DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL 2023 VLOG
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- First in what should be 2 vlogs from download festival. The second will be footage from another camera and will be a vlog / documentary hybrid. unless too much of the footage is lost or unusable.... check out Simon bond on RUclips for his vlog where I’m sure to pop up. He does weekly vlogs about music and festival related stuff and is far more knowledgeable than I am in both fields.

Also him and Adam cox do a podcast together called dear download which you can find on all streaming sites and also on here.

Met you and Simon on Wednesday night at the doghouse tent for about 30 seconds. Thanks for being welcoming! Hope you enjoyed the festival lads.
Thank fuck a positive reaction to DL23! Had to sell ticket because I didn’t get the annual leave from work. But was getting depressed reading all the posts on the Facebook groups.
Your vlog cheered me right up and reminded me how great DL can be if you go with the right attitude and good people.
Already bought 2024 ticket so hopefully catch you there 👍
I’ll probably get mine by the end of the week
I would have left my job! Haha
I was right at the front for Metallica both nights. I balled my eyes out lol
They were great! I also came out of there with a new love for AC/DC 🤷♂️😂
Been waiting for this one! My first one since 2018, was a scorcher for sure
I was so drained that Sunday! I mustered up the energy for certain bands but was on the floor a lot of the day 😂
Didn't spot you or simon sadly but i'm glad you had a great time like i did x
Great vid nice 2 meet and Simon fuck me it was hot here’s 2next year
Nice to have met you in the Village on Weds dude, loved getting the sneak peek/back story of the Slipknot jacket before it made RUclips 😂💪
It was lovely chatting to you. Can’t remember if I recorded you or not. If so you’ll most likely be in the second Vlog 🤘
@@chidzvidz haha no I don’t think you had the camera out then, looking forward to seeing the next instalment though 😁
Bro I could hear machine head 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Are you going to bloodstock again this year?
A vlogging master class!
Pleasure to have met you brother 🍻
Wear your mother f***king wellies!
Looking forward to your download Vlog. Been a while since I did rip. Next years prices are steep. I’ve slept on it and still don’t know if I’m gonna do it or not.
I was there for slipknot, amazing.
My first download and it was epic, thank you for your Vlogs for inspiring us to go! Hope to meet you next year man! 🤘🤘
best in the game love it
Been looking forward to this! Gonna watch with a beer later
I’m very tired and haven’t looked over it. If you spot anything bad let me know 😂 hope you had a good one man
@@chidzvidz I actually wasn’t there, I’ve not been to a Download in a very long time! I live vicariously through you now haha
Ah gutted. It was great man. As you might have been able to see
Ben i take my hat off 2 u and Simon I saw u loads over the week only once did u have your camera out plus basically working while every one else is partying and 2 volggs as well fair play mate
It’s literally fuck all effort to film tbh been doing it so long I don’t even notice. I try to make it as different as I can each year. The editing is the actual work. Which I do in my alone time. Glad you enjoyed them. Hopefully I can keep them fresh each time and people still want to watch
do people not mind you and adam chattin at 7am in the mornin lol ?
I doubt it. Your either completely out of it. Or the planes and other goings on will wake you up before a few people chatting
Class Vlog as always Chidz! Just like re-living the week through your perspective.. Glad to see you had a class time mate!
Ayyy you’ve smashed this out well quick 🤘 glad you enjoyed
Thanks for the shoutout, was nice to finally meet. if you’re at Bloodstock will deffo see you there, we’ll sort something out 🤘
Yeah. Was keeping my eye out all weekend hoping to saw you again 😂
@@chidzvidz I was looking out for that bright pink top! 😂
Left sat night to go see The prodigy at parklife. Amazing set! Terrible festival 😂 made the issues at Download this year look like a minor inconvenience.
Oh really? Did you come back for the Sunday?
@@chidzvidz Ahhh my bad , left after Metallica Sat & missed the Sunday completely. So it was nice to see some footage of it here 🤘
You dodged a bullet heat wise but the bands on Sunday were great.
I bought a shirt that was too small just before Download and someone suggested to put it on a jacket. I wasn't sure how it would look but your Slipknot jacket looked great so I might try it. Great vlog as always dude.
Yeah do it! It’ll look better on a jacket too
Who's leg tat is it at 25:40? That's awesome!
It’s crazy good innit? It’s a guy in our group called Dean. I’ll leave it at that just to respect his privacy. But yeah great guy with some great art work on him.
Cheers for the privacy respect Chidz, much love and great video!
@@dean564 Cracking tat mate, mind me asking the artist?
They sold the hoodies in the arena, I was in the que for about 3 hours but I managed to get a DL hoodie with a alter bridge shirt, parkway drive shirt, re-useable cup and a DL patch.
Nice one man. Would love a hoodie but need a hoover for the house so really should go back to just the t shirts 😂
Can I ask Ben u have stayed in both is r I p worth the extra money
It was and I’d say it still is if you have the money. I came very close to buying an early bird rip ticket. Which was £615. I had to think for a minute, given those tickets have risen way higher than normal camping over the last few years. Last I saw they were £755.00 so I decided against it. Seems sold out for now. But yeah the showers, having your car next to you. Having a pub and your own live music etc. it’s tough going back to normal camping though and you will get the ich to go back but with me having a mortgage and a house to furnish it’s just not on the cards right now
@@chidzvidz I stayed in black camp it was only 2 mins from my car tbh I had such a great time I think I might stay in general camping cheers 4 the advice
It depends on your preferences too I guess. I’ve been back in normal camping for the last 5 festivals.
Loving your bottom gasman tee ❤ lol
So I went to this download and I must admit I hated it, I wanted to leave Thursday night because I was having such a poor time. I will never return to one it was so bad
Sorry to hear that man. Been going since 2009 and not had a bad year yet. It’s not for everyone though. Perhaps try a day ticket. That way you can experience it without the camping
That was great that mate! Watched it with a beer and it was like i was there!
Just watched Simon's vlog now enjoying yours cheers bud, Subbed
I just subbed back as I enjoy me some craft beer. Got a few in the fridge ready for some Tuesday night tins episodes i sometimes do 😂 👍
@@chidzvidz cheers pal much appreciated 👍
Didn’t you visit our Janey for a massage? VIP area? fix me up?@
42.00 👍👍🤣🤣
No that wasn’t me 😂 I have considered a massage there in the past and definitely needed one!
@@chidzvidz she hires a pod in the VIP area, and does massages, next year your welcome to stay on my boat, I sure it’s more comfy than a tent, but then again it’s the atmosphere of it all!
I try to do something different every year. A boat sounds incredible! Must be really refreshing after being in that hot sweaty arena all day
@@chidzvidz I live on a narrowboat 👍🤣
That’s so awesome. I was debating van life, boat life or house a couple of years ago and chose the boring option 😂. How far from the festival do you bring your house?
36:51 song name plz?
Witchcraft by pendulum. Sorry for the 4 month gap in response 😂 you probably either found it or don’t care by now
@@chidzvidz i found it and forgot it again😂
Have you ever run into anyone from TPDTV?
No. Believe it or not I wasn’t aware of them until I think 2018 maybe as I didn’t really watch vlogs. But I’m definitely aware of them now. They have a great thing going and their channel is great.
40:04 yeah….. that’s me haha there is many more around the site. I was there celebrating my 40th and as part of. Few surprises, my group put these stickers everywhere haha 😂😂
😂 love it. Happy birthday mate. I turned 40 in December can’t imagine having it around download time I’d probably end up in hospital
@@chidzvidz thanks mate. Was very good but I am rather broken today haha. But totally worth it!
Very impressive to put a festival that large together! I mean what do they do with that much poop…. Altogether amazing …sound system on that main stage was so impressive …people miles away could hear it clear a.f.
Didn’t hear one bad set all weekend
Hmmmm I found the sound balance off for pendulum though bass/kick from syths was too low but was fine on drums until drum kicked in I thought the subs were just down but nope 🤷
Can I just say this guy and Simon were so friendly always nice 2 meet some u follow keep up the good work
Thanks man appreciate the kind words just as I get ready to finish Vlog number 2 before bed. Back to work in the morning ☹️
@@chidzvidz no probs it was my 1 st time at download your and simons vids do make it easy 4 newcomers and 4 the record just by coincidence I ended up in a Sendro 4 tent catch u next year
I met you on the Thursday it was great see you if I was a bit of it because I had a bad time getting in to download and I got nervous when I saw you 🤘
It can get a bit hectic there. don’t worry I didn’t have 1 bad interaction and if anything I’m worried About some of my interactions just because I was sometimes really drunk and loud 😂Hope you had a great festival🤘
@@chidzvidz yes I did have the best time and it was nice to finally meet you there 🤟
Class video again Ben! Ardderchog 😂
Diolch yn dew 🤘
Cracking a cold one watching this. Who impressed you the most ?
Bloody wood, Lorna shore, joey. Valance and bray and Metallica who just gained new respect from me. I didn’t see one bad performance this year and that might be a first.
@@chidzvidz nice! I saw Metallica in Manchester couple years back were so good. Think I mentioned while ago in a previous comment did you catch a glance at the damnation line up happening this November in Manchester something might catch your eye ?
That rings a bell yeah. I’m currently trying to decide wether I’m going to bloodstock or not
We’re in the uk do ya live?
North wales
@@chidzvidzoh sweet because I was wondering since you were near Tamworth services lol
And Jesus Christ how long dose it take ya to get down there !!
Takes me 30 minutes ❤❤
Love these videos keep them up for as many years as you can
( hoping one of this year )
Cheers
Normally I would t pass Tamworth services. That was the proposed meeting place. Won’t be doing that this year though as I don’t want to pay the m6 toll just to meet up
@@chidzvidz yeah fair enough
What’s it like camping because I’m thinking about going
Could you give me an idea if you don’t mind mate ?
Well I’ve done it for so long that I’ve forgot the struggles. As long as the weather is good. You should be fine. It’s quite a trek to get set up though.
Lovin the Bottom tee!!! 😊
Never wear white at a festival though. That dust never gets out from around the neck.
booked my tickets for next year !
Was gonna do the same but keep changing my mind on going rip or not 😭
@@chidzvidz haha. i’ll be in eco camp :)
Awww he has friends this time 😂
😂
