Black Sabbath were amazing at Download IMO.

Deftones are great live.


I saw them at ozzfest 02 but I was barely paying attention having been stoop up all day.

I saw Deftones @ rock city in about 04, went in drunk and came out feeling about a stone lighter and sober as hell. Loved it!

Yeah I saw them in 2011, only knowing a couple of songs and it was just fantastic.



King Blues and System Of A Down on the same day. :headbang:

I hope that Trent takes Nine Inch Nails on the road again in the future. I really need to see them. :frown:
NIN are absolutely brilliant live.

They're absolutely unreal live, saw them at their last London gig in 2009. I get the feeling that he won't be able to resist going back out as NIN at some point, although I reckon it'll probably be a more stripped-down piano-based NIN rather than the classic setup.

This is from the gig I was at, whole place kicked off at 1.55

Blink 182! :biggrin:

Them or perhaps Enter Shikari

Faith No More
Soundgarden


Saw them both a few weeks ago in London. Both incredible, I'd say I had a more memorable time seeing SG, probably my fav gig. Best week of my life probably.

Caspian. I was present at the gig that they recorded a live album from. Here's a sample.

There have been some stories that he is returning to it very soon, although the focus is on studio work. I do hope they return to touring, maybe a headline set at Download. :sogood:

I was there too! Brixton or Hammersmith for FNM?

That week was mental for me; I saw FNM, Incubus, FNM again and Soundgarden.
Biffy Clyro
Band of Skulls
Bruce Springsteen
Pearl Jam
Daft Punk were epic.
White Lies :sexface:
Crystal Castles
Editors
Blink 182
The Wombats (by no means one of my favourite bands but credit where credit is due, they were good)

Surprised by how many people are saying blink-182 tbf, probably the worst gig of my life.

brixton! i had a seated ticket for hammersmith but sold it, really hate sitting. honestly i've never really been into incubus, are they any good? i know brandon boyd's hero is mike patton but i've never really got into them.
Keep Shelly in Athens. Incredible stage presence from the creepy front girl to the perfect balance of sound coming from all the various instruments.

I've never sat at a gig. Had seating tickets for Brixton FNM but managed to sneak into standing :cool:

Incubus are great. Their older stuff is my favourite, SCIENCE and Make Yourself are brilliant albums. A lot of people slagged them off for going more mellow later on, but I still really like their more recent stuff. Fantastic live as well, though not so much at festivals.
