GnR
I saw you at last years download but I was too shy to come and say hi 😭
We love some Download history education!
Hell's yeah brudda
MOR ran until 96, not 95. And Wicked Wisdom played 2 sets in 06, main stage on the Friday and second stage on the Saturday (hardly anyone was there)
Yeah really I should have said 94 as after that it wasn’t really MOR anymore.
Technically 96 was known as Donington
@@lukesmall3197 And 95 was Metallica, Escape the Studio. So why invlude one, without the other?
Theres some brilliant undercard bands,but some cant see past headliners and the same old big names
Mr chidz gets everywhere!
Is is everywhere and yet nowhere
I lived on Muller rice in 2008 ain't touched it since, I just can't 🤣 I also remember vaguely a beyonce bouncy castle one year 🤣
Yeah I don’t remember that bouncy castle at the time but heard a lot of people talking about it since.
I went to download in 2023 and I almost passed out it was so hot!
Yeah! I won't like another hot year but not that hot again.
@@simon_bond if it is that hot again they’d definitely need better shade! I couldn’t find any lol
