Download Festival 2023 Vlog 

Thankyou for filming this! Super nostalgic!

Amazing vlog! This was my first Download and it was a blast! (Apart from the traffic and parking issues). I found your channel recently with the advice on what to bring and it really helped. I think I saw you in front of me during Pendulum but didn't want to disturb you.

Yo, it's me Preston, and this is sick and I think it's gonna absolutely rock next year, especially since I'm there 😜! See you next year Simon!

ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR BOYS

All looking sufficiently sweaty right abaaaoouut naaaoow

Awesome video! Gutted I missed it, definitely booking for next year after watching this. Looked insane!

Another great Vlog Simon. 🤘 It was lovely to meet you and Vicky, along with others from the Discord. Look forward to seeing you all again next year, and all the best for the wedding xx

Great vlog! Was good to see some of the bands I missed due to clashes. Had a blast, thought it was a great weekend. 🤘

Saw you guys wonder past! Was a brilliant weekend - my first download and solo! Now I’m hooked 🤟🏻

Was great meeting you lot on the Wednesday! Hopefully next time I run across you more than once. I may have had some minor annoyances with my first festival but overall it was a great experience.

Such an insane video 🔥 smashed it, subbed

Great stuff 🤘

Another awesome video, Simon!

Thanks for vloging download! Im from the states...have always wanted to go to it! We have festivals here in the states but nothing compares to download! Rock on from the states!!

Ayyyye literally round corner from my camp, went for my first downlaod this year and was fantastic and just blew my mind. Cnat wait for next year!!

Awsome coverage brother!! Greetings from Brazil

Metallica and BMTH both fantastic, what a fantastic vlog, your all great people , very much worthy of a sub, Subbed! Cheers

Amazing as always cocker ❤

Nice work dude, was hoping to bump into you Dear Download boys, maybe next year.

Great vlog as always

Brilliant vlog as always, bring on download 2024

GrEAt coverage of Metallica and the amazing BMTH. Seen them in Sheffield 21. And they're unbeaten for best live concert I've seen. From the stage set up,just everything. I was nervous because I'd heard bad things about Oli live. But he killed it. He's loving adding the growl's too😊. I hope they release that version of butterflies/nihilist blues 💙. Soooo good. Wish I could have been there,would have seen a lot of bands. Sounded like best so far. So proud of BMTH. From being the most hated to headlining the fest and getting nothing but positive responses. People saying they weren't even fans but we're the best of the weekend ❤

Great blogg by the genuine nice bloke here 2next year

my first download and it was great :)

Random bird appears and wonders why everyone is crouching down. Brilliant! Great vlog again, hope to meet you at Bloodstock.

Fantastic vlog as always! Glad you had a great time at Metallica twice!

Fantastic vlog buddy. We had an amazing time and I’m still gutted it’s over, bring me stole the weekend and was right at the front for every headline set. I’ve just got the taste of dust out my mouth from the Sunday, Jesus Christ. WHAT A WEEKEND !!!

You walked right past me on Sunday but I was too shy to shout and say hi, maybe next year!? Loving the video as always!!!

Great Vlog dude! Was awesome to meet you hopefully catch you at bloodstock🤘

Ah I did see you in the village but you looked like you were on a mission at the time so I didn't want to stop you! Glad you had a good time! Fab video!

Love the mettallica ending

I can't believe I was stood right behind you after Metallica on Thursday and I didn't realise😩

I was one of the unlucky ones, I was 2 miles out at 15:30 on Wednesday. The West car park was over sold so I had to crawl all the way to the North car park, get checked in at midnight at the east gate, and then walk all the way to quiet at 01:00. I put my tent up and went over to the district X tent at 2AM. To be honest the traffic management was a joke. Shame I never bumped into you, as I leaned a huge amount before going from your vids. Oh I like your X Pole in the spare room, my Mrs has one in the living room ;)

Megaaa - saw u guys at anti saint but had to shoot pretty quickly after for fever 333 😂 catch u next year

Smashing VLOG sir, take me back!

niceeee love your vlog! I tried to do one too, really good to look back on :D

It was an honour to be your photographer for the weekend dude. 🤘 see you at bloodstock

I’ve watched this 5 times now 😳😁❤️🤘🏻

Was looking out for you dude but unfortunately never bumped into you! Was just infront of you for neck deep aswell 😂 was an awesome weekend, hopefully catch you for the next one 🤘🤘 brrraap

I was standing right next to you at Metallica on the thursday :)

This year was my first download. Was amazing. I was literally a stone's throw from your camp (pirate flag on the walkway by the pee wall lol) gutted didn't get a chance to say hi

Great vid as ever. Gutted didn't bump into you.. Maybe next year? What camp did you stay in this year?

The only thing I ignored you on was not bringing my own ale am glad with the coops poor showing this year

I've never heard of half of these alt metal bands so I can check out some new music without going broke and getting sunburnt, so thanks for that \m/

Slipknot 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

Another epic vlog from u Simon ur one of the best RU-vidrs out there dude part from chidzvidz iv course hahaha I’m definitely coming next year got my ticket already buzzing

Fucking joey Valence and brae!! When I was doing my research and discovered these I was proper buzzing. So glad they played and I saw them, loved it. Great vlog mate, a bit different to some of the others I've watched. You don't just show you and your mates getting fucked up, you show the bands and the crowd and the hare... The only problem I have with the vlog is it makes me desperate to go back, and it's still over 11 months away!!

Being at the front for Metallica both nights had me balling my eyes out

I was sat right next to you when pendulum were on but I was scared to say hi lmao 😂😂

Great video , don't think you covered enough of the issues though . I've been going for 20 years and organisational wise this was the worst one yet

comedy tip, the start of wednesday would have been funnier if Vicky was still doing her hair in the opening shot!

Would’ve loved to have met you, but the fact that I was in the front area for every single headline, as well as at least one or two acts before them, I was way to far away to spot you. I was also in red camp, on the complete opposite side of the festival lol.

Thanks for including us in the vlog! Talk with you and Adam soon!

How did you get away with all that space though 😂 we had some one pitch up under our back guide ropes

Amazing content yet again mate! Will you be at 2000 trees again this year?

First

Hope u had a wedding day bro

I was one of the ones you forgot to take a picture with and i forgot to take one too , i was the twat who interrupted your lunch in the village . The first timer lol

what camp was you on?

What's up w matt's voice from 3dg saw them last year September I think and sounded way better but missed them at download

Looked out for you but unfortunately didn't see you

did i ask you who sews on your patches and get your name wrong?😅

For Metallica night 2 i managed to catch a vid of James smiling at me and Kirk and Robert playing ‘wherever I may roam’ right in front of me, such an insane download this year! 🫶🏻

Crush your cans...obviously,take up a shit load less room

Such a good weekend it was... Here's the video I've done ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L00fd2E1xWc.html
