Wishlist includes Download but can only go for Saturday / Sunday
Rock and Metal Circus in September because Breed 77 has just been announced as one of the headliners

Usual round of scooter rallies, no doubt watching second rate covers bands massacring classics, although I do get to see the brilliant Dirty Revolution at Tenby, and the highly acclaimed (usually synonymous with 'over rated' IME....) Buster Shuffle at Scarborough.

I can't be d with festivals, I like to go somewhere to see a particular band, I don't need overload.

I might do rebellion this year .

I'm wanting to experience a European festival within the next 2/3 years. Something like Benicassim (bit obvious), Pukkelpop or Groezrock would be lovely.

As for UK festivals there are only a handful I'd be interested in. Field Day, Arc Dan Gent and Beacons.

Just a fortnight ago I went to Holland to see Marillion play their bi-annual fans convention to 3,500 folk at a parcs exclusive to the band & it's fans. The gigs are played in a specially built tent with two or three support bands each night & Marillion play three different gigs with almost nine hours of music. It's the fourth time I've done that trip & it's out of this world, a big three day & night party.
In a fortnight I'm off to Hard rock hell "prog" at Rotherham's Magna centre, two days of old & new up and coming bands, it's almost a festival i suppose.

I don't do the corporate pi$$ take festivals nowadays, the fences are too high for me to climb over at my age....

Wacken would be nice.

Going to Benicassim, anyone been before? I'm pretty sure of what to expect but looking for opinions from others.

Rebellion again this year,a top five days of music

It's bloody brilliant.

2013 is the first Glasto I missed since 2002. I'm gutted to be missing it especially as the line up looks better than it has for a while.

I used to go to V and Carling Leeds but have given them a miss in more recent years since they're more of a rip off/less well organised than Glasto.

I tried Latitude in 2011 which was another rip off. I hate those festivals where you can't take your own drink into the "arena". There you couldn't even take your own water even though the taps weren't working.

I enjoyed DeerShed in 2010, The Wedding Present headlined. Smaller festivals are great but I like to have at least one band on that I like. No idea where to go this year, a mate recommends the Wicker Man Fest.

I'll take a few more answers like that.
