@@DeadSetOnLiving_ Absolutely I did! I felt too burnt out after Download to vlog it, but in hindsight I should have. Never thought I'd ever get that close to Dave Grohl! 😅😂
Ah mate! By far the best bit for us about RIP! It made the Wednesday an absolute breeze but the Monday morning was the best. Chuck everything in and you’re out! Thanks for watching 😊
It was great wasn’t it?! That was my third Green Day show, but the most enjoyable by far! Yeah I can’t imagine how cool that must be to get called up on stage! Thanks for watching 😊
Stumbled across this vlog and throughly enjoyed it! I did a day ticket on the Sunday and definitely felt the vibe people were exhausted and done. It was a shame for avenged as I felt the crowd was dead! I still loved it though!
Thank you watching! We appreciation the sub too 😊 yes by Sunday we were all cooked, but we managed to find some energy for Limp Bizkit and Avenged, they were the two bands we were all looking forward to the most!
First of all, there was a 6 second slide at the beginning of the video stating that there was a lot of footage of Green Day, if you had an issue with that you should have chosen to turn the video off! I had a fantastic time, I recorded as much as I wanted to record and now I get to watch it back and remember that night as often as I want to. If you don’t like it then that’s absolutely fine, I’m not going to please everyone, but don’t come to my comments having a go at me for doing something I wanted to do, it hasn’t made any difference to your day! Thanks for watching 👍🏻
They videoed it so people like yourself could come onto RU-vid to give it a watch, which is what you have gone and done 😬 So by the sounds of it, that's a job well done 🤘🏻
Looks like you had a cracking time. I gave it a miss this year after breaking the bank for RIP last year, Looks like you had a mega time despite the mud and rain. Cheers.
@@DeadSetOnLiving_what caused the rain to come in as seen all the video now lol so not sure if you would recommend it now ? Glad you like Limp Biskit loved them since my kids were little and my youngest is 26 now lol ❤
Came across to your video randomly and was enjoying all of it. Never been to download festival, but your vlog gave me a great insight and feel of this event. And you two are a fun couple! Thank you
No worries big man, me and my daughter went this year but she got food poisoning on Saturday morning so we had to leave 😢but watching your video makes us feel like we was there on Sunday 😊
Glad you enjoyed it mate! It was great to meet you both, we really enjoying spending a bit of time with you over the weekend! We’re looking forward to seeing you all again 🤘🏻
For those asking about price but mainly want good showers and toilets try camping plus. Its right vehind the Doghouse tent. Its 383 for full 5 days and has the same showers and toilets as RIP for half the price. One day when my body gives up ill go RIP but for now cant justify double the price considering im paying for 3 people. Cant see it being too much longer. Wednesday we woke at 4 and partied in Doghouse till 3am 😂Great vid!
Just Subscribed - 15 mins in and really enjoying it (thought I’d beat the guy who said 17 mins 😂) Honestly though, love watching anything download related. Have bought Park Farm again for next year.
I may be one of the only people that doesn’t know Fear Factory! I’ve heard a lot about them but never given them a listen. Maybe I should! 😊 thanks for watching!
Ayyy nice one! Smashed it getting this uploaded so quick. Been editing my vlog ferociously since Tuesday... it's been taking an age! 😅 I'm enjoying your vlog during my little editing breaks haha!
@@DeadSetOnLiving_ No problem, and yeah had a great weekend thanks! Keep running into all sorts of issues with editing my video… but fingers crossed I’ll have it up soon haha 😅
Sorry I’m gonna be invasively nosey , how much for the RIP TICKET & Camping ( price before you stepped on to the site ) . I’m not 25 any more , I’m an old sod who wants comfort and clean toilets with no queues preferably…lol…thanks guys ❤
Thanks for watching! 😊 So Ticketmaster change the price based on demand. We got ours last year for £750, which was very early one. The price currently for 2025 is at £778, but if they start to sell quickly Ticketmaster will increase the price. That price includes festival entry and RIP camping for 5 days 😊
Thanks mate! 😊 I kept my eye out for you having watching your 2023 vlog and the Slamdunk one in the build up to Download, but I didn’t see you! I watched your vlog this morning, really enjoyed it! Turns out you were camped right by our friends who we visited a few times over the weekend, they were near the North Korea flag too!
@@DeadSetOnLiving_ Oh nice one mate thank you! If you are at Bloodstock, or next year's download, give me a shout! :) Hahaha that bloody flag. Peace! -matt
Me and the Wife were at the Rock Retreat, and I'll tell you something off the bat... I have never been to a campsite that had so well maintained toilets and hot showers, with no more than a few minutes wait every time we queued. They put buses on every half hour to and from Castle Donington. For the record, this is my first "Download" festival, but I went to many Monsters of Rock concerts before it became what it is now. Definitely going next year. Edit: we have the same tent you have, pmsl! Nice touch with the butt-plugs too.
Thanks for watching 😊 we drove past rock retreat on our way out but I wasn’t sure what it was! That tent has been brilliant since we’ve had it but unfortunately the rain was too much for it this year! The illuminated butt plugs survived though 😂
@DeadSetOnLiving_ pms, nice one. I'm in the Rock Retreat WhatsApp group. Maybe see you next year mun! It was just myself and the Wife. We did meet another couple from Wales but their tent died on the Friday and had to get an hotel for the rest. I'm following and I'll keep checking in. We do other concerts all over too. Be safe Brother. 🙏
Unfortunately yeah anyone in RIP has to buy an RIP ticket! People in general camping camp pay to go into RIP and use the facilities if they wish, I think it’s about £50 per day for that!
Really appreciate that, thank you! 😊 Download is the best place. Even when the weather is like it was this year, everyone comes together and has the best 5 days! Thanks for watching!
I literally just got that same air bed this year for myself! So stoked to try it out and hopefully get a proper posh night's sleep in that and a new black-out interior tent setup. Will also be in RIP (I opt for that every year. Worth. Every. Penny.)🤘
Thanks for watching Steve! We’ve not even got it out of the box but I’m sure it’ll be absolutely lovely! We’re going be in Sleepy Hollow, any idea what the ground is like there for pitching your tent?
@@DeadSetOnLiving_ I’ve always camped in the Park Farm bit so I’m not quite sure to be honest. If memory serves, I think there’s a very slight incline on that area of RIP so that may affect some of the levelling of your set ups. I could be wrong though, I’ve not been in that area much.
