Why do people leave wednesday.. im leaving friday will it matter? i cant get the time off work

[rolfea]

Get to camp for longer, drink at night and have a crazy time with other campers who also left on the wednesday...

 

costs more but half the festival is the night life! so why not start two days early!

 

Also, get closer tents to the fest.

 

leaving friday isn't a huge biggie.. will just be in a further back campsite.

yeah be prepared to trek. though the only really annoying walks are the first and last when u lugging all your kit.

ok asking this here but also going to start thread as this one has select few readers by looks of it.

Basically they released all the times now and i want to create a graph like time line that shows when each band starts and finishes for each stage so for each day i can have 4 rows (1 for each stage) and have the bands displayed as diff colours so i can see the overlaps and times.

all got the mental image?

right what program can I use/ how can I do it? or has anyone made one already?

Excel!

 

You can create that kind of thing through directly editing and formatting the cells to look like a table or you could even create a Gantt Chart.

I have attached an Openoffice spreadsheet for Reading that you can edit for Download.

Or you could use Microsoft Project, if you have a license?

 

Or if you want it to look pretty more than it is practical use Visio? But that would be a brave idea, it's not really suited for that.

 

Anyone seen the weather forecast?

Looks like wellies rather than flip flops

I was thinking sandles rather than wellies as wellies rub and sandles are easy to clean

 

after i finished changing this reading spreadsheet ill post it on here

wooo done, edit: just realised it prints terribly unless you print by selecting the cells for each day

I recommend Forever Never on the Red Bull stage on Saturday.

 

Saw them at a gig in a pub function room near me, then a couple of months later supporting Stone Sour.

Infact, on one of their Myspace blogs you could actually see me in one of their pictures.

 

They have a really good metal sound, specially if you like Killswitch Engage or Stone Sour

 

They are an epic band and could really get some where. Check them out before hand if you get the chance

[stu]

they just added 2 more bands to the bill right after i did them sheets:mad:

Hey thanks for posting this, you know one year at Download some guy in the car park sold me one of these for a £1 (in an A4 plastic wallet) - you could make a killing!

 

When I download the zip file and extract the contents i can't view any of it. Any chance of posting it as an image or PDF or something?

 

Oh and Forever Never are wicked I agree, they played a few times in Cheltenham.

 

Thanks in advance for any help....
