I'm finally getting round to checking out the unknown bands playing this year at bloodstock and have hit a snag with the band 'Warhorse' I can't seem to find their music anywhere, if they're the doom metal band i can find on youtube-fantastic but I get the distinct feeling they're not, anyone found any videos of them i can peruse?

The band playing BOA is this one, I don't know whether it's the same band as you've found though.

See, I found the website but theres no way to listen to any of their stuff on it.

Hmm, found a way to manage to have my waist bag and bullet belt on at the same time comfortably. But it does mean that whenever I need to piss I'll have to take the bullet belt off, instead of just hitching it up round my waist like I normally do. Combined with lots of booze and festival toilets, I don't think this is the best idea...

She-wee.
I've never tried one, but everyone I've met that's used one says they would never not bring one to festivals now.

^ I can't understand how it would work with tights or leggings. It seems designed for trousers with flys, like a super-extendo-penis for unfortunate women born without one. It seems like skirt/tight wearer would have to stand with their tights round their thighs. Which is just as weird as squatting down in full view of everyone.

FFA: Machine Head's first album is pretty good.

I like The Blackening and From Ashes. Everything else ranges from terrible to so-so, to me.
If I like it, It's probably awful.

Clutch, Kamelot and The Ocean for BOA 2014 pls!

Forgot Ashes, my bad. The Blackening has Halo, so just about scrapes through for me.

I like bits and bobs from the various albums, but there isn't one that jumps out at me as being a good complete album.
Steam = Starchild

Catch me at:
2022
Nightwish - London

2023
Gojira - London
Sabaton - London

Does anyone remember how long it takes for the shuttle bus to go from Lichfield to the site?

I think it's about 20 - 30 minutes or so.

Yeah, it says 25 mins on the website.
