Glad the sound guys got something right on the mainstage.

Imagine Jimmy Carr's dying seal laugh but worse, Sounded so false and made my balls crawl into my body. The fool with the acoustic guitar that knew about half a chord and the guys whose entire music collection was a Dio covers album that they played on repeat during the whole weekend.

Were you the guy that shouted (Saturday I think ?) "get a proper laugh for fuck's sake", at about 7AM ? Made me smile over my first beer of the day.
The boys with the speaker were playing Tyketto, Journey, Dio-era Sabbath, Manowar, and actual Dio, you heathen - had a great time with them & their encyclopaedic knowledge of great guitar solos.
I don't suppose you approved of our Sonata Arctica ballads / Manowar DEMON WHIP ! / Motley Crue soundtrack ?

- A deterioration in the overall lineup in my very humble opinion, but of course if they're selling more tickets than ever then they're doing something right. It's just it's turning into Download when it should be offering something distinct from it...

Given the festival is about 1/5th the size of Download, I don't see how you can say it's not offering something distinct from it. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't a huge fan of the line-up this year but when your main stage sub-headliners are Emperor, Cannibal Corpse and At the Gates, I don't see how you can compare the line-up to Download.
Just because Fozzy and Devil Driver played I wouldn't say that's cause for panic.
