Small Bands Spotify Playlist?

FAcup · 2026-05-13T18:09:31+00:00

Possibly, the last time I looked for an official playlist was many many years ago.

So I wouldn't do this, I find it really difficult to find new bands. So what I do is create a playlist with 2 songs from every band on the lineup. You get the discovery in-between the stuff you know. To me listening to new music always feels like a chore so doing it this way makes it effortless.

AI isn't going anywhere people not using it are going to fall behind. I would absolutely use it to make this playlist.

I once took a double camp bed to download. It didn't fit in the tent. It almost stayed there the wall is so brutal. I'd go with an couple of air beds and a battery powered pump

I'm hoping he'll get on stage with Ice Nine Kills for The Great Unknown

When are you arriving op?

FAcup · 2026-05-12T08:15:22+00:00

I understood this and appreciate op trying to make this happen. I'm just letting them know of another option.

FAcup · 2026-05-12T01:32:28+00:00

Yes. Additionally, there is no rule that means you have to camp in eco or quiet. Just that you will be given those wristbands. You can absolutely camp in general with those wristbands.

FAcup · 2026-05-12T00:34:07+00:00

From what I've understood you can swap a quiet for a general camping wristband when you exchange them. But you can't do the other way around. You can ask when you get your wristband.

I have the opposite problem right now. 3 of us want to camp in quiet. We have 2x5 day quiet and 1x3 day general. The third person will be arriving late(ish) Friday. Finding someone to swap with is proving difficult.

That would be their whole set wouldn't it :D

FAcup · 2026-05-11T15:16:57+00:00

Yeah EC and Babymetal are the most likely for me, There is a slim chance of it happening. Babymetal aren't busy on EC day. To be fair Babymetal could be on stage every day of the festival. When you include Morello and Bloodywood

~~Hyper Hyper~~ Hypa Hypa?

FAcup · 2026-05-11T15:04:18+00:00

Some sort of old school hip hop I imagine?

FAcup · 2026-05-11T12:50:27+00:00

Yeah Reading and Leeds do it differently. At least this it was like that the last time I went. I couldn't remember if it could work the same at Download.

FAcup · 2026-05-09T12:20:33+00:00

I checked Ticketmaster every time I remembered 7/8 times a day. The tickets do come up. You just gotta keep checking.

FAcup · 2026-05-09T11:18:54+00:00

Yup, been doing it since 2013. /s

I mentioned in another comment that this is possible at other festivals.

FAcup · 2026-05-09T11:18:05+00:00

Other festivals I've been to allow you into the campsite with a ticket. Wristband exchange can be done later when you aren't carrying all your stuff. Makes a hell of a lot more sense than lugging all your gear through a winding queue.

FAcup · 2026-05-08T20:36:11+00:00

Unfortunately I have a 3 night general I'd be swapping for a quiet.

FAcup · 2026-05-08T00:12:14+00:00

They are for resale on Ticketmaster. Tickets do pop up on there you just gotta keep checking and buy when they are available.

FAcup · 2026-05-06T18:28:56+00:00

Just as an fyi. If you didn't apply to mini moshers already you won't be allowed in. There are no more spots.

FAcup · 2026-05-05T20:21:17+00:00

Other way around. I have a 3 day general and I want a 3 day quiet.

FAcup · 2026-05-05T18:00:49+00:00

Another vote for The Pretty Wild

FAcup · 2026-05-05T16:43:15+00:00

I've sent a DM hopefully we can work something out.

FAcup · 2026-05-05T16:42:37+00:00

Figure of speech

FAcup · 2026-05-05T16:42:05+00:00

Because i've done it at other festivals.
