Anyone go? What did you think?

I personally loved it, and went up to most peopl with a Wildhearts shirt on and complimented their taste in music, so if I went up to you, I apoligise.. lol. I met Weebleboy there (I think that's the username?).

It was sooooooo good.

Ooo I went! It was really good! People doing the GCSE's(Me included)had a Maths calculator paper, 9am on Monday morning which was interesting to say the least!

I got there after Zico Chain so I didn't see them, apparently they were alright.

Machine Head definitely made my weekend though. Without a doubt.

Well look who it is... :wink:. (This is Jake McAllister btw...)

Yeh, Machine head where really really good, I was right at the front for that :D.

I saw a few songs of Zicco Chain, there were quiet good actually, though i havne't heard any of their songs recorded, I just thought they got the crowd going. Dunno if they'd be any good on CD.

Oh, and I met Mastodon :D. Fucking brilliant weekend.

Ooo ello there!

Yeah loads of people met Mastodon! Was it in the signing tent or something? I technically me Machine Head. My friend fainted by the backstage entrance thing just before their set, so we got taken to the steps leading up to the stage. Then Machine Head walked past, asked the security guard what was going on then looked over smiled and waved! Oh aye that's my claim to fame!

Btw does anyone know what actually happened to MCR? I heard the crowd just got up and left half way through a song but I'm not sure if that's true.

Great weekend. Motley Crue were the highlight, definitely. As for MCR, there were only about 12 people watching them, and half of those were throwing bottles of piss at them.

I heard Motley Crue but was in the middle of looking for one of my friends so had to run off. What I heard sounded good though.
Yeah I thought it was something like that. I walked past at 10:20pm and they had already left the stage, 20mins before they were due to.

I saw Motley Crue at Manchester Apollo on tuesday and was really disapointed.
Tommy never played due to injury(apart from piano intro to Home Sweet Home and drums on Kickstart..),Vinces vocals were shocking and Sixx looked like he couldn't be arsed.There was only Mick who saved the gig.
After the immense gig at M.E.N Arena that they did 2 years ago this was a travesty.
Main highlight was the soundman played 'Nothing Ever Changes' and 'V Day' through the P.A. before Motley came on.
£35 for a ticket too,I feel a bit violated!!
