This year I have chosen to go to the Download Festival, a weekend of pure rock n' roll! The fact that I heard an industry rumour that the original Guns 'n Roses line-up were playing (just like their legendary Legends of Rock in '88) was the final 'twist of the arm'. And to get us all in the mood, the lovely organisers of the festival have organised some 'warm up' nights for us to jump around to and meet future camp neighbours (as in camping tent - not feminine characteristics!)
So, if you're off to Download, or haven't quite made your mind up, or if you just like some good music, here are the nights:
