Day one of Download and the new site layout is to be terrible! The parking first of all is about 5 miles aways from the site which doesn't work when you are trying to get loads of camera equipment on site!

I couldn't even be bothered to go to stage 2 when I climbed the hill from main stage and realized it was still miles away! Luckily stage 3 was near the Kerrang! tent and I have a few things that need to be shot there this weekend... Started the day out with a wander down to main stage to shoot Black Tide. After Kid Rock cancelled last minute it was Disturbed and Mad Davey Draiman then up to the port-a-cabin to upload pics to the server.

After a little break went to the 3rd Stage for Slaves To Gravity who were amazing. Got a great shot of Toshi on stage that K! won't be able to print for obvious reasons so here it is!! Finished the night off doing a few songs of Kiss and while uploading pics Ian "Diva" Winwood had a an explosion on Nick and I for talking so we decided to head back to the hotel and sort it from there... SILENCE!! Look I don't come and bug you when you are in the pit taking photos, or something to that extent. It was pretty hilarious actually... Finished the night off harassing The Diva and drinking in the hotel bar!!
